Description

Episode 21 looks at chapters 30-31, which center around the themes of violence and war. 

In this episode, I start with a very brief meditation on human justifications for violence before jumping right into the content, which is divided into three parts:

1. Violence begets violence and rebounds back on itself
2. Weapons are unnatural
3. War is murder and should be mourned

(For those interested, I referenced René Girard and his Scapegoat Theory, which is well worth looking into for a deep analysis of the dynamics of violence and its purpose in human history and culture.)
