Whose Fault is it Anyway?: Parental Responsibility in a Contradictory Culture

Parenting comes with responsibilities. On that much, just about everyone can agree. But how should we hold parents responsible for the crimes of their children? And to what end? Such questions are being raised again in the wake of yet another school shouting in the US, this time in Georgia. Using this incident as a springboard, Andy, Steve, and Troy jump into a discussion about parenting, responsibility, birth rates, the State and other related cultural issues in this week’s edition of the AC Podcast.

On the other hand, there are films like “Sound of Freedom” that are going in a different direction. What are we to make of this?

Disagreement Doesn’t Equal Dehumanization

“My humanity is not up for debate.” This statement, often made by activists, comes in recognition of the serious nature of dehumanization. When we fail to see the humanity of others, we can do horrible things to one another. At the same time, this statement has many layers of ideas behind it. What is human? What is dehumanization? What is the relationship between our actions and our identity? Andy, Steve, and Wes sat down together to unpack these ideas in this week’s episode of the AC Podcast.
