We talk to our friend Tyler about his journey of faith — beginning with communalist anarchy and leading to Catholicism — as well as his experiences in the Jesuit novitiate. We ask him about this “trad” thing everyone keeps talking about, and we learn about faith versus works, sacramental love, subjectivism versus hierarchy, opening yourself to the judgement of others, the communal nature of human beings, what Jesus meant when he said he was gonna “bring the sword,” whether it’s possible to break bread with beef, gnosticism, Platonism, and more. To finish out, we play Heresy or Nah? and Tyler tells us how he realized that God wanted him to be happy.
