I’m glad this video exists. I disagree with Pageau’s take that it must be significant that laughter is never recorded. We only get what the gospel writers thought was important to write down. By his logic we should assume the disciples never ate food if it wasn’t during a miraculous or important meal

Has no one here heard Jesus laugh? I'm a recent convert, baptized into Eastern Orthodoxy 8 months ago. But this strikes me as so very sad that we have to speculate from 2000 years ago to make it real in our imaginations. What sort of cult is this 🙂

This was absolutely brilliant... Cheers all three. St. Paul-Augustine-Dante-Eliot- Beckett-Henry Miller- Jon Fosse...the Great Chain of my becoming...........

Heard a story that after Lazarus resurrected, he laughed once when he saw someone stealing a clay pot. he said clay stealing clay 😂

A great topic for conversation Marcas and would be pleased to see more videos like this from your channel. I actually attended a Padre Pio prayer mass a while back where the priest gave a brief sermon on the obviously humourous sayings of Jesus. He highlighted the imagery of the blind man leading the blind into a pit. I also agree with Michael that it could be that any mention of laughter was edited out of the Gospels fairly early or as you say literary conventions of the time would have meant any inclusion would be deemed superfluous and inappropriate.

there is also a possibility that his laughter was redacted (as in The Name of the Rose) as a priest I know recently reminded me

Wonderful

Amazing conversation!! Thank you!!

Absolute S-tier episode! You've nonstop been killing it lately!

I *love* this idea of Paradise as a celestial million-voice motet.

I've been wanting to hear these two talk about Dante, I just never thought it would actually happen! Now we just need to get Richard Rohlin in here!

So here for this one...

I love your work, but boy oh boy, my wallet cannot handle many more of these books recommendations 🤣

Amazing podcast, God bless!

Pageau is the absolute best. Newly baptized Eastern Orthodox Christian due to his enchanting ministry

Very cool. Who does the book-cover graphics?

Great hearing you two talking about Dante!

Talk about a Christmas gift! 🎄🎅

This channel always punches above its weight. Great conversation. Keep up the good work.

James is relaxed and thorough in this interview. Such an important voice in our time!

Tell your sister to go to Harvard if she can. See what she can do.

Nice job Marcus!

This was insightful. Thank you.

Am I the only one who thinks Bernardo's outlook is nihilistic and cynical? He's just not a materialist, he's a reductionist of another kind.

Thank you, Hugh, for sharing your intellectual knowledge , God bless both of you.

My second listen and I still enjoy it so.

Irish catholicism became powerful in the vacuum left by British domination. The culture had been told it was 3rd compared to the English, and thus were influenced by this and the hard heartedness of the protestantism.

Orthodoxy is the stepping stone for people who used to be protestants. Eventually they will have to acknowledge the fullness of Rome.

Wonderful! Thank you!

I’m not sure why Jonathon isn’t pointing out Bernardo’s false proposition that unity is more fundamental than the multiplicity. Unity is held together by multiplicity. But excess unity breaks apart. Like how a government that spends money fixing stuff within its country only has that money because of the tax payers that actually generate it.

Great interview

56:23 What a great testimony, keep up the good work

Great guests and such an interesting conversation. They didn't even touch on the myths around the ark coming to Ireland and the Egyptian Scota princess. I understand there are also some strong connections between ancient Celtic language and Hindu and Sanskrit that suggests cross cultural pollination.

Another great show, thank you & your guests for enlightening us more & more on the old Irish Christian culture, which has so much to offer us and ways back in to Christ 🙏

One altar one church for community. Wow

St Finbarr of Cork had a church called diseart mor - the big desert

Townlands called dysart in west cork and westmeath and roscommon. An Díseart

I am Fr Lazarus, an Orthodox Priest, and 90% Irish. There are many who contend that it was the Orthodox who first brought Christianity to Ireland. This book is fabulous!

Did W.B Yeats have a book with that in it?

I really love both these men! Thank you for bringing them on and just letting them do their thing!

Terrific

Lovely

I love Bernardo Kastrup :-). He remids me of Baruch Spinoza so much. His logic, kindness, wisdom, loneliness (not physical)...

Love this. The imagery of Patrick exorcising the demons from the Irish heros is powerful. Reminds me of how Lewis uses the old gods in Narnia. Also, we can always be reading more Scripture!

To offer the message in a way they can receive. Today in the office, amongst friends, there was a talk - it drifted onto religion.One friend-colleague was excoriating about the tradition. I paused, and instead talked about how in the tradition light is created before the sun and that there is something deeply non materialist about that. This was offering the message in a way that could be received, it was told with warmth and honesty. It was not a shallow, conflict orientated approach. Good story M

This is the best interview I’ve seen of Dr. Ross. Definitely will recommend this interview to family and friends. Thank you so much

I am a PhD student at CIIS, studying medieval theology, focusing in on Francis of Assisi. Thank you Prof McGinn for all your work. I am reading your Mysticism volumes in full now. GOD's peace to you!

Only half way through as yet,,,but this is already so good, as I’m scrambling to write and take notes,,,God Bless this channel and its contents 🙏

This is so wonderful. A re -enchantment of much that has been lost. Thank you.

Love this so much!
