On today's episode of the SSPX podcast, we'll start our last batch of episodes, those dealing

with the basic why not questions about what is reasonable to believe.

Today we'll be looking at the basic premise of paganism. Why paganism,

that is polytheism, animism, spiritualism, even if they have been at times very popular in history

and seem to be trendy now, simply don't make sense to the reasonable person. We'll see how,

based on logic, the ideas that are inherent in Hinduism, Buddhism, and native or aboriginal

spiritualities simply don't match up to reality. You can find notes to all of these episodes

at SSPXpodcast.com slash apologetics, as well as all of our previous episodes. There as well,

you can find a link to help support this project. This is free to listen to as well as all

the resources we're posting, but if you can help with a one- support this project. This is free to listen to as well as all of the resources we're posting,

but if you can help with a one-time or small monthly recurring donation,

you'll be making sure that we can continue this work of producing good Catholic content on a regular basis.

Now let's join Father Ruder for episode number 38 of the Apologetic Series here on the SSPX podcast.

Well, Father Ruder, it has been a little while since we've had you on, and we are rounding

the corner towards home on the end of this series.

Thank you for taking the time to join us again here as we are squarely in the middle of Advent,

almost to the end of Advent.

Thank you, Andrew. It's a pleasure to be back.

Pleasure is all mine, like usual. Last time we were talking with you, we were talking about

the basis for believing that the Bible is true, and you turned me on to a great book that I've

been slowly making my way through. I'm a slow reader. My wife always makes a massive amount of fun of me that I've been slowly making my way through.

I'm a slow reader.
