Summary
Will money buy happiness? Can you serve God and still be rich? Are we headed towards a totalitarian state? Former priest Calvin Robinson pulls no punches in his controversial takes on religion, money, and politics. Rob and Calvin have a long in-depth discussion covering Christianity, cancel culture, social media, gender, and more. Calvin provides thought-provoking perspectives from his experience in the church and his unapologetically traditional views. Whether you agree or disagree, this crossover episode will challenge your assumptions and expand your mind.
Calvin Reveals:
- Why The Church of England refused to ordain him
- Why believes the Church has become "woke" and Marxist, leading people away from true Christianity.
- That men and women have different roles in the family and society.
- His thoughts on TikTok and other social media
- Why suffering and sacrifice are necessary to achieve holiness and live a moral life.
Also Featured:
- Why money is not bad or good
- The problem with blind faith
- The breakdown of The Church and similar institutions
BEST MOMENTS
"The Church of England is woke, yeah. Not the Church. The Church of England."
"People are dying in Africa. Yes. I mean, that's another cliched thing to say, but people are literally dying, but people have it much worse."
"I love money, and I don't think I'm the root of all evil."
"Why can't we talk about this without getting berated? Because the feminists..."
"The whole liberal movement has said, no, men and women are the same. We're equal. We're not the same. We're not equal."
