In this fifth episode of Season Two of More Than Politics, host Julie Varner Walsh turns to the problems we face when it comes to today’s politics. She describes how she sees these problems as coming from our human tendency to idolize, to become unhealthily attached to things.
And in particular, in this episode Julie discusses our tendency to idolize people – both groups and individuals. Julie believes that this idol has lead us into a culture war, and that we vastly underestimate the role this culture war has come to play in our lives.
