The Torturous Search for the Ideal Society: Utopias and Their Civilizational Fall-Out
About this episode
This episode explores various social and ethical visions for an ideal society and their implications.
This week’s episode looks at a variety of social and ethical visions that aim for the perfect society or state of being through, especially in the West. These visions, some of which have religious and even Christian roots, end up bracketing out a full Christian view of transcendence and replace it with one or another type of reality immanent in nature or the human or in human invention alone. The result has been anything but utopia!
