This episode is an abridged version of the rise and embrace of Christianity into western society, and government with returning guest Associate Professor of History at The King’s College in New York City Steele Brand

Starting near Christianity's inception, Steele walks us right into the middle ages, where he lays out what religion and government was like in the ancient world...

how Christianity got started as a movement..

the virtues and ways of life and thinking it added to our collective sense of morality...

how the followers of it evolved their own community into a religion and ultimately, into the government... or outside of it...

while this may seem abstract at first glance, i think you'll hear many quakes of the history and ideas through into today.
