G'day there. How are you going, Matt Fred here?

Good morning.

Today, here's what we're going to do.

We're going to take a look at what Thomas Aquinas has to say about the eight daughters of lust.

He gets this from St Gregory, the greats work on morals.

Eight daughters being the eight effects of lust.

We'll go through those.

Then I want to take some questions from our patrons, including one about how to respond to somebody

who says the only way of arriving at truth is by science.

And that this, I guess in this question, this person was saying that this person who was talking

to her, this was their justification for why they were an atheist.

We're going to look at a canto from Dante's pergatorio, number 19.

This has to do with lust. It's really cool.

And then just for fun at the end, I want to share with you something that James Hetfield said,

the lead singer of Metallica. Now, you probably know that I like Metallica.

You don't have to like Metallica. But in this episode towards the end, I'm going to try to convince

you that they're at least very talented. I'm going to share a little clip of a song of theirs

for you and then share an interview that was done with James Hetfield and share something. He's

the lead singer. I think I've mentioned that. And share with you something that he said, because,

man, it was, it was really profound. It actually has to do with what we're talking about today.

So there you go. Last week we did an episode with Gabe Dimm. Hopefully you saw that.

Gabe has been on shows on Netflix, on MTV. His, his story was featured in a Time Magazine article.
