The Symbolic WorldThe Symbolic World388 - Mary Harrington - Identity After PostmodernismIn this conversation with Mary Harrington, we explore how identity has evolved from the ancient idea of the soul to the concept of self and today how we talk and think about identity. We dive into how technology and AI shape this shift and why bringing back the soul might help us tackle modern challenges. We argue that purpose and hierarchy clarify identity in today’s mess of competing selves. We explore how swapping deep reading for digital scrolling shifts consciousness, how memes steer thought, and the nature of AI and its affects on culture.Original YouTube version: ht...2025-04-0850 minScream and Sugar: True Crime Coffee HourScream and Sugar: True Crime Coffee HourEp 46 - Meredith Returns!

Discussing Harrington's recent article in First Things, Dr. Patrick explores the profound shift in Harrington's beliefs about freedom and family. From living in a lesbian community to embracing the joy and responsibility of raising a child, Harrington's story is a powerful testament to the concept of "freedom for" rather than "freedom from." Dr. Patrick also examines broader societal issues such as family stability, the technologizing of fertility, and the importance of moral structures in human life.  2024-08-0713 minThe Jordan B.
