Overview:
In this episode Dan and I dip our toes into “what it means to be human?” and “what is it to believe?” and “what is religion?”
Without giving anything away, we discover that man is irrepressibly religious because man is a happiness seeking creature and as St Augustine says, perfect happiness can only be found in God.
