The Unfounded Podcast is a free flowing stream of ideas centered on asking the questions we often avoid. The focus is to bring the religious and secular world views into alignment through analyzing the philosophies developed by those who have come before us. The show is highly spiritual in nature, and leverages the practicality often hidden within religious teachings to provide actionable steps through which individual growth and expression can manifest. The classical liberal idea of self expression is a main focus, demanding the listener to practice radical honesty within their spheres of influence in order to discover their individual purpose and the meaning that stems from it.

Welcome back for this emotional episode. It's been a tough couple of weeks in the world. After a long break spent working on other projects it seems fitting to return to the podcast in reflection. This episode is meant as a clarification, reflection and apology to the listeners for the ways in which I have been deceived in previous episodes and presented that confusion as truth. It has been a long journey to find the truth but at long last we have arrived. Enjoy and lot's of love!
”Take Me to Church” | Genesis 17-18 | Volume 10 | The Unfounded Podcast
Épisode 119
lundi 20 janvier 2025 • Durée 01:02:33
In this episode of The Unfounded Podcast’s recurring series Take Me to Church, host Christopher Turner brings a fresh approach to engaging with religious texts. Covering Genesis chapters 17 and 18, he explores the transformation of Abram and Sarai into Abraham and Sarah, the covenant of circumcision as a physical symbol of God's promises, and Abraham’s bold intercession for Sodom and Gomorrah.
Beyond biblical analysis, Turner intertwines personal reflections on motivation and physical health, using them as metaphors for resilience and faith in the creative process. He also examines contemporary issues like the potential TikTok ban, framing it as a test for creators to evaluate authenticity and the influence of digital platforms.
With an emphasis on critical thinking and free exploration of spirituality, Take Me to Church breaks away from traditional structures, welcoming all perspectives without restrictive dogma. By fostering discussion across religious traditions, Turner aims to create a space where diverse beliefs can be engaged with openly. Join him every Sunday for this unique journey in faith and philosophy.

Épisode 110
dimanche 17 novembre 2024 • Durée 01:23:37
Welcome to the first in a series of Sunday episodes titled "Take Me to Church", where spirituality is not confined to walls or traditions but thrives in open exploration. This week, we delve into the Genesis 1 and the creation story, not as a singular doctrine but as one of many ancient narratives that may describe the same fundamental truth.
Through deep discussions on the Dead Sea Scrolls, The Book of Enoch, and ancient Egyptian beliefs about Thoth, we examine how different traditions intersect, rather than compete, in their search for meaning. The episode also explores the symbolism of the firmament—could it be figurative, subtly aligning with a modern understanding of the cosmos? We reflect on the Sabbath not just as a religious command but as a universal call to rest and renewal.
More than anything, this episode is an invitation—to question, to rethink, and to uncover the hidden connections that shape our understanding of ourselves and the world. Join me as we journey through ancient texts with curiosity and critical thought, seeking wisdom beyond boundaries.

Routine is often construed with restriction. Instead, a routine can provide more freedom when developed with intent. During these crazy times it is important to look at your routines and to adjust accordingly. It is an opportunity to re shape the way you interact with the world, hopefully with the intent of making each day worth getting out of bed for!

Why do we fear being alone? There is something terrifying built into the idea. In many ancient cultures the figure of the shaman was regarded as a leader, not only in the community setting but also in the spiritual realm. The path to becoming a shaman often involved isolation. The isolation seemingly serving as the means by which the individual gleaned deeper wisdom. Accepting this idea I ask you, are you afraid of being alone? If the answer is yes then the next question should be why.

Things are changing and changing quickly. Many are focused on the negative ramifications of the virus but it is equally as important to identify the positive effects of a change on this scale. The slowing of our consumer economy may serve as a wake up call for many, shaking them from the rinse and repeat grind that dominates modern life. What have you been doing with your extra free time? I believe the answer to that question may be more important than we currently realize.

Could the ego be an evolutionary outgrowth of the survival instinct? A hidden remnant of a past human being, whose primary function was that of survival. Could the next step in human evolution be to rid ourselves of the ego and the survival instinct that fuels it?

We often run our default programming, allowing ourselves to believe that we can manipulate the world into a more perfect place. It is precisely our desire to usher in paradise which has served to justify the worst atrocities in modern history. There is an audacity built in to the modern human psyche that allows for a mass psychosis to be perpetuated, that being that idea that we can solve the problem of suffering inherent within life itself. Our attempts to "help" often serve as a catalyst for chaos and confusion, making the destruction we aim to eliminate
