86. Why Suffering is Necessary for Happiness
Is Suffering Necessary for Happiness? I argue it is, and explain my position in this episode. Many people try to deal with their suffering by replacing that suffering with pleasure, but do not realize that in almost all cases -- too much pleasure turns into suffering. We also discuss the concept of Natural Law as defined by the Catholic Church, and why a return to natural virtue ethics (even if not Christian ethics) would be a huge improvement for modern culture.

85. Redemptive Suffering (A Secular Perspective)
This episode examines Redemptive Suffering from a Natural (Secular) perspective, and what ways can suffering be redemptive (that good can be brought out of it)? I mention topics such as hedonism (seeking pleasure as the greatest good), and how it is the antithesis of Redemptive Suffering; as well as how Exercise is a great example of a Natural form of Redemptive Suffering. --- Support this podcast: https://podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/parker-zurbuch6/support

83. Catholic and Protestant Views on Redemptive Suffering
In this episode, we discuss the issue of Suffering; and in particular, we discuss how suffering can be redemptive both from a natural and supernatural point-of-view via the suffering and death of Jesus Christ on the Cross. We also discuss this issue of Redemptive Suffering as regards the various Protestant understandings of it. In regard to this, I mention Dr. Gavin Ortland (Host of the YouTube channel "Truth Unites") and another mentor I had in High School; both of whom are Protestants whose insights have given me much respect for my Protestant brothers and sisters in Christ. ...

82. Franciscan School of Theology (Part 3) - Voluntarism
This episode discusses the Franciscan School of Theology's emphasis on "Voluntarism," which means that they emphasize the human person's will over their intellect. We also discuss St. Bonaventure's idea of a Tripartite (Three-Part) soul containing Memory, Intellect, and Will; the concept of Univocity within the writings of Blessed John Duns Scotus; how all of these relate to the Franciscan understanding of human nature in relation to God; and we make comparisons between the Franciscan School and the Dominican (Thomistic) School.

This episode examines issues regarding the Human Soul after Death. Does the person survive without their body, or is it just the soul that survives? This is a lively debate in Catholic philosophy and theology -- the debate between Suvivalism and Corruptionism. Survivalists: The human soul and human person survive death in the "interim" state between our bodily death and bodily resurrection at the end of time.
