The Sacred | From Violent Atheism to the Taste for the Transcendent with John Vervaeke @thesacredpodcast | Uploaded November 2023 | Updated October 2024, 20 hours ago.
This is a clip from Elizabeth Oldfield's conversation with @johnvervaeke on The Sacred podcast.

John Vervaeke is professor of Psychology and Cognitive Science at the University of Toronto. He is also the host of the popular YouTube channel where he explores what he has coined the #meaningcrisis.

John spoke about his upbringing in a fundamentalist Christian home and what he has learned from that experience after time in therapy, relationships and the nature of reality, and the rehoming of spiritual practises outside of "legacy religions".
