Episode 58: Flannery O'Connor on Christianity and Violence
In this atonal episode, hear almost nothing about Milledgeville and very little about Lupus, but hear a pretty good complete reading of a fragment of an uncompleted novel based on a line from Psalm 2 by Flannery O'Connor -- who wrote the fragment, which has been published as a story titled "Why the Heathen Rage" (not Psalm 2, of course). In a way that's hard for Protestants to understand, thinking about violence and interesting unexpected-but-inevitable endings in relation to Christianity all made sense to Flannery. Also a little discussion of violence & catharsis in "American Psych0." Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/GodwardOdysee: https://odysee.com/@Godward:5?r=FFgMAmWyyzJ2b8HrstejXYp7UaTdV9ep
