About this episode
Douglas Wilson discusses the political implications of the Iran war and moral issues related to the concept of stolen land.
In this episode, Douglas Wilson reflects on the domestic political fallout of the Iran war and argues that what voters reject is not war itself so much as “forever war.” He then turns to the New Testament word miasmos to describe the “lust of uncleanness” as a deepening pattern of moral slavery, and closes with a review of Not Stolen by Jeff Fynn-Paul, a historical response to the claim that America is simply “stolen land.” For more from Doug, subscribe to Canon+: https://canonplus.com/
