Nice, that’s also the Spectator podcast that turned me on to Dominion.
I really appreciate this recent coverage of religiously-themed topics. Obviously it’s a highly personal subject that everyone will come to their own conclusions on, but it is so important to understand the religious basis of so much of what we just blindly accept as normative.
Great series. It’s not as academic as Siedentop’s book seems to be, but Tom Holland’s Dominion has similar themes.
I actually listened to this podcast with Mr. Holland on his book and, as you say, he comes across as a bit breezier in his analysis than Seidentop: https://www.listennotes.com/podcasts/the-book-club/tom-holland-dominion-yKpEQCnGv32/
But still, he makes some interesting points.
