From religion to celebrity culture, from politics to conspiracy theories—worship is everywhere. But at what cost?
In this episode, we break down how blind faith overrides critical thinking, leading people to defend the indefensible, ignore inconvenient truths, and cling to beliefs that crumble under scrutiny. We’ll explore how different cultures have turned worship into both a source of unity and destruction, why every generation believes they’re living in the "end times," and how doomsday obsession fuels fear rather than wisdom.
Plus, we’ll tackle the arrogance of thinking we know the future, when history proves we rarely ever do!!!
