Recovering Enchantment in a Secular Age: Interview with Richard Beck
Manage episode 418949739 series 2840087
Psychologist and author Richard Beck joins us to discuss his recent book Hunting Magic Eels: Recovering an Enchanted Faith in a Skeptical Age. Richard is an engaging critic of some forms of contemporary "disenchanted" spirituality. He's also a fun dialogue partner and a good sport, who was willing to roll with Kyle's annoying philosophy questions. Some stuff we discuss in this conversation:
- Is our age really disenchanted?
- Does enchantment need to be transcendent?
- What's wrong with consumerist spirituality?
- What about the "spiritual but not religious" crowd?
- Are Catholics more enchanted than Protestants?
- What do dancing gorillas and paying attention have to do with God?
- What about mystical experiences?
- Is Kyle a narcissist and/or a sociopath?
And more!
The whiskey we taste in this episode is 4 Roses single barrel 18 year old bourbon.
