Why is propaganda and empty rhetoric so appealing to some people? In this midweek episode, Frank explains how the first of ‘The Screwtape Letters‘ by C.S. Lewis perfectly illustrates the way demons manipulate human beings, now and throughout history. He’ll also explore the recent power struggles between the Trump Administration and the lower district court judge who blocked Trump’s transgender military ban. Frank will answer questions like:
Why is using “jargon” instead of evidence-based arguments not good thinking?
What specific tactics does C.S. Lewis say demons use to tempt humans and where do we see evidence of this happening in our culture today?
Do all people have the right or privilege to serve in the military?
Was Trump’s decision to say transgender people are not qualified to serve in the military unconstitutional?
Why is it so difficult to impeach judges, and do we really have only three branches of government?
What do a lot of people get wrong about Islam?
Frank also tackles some listener questions about who will be resurrected (is it only Christians?) and whether an old-earth contradicts biblical genealogies. Plus, he’ll reveal details about his numerous speaking events coming up this spring—so listen closely to see if he’s coming to a city near you!
