Pete Holmes' Obsession w/ Hell (BONUS!)
About this episode
Comedian Pete Holmes discusses his obsession with hell and its impact on his understanding of Christianity and spirituality.
BONUS! Comedian Pete Holmes reveals why he became obsessed with hell and how the idea of eternal punishment forced him to question the version of Christianity he had inherited. He traces his journey from viewing God as a terrifying judge to discovering Joseph Campbell, Ram Dass, non-duality, and a radically different understanding of consciousness. Pete also shares his unforgettable Harry Potter analogy for why searching for physical evidence of God may be completely missing the point.
