In this episode, Dominik is joined by Brendan LaFave to talk about the incongruity between education and the reality of human nature that has developed in the United States. They discuss the College of St. Joseph the Worker and how it gives a model for how education serves the whole person. This based on the Christian view of the intrinsic dignity of the human person and of the work he performs.
Salt the Earth
To 'salt the earth' typically means to sow salt into the soil of one's enemies in order to curse their land and make it infertile and unsuitable for sustaining life. Yet Jesus calls his disciples "the salt of the earth" (Mt 5:13). The proper understanding of this imagery is revealed in a covenantal worldview which sees how blessings and curses result from human actions in relation to the covenant that God has established with humanity. Our world has lost sight of this fact. In truth, it has lost much sight of reality itself. The only way to regain sanity is to see that the world is an intelligible place with a history delicately orchestrated by a super-genius mind, that there is a direction to history's movements and a consistency in the universe. This channel will endeavor to demonstrate these facts through intelligent conversation with a new generation of sane minds, and reveal the way that God intends to salt the earth and bring it back to covenant fidelity--using us.
