Ep. 0195: The Manichean Temptation

Here’s something we haven’t seen in a while — a ‘Silver Bullet DHP Episode’ (ie, one in which CJ records a mostly-extemporaneous discussion of a concept from his mobile podcasting studio, the Silver Bullet, while commuting.) Kicking it Old School DHP on this one!

Join CJ on a couple of morning commutes to work for a freewheeling discussion on the Manichean Temptation, some of its dangers and problems, some real-world manifestations of the phenomenon, and related issues like the problem with ‘extremists’ (as CJ defines them here), and the need to think not just about ends, but also about means, as well as some brief info on the ways that cults exploit the Manichean Temptation to the extreme.
