A podcast about religion for basically anyone. Do Christians really think Jesus rode dinosaurs? What's the best time for my teenager to get really into Buddhism? I like science, can I still believe in God? What's with all the sexism in religion? Who decided what went into the Bible, and why? Yoga, stretching, spirituality, all of the above? Whether you grew up a secular humanist or spent every Sunday planted in a church pew coloring on the attendance cards, we've got you covered.

Wednesday Feb 03, 2021
Wednesday Feb 03, 2021
Comics, films, and television all have a lot of fun with superheroes. We figured we'd get some friends together and have some fun too. Shannon Mullen is back, along with our friends Katherine and Rusty, to talk about the ever present theme of redemptive violence in art, mostly art involving superheroes. Share in the controversy! Who's excited for the Snydercut? Who is Jon's Batman? Was Iron Man right in Civil War (several of our hosts think yes but our editorial staff may disagree)? Can't we all just get along and be friends? How does Christianity appear to have influenced our favorite characters? We answer all this and more on this episode of LOGOSISH!
