| 0:10.0 | My name is Joshua, I am your host, and today I have an interesting essay that I'm going to share with you. I like to do this from time to time. |
| 0:17.0 | Share with you interesting things that I stumble across and today's essay is in that vein. |
| 0:22.0 | Now in the previous episode of this show I talked |
| 0:24.2 | about spiritual freedom and in the course of that show I was talking about the rings of freedom. |
| 0:28.9 | I talked about generally spiritual freedom in general, but I homed in on the Christian religion specifically |
