Episode Details

In this wide-ranging session, R.J. Rushdoony takes listeners on a literary and historical tour, unpacking insights from obscure and classic works alike. From the scientific wit of Albert Michelson to the prophetic accuracy of Jules Verne, from the poverty of medieval parish priests to Montezuma’s fatal deference to Cortés, Rushdoony reveals forgotten truths that shaped civilization. He critiques the elitism of modern artists, exposes bureaucratic absurdities in the IRS, and reflects on how apocalyptic spirituality and political hypocrisy have deep roots in Western culture. With characteristic clarity and breadth, Rushdoony challenges listeners to rethink history, culture, and faith through a biblical lens.
