My guest this week writes at https://inklesspen.blog and is a priest in the Orthodox Church. He is Father Zechariah Lynch. Fr. Zechariah and I get into the issue of Christians resisting evil... or not. If we call out something as wrong, evil, or dangerous, some are quick to tell us that we are being judgmental and not very Christian. Are we to be pacifists and let people do as they will? What about during the pandemic? Are we wrong to call out those who wanted experimental medicine forced on us? What about those who wished us to be locked in our homes?
We also get into the recent discussion online as to whether or not it's "priestly" to work out and post about it. Does becoming fit and strong make one subject to the sin of vanity?

The Counterflow Podcast is a weekly show featuring discussions and interviews with people who are outside of and critical toward mainstream liberal and conservative politics. Counterflow challenges the conventional right/left binary and is concerned with the more important distinction of free vs unfree. The show will feature thinkers from all backgrounds, who do not fit into the narrow framework of fashionable opinion. The show will address cultural and lifestyle issues as well as philosophy and politics. Host Buck Johnson (formerly of The Death To Tyrants Podcast) is a musician and firefighter and has always had an interest and drive to go one way while everyone else runs the other direction.
