And that's the proper activity for us teleologically to become who we really are. podcast-host

And that's the kind of language you would use. podcast-host

But here it's that we need to recognize that who we are has its source outside of us. podcast-host

And that what we need to do is we need, in fact, he uses this language, we need to kill part of ourselves in order to become the God that we ought to be. podcast-host

So the distinction of... Or the sons of God. podcast-host

Well, the sons of God, but the son of God, of course, is God, right? podcast-host

And so there is a way in which the humility that is supposed to be present is a subjugation of ourselves, that recognition. podcast-host

Okay, so there's that pride. podcast-host

But the thing that's held out in a funny way is actually the doubling down on our godlike ambitions. podcast-host

OK, not in the sense of being God as being all controlling and all powerful, but as God like as possible. podcast-host

You know, if we're always around all kinds of food that is unhealthy for us to eat in large quantities, then, well, of course, we'll get so that we have a disordered relationship with food. podcast-host

That's basically what he's saying. podcast-host

And so they're saying that. podcast-host

This relationship, this distorted relationship we have with our sexuality is made much, much harder because of our culture. podcast-host

It's a cultural criticism. podcast-host

And that we don't recognize the ways in which we're just being manipulated by people who want to make money. podcast-host

And that that fact is causing us further problems. podcast-host
