Getting Revenge and Forgiveness (May 24, 2012) | Michael McCullough describes science that helps us comprehend how revenge came to have a purpose in human life. At the same time, he stresses, science is also revealing that human beings are more instinctively equipped for forgiveness than we've perhaps given ourselves credit for. Knowing this suggests ways to calm the revenge instinct in ourselves and others and embolden the forgiveness intuition. | 24/5/12 | Gratis | Visa i iTunes |

The Freelance Monotheism of Karen Armstrong (November 5, 2009) | Karen Armstrong speaks about her progression from a disillusioned and damaged young nun into, in her words, a "freelance monotheist."

We revisit Krista's 2003 conversation with him, as they discuss the history and nature of creeds, and how a fixed creed can be reconciled with an honest, intellectual faith that changes and evolves. | 22/10/09 | Gratis | Visa i iTunes |
