Raiders of the Unknown (Mystic-Skeptic Radio)
Society & Culture:Philosophy
In this week’s show we are honored to have world renowned scholar John Dominic Crossan as our guest again. His books include Jesus: A Revolutionary Biography and The Historical Jesus: The Life of a Mediterranean Jewish Peasant. In his 2000 book, A Long Way from Tipperary: What a Former Monk Discovered in His Search for the Truth, he discusses what it was like being raised in the traditional Irish Catholic Church. Dr. Crossan shares how he inherited a faith that was "accepted fully and internalized completely but undiscussed, uninvestigated, and uncriticized." During our show John Dominic Crossan explains that this type of mentality permeates the Roman Catholic Church as an institution which is led by some corrupt leaders who commit violence themselves or cover-up the crimes of their subordinates. The culture of secrecy, passivity of the members of this religious group and untouchable status of the clergy allow for this type of perversion to take place. During our discussion we take a look on how this situation keeps being mishandled and how there is no end in site for this type of abuse, reprieve for the perpetrators or justice for the victims.
