In this week's episode, we dive into the work of Taleb, famed for 'Black Swan', which many see as the doomsday prediction before the 2008 financial crisis.

Is religion a scripture? Is it a tolerance (or intolerance) mechanism? Or is it just a broad set of dietary rules?

This week we dive into Nassim Taleb's article 'Religion, Violence, Tolerance & Progress: Nothing to do with Theology'. The 'Black Swan' and 'Anti-Fragile' author dives into the history and social consequences of religion beyond the mere scriptures. Speaking of diets and even intolerance as methods for the propagation of religion he opens new avenues in thinking about religion.
