    This was one the interviews with the best questions I have been asked to answer. Thank, Dan.

      I’m someone who’s gone back to Church because of people like you Jonathan. Not just me but my wife and two young daughters as well, who will be baptized this fall. Thank you and God Bless.

      I left a comment. But in reply here I just want you to know Jonathan, please never stop. You are the one redeeming quality in faith in my opinion. And you and your brother have been called for a purpose obviously. So thank you. Please keep it up forever because you are the future and God has a plan. God bless you very very much.

    I found Jonathan and Matthew through Jordan Peterson. Maybe about a year ago. I can’t get enough.
    I love deep thinking I love symbolism, and I love all the wisdom they are imparting to us all.
    This was an excellent interview. I just saw it by accident, so thank you so much.
    This explains the whole thing very well to people who have no idea.
    I think that this is just what God Creator of the universe wants.
    Everybody just quietly accepts and believes, and doesn’t use their brain power or their spirituality or anything!
    So I think this is just awesome. I am a cradle Catholic. But believe me, I do believe in the basic doctrines, but I don’t like a lot of things regarding that faith.
    I agree with what you said. Had I had time in my life to really do what you did I probably would’ve joined you in that orthodoxy.
    The faith is mystical. The whole thing is mystical. And I agree, unfortunately growing up I learned rules. Sorry about that but thank God he brought me to the time I am at today and let me search and find. I just love the way you think Jonathan I just love it and that’s how I thought but I don’t understand at all and you’re helping me.
    But I do believe pretty much in everything that I hear directly from the Bible, and from people like Jonathan who are filled with wisdom.
    We were taught back in the day never question anything isn’t that interesting?
    What a dumb idea huh?
    Thank you again for what you’ve done because this is really excellent.
    God bless you.
    NEVER STOP!

      Hey, Joolz. There are hints, within your starting few lines, of many coming to see the scripture through them. And I like, the idea, of questioning. The things, that are messy. What is more Christian than, that. Look at the question, or fragments in the world, and Lord will provide answers, if we look long enough at them. Cause symbolically we are looking at chaos. And who better to look at this than the hell raider. Thanks for the comments, it generated a few light bulbs in my head.

    I have never seen Johnathan be pushed to his limits before in a interview this was magnificent! So many insights came out of this!

    This interview was fantastic. Great questions Dan. I was moved when Jonathan mentioned how many young men have The Symbolic World as a part of their journey back to the Church as I am one of those young men. Thank you Jonathan for all that you do. It means more than you will ever know. God Bless.

    Dan asks the best questions. I feel like I really got more insight into Jonathan as person. Great interview.

    Hearing that agape is about loving the other in a way that will make them keep existing was very important to me. A part of me has always felt this vague fear of the union with God happening in such a way that I will disappear. And I've noticed at times that this feeling is accompanied by a feeling that I would rather have it the other way round, which I've been trying to banish from my thoughts, but it's been lingering by every now and then. Understanding that a total union in agape involves both God and I loving each other in such a way that we would not have the other be lessened in any way is a huge comfort to this struggle that has been going on in this deeper recess in my soul. Thank you so much.

    Dopey TH-cam is at least smart enough to recommend all conversations with Jonathan Pageau to me! I understand very little but I feel what he says is important and profound

    everything he said about the Catholic Church is why I as a cradle roman catholic, chose to attend a Catholic Byzantine Church that celebrates the Melkite Rite this year when I felt called back to my glorious mother church.

      I wish the Catholic Church would remember all the children who were found last year in a mass grave. They were in a “Catholic Home” entrusted to nuns and priests who constantly abused them. We need to say an international mass every year to remember them rather than a one off blessing by our pope. The church still needs to sort the decades of abuse. I pray for our church to face up to these issues. It’s hard to imagine the broken lives of adults who have lived through that evil. ✝️

    You should invest in a new microphone. Consider a Shure MV7, a simple preamp, and interface. It'll elevate your good content to excellent.

    Great interview! To have chapters using the timestamps you need to put the first one at 00:00:00, otherwise the script won't understand it as such.

      Great thought! They are the profits of our time. They are the Aquinas of our time. They are the Augustines of our time and they are called by God for this time. Thank you Jesus for sending them.

    Heaven = communion(communication) leading to the totality of unification, as a uni part of a verse. The university being the phenomenal vastness of sound. Cancer being a body of cells that no longer communes with the rest of the body. Where does the Heart beat of Is come from?

    Listen you don't really understand the metaphors. I am the best ever at this and will cover any teachings. They are all metaphors but you do not really know what you are talking about. If you like competition or want to test what you think you know. Then let's debate, no one has ever beaten the chosen one and I am him.
