Work and the Meaning of Life
The book argued that people are created to work, and that work provides unique meaning and purpose in life, contrary to the view that work causes societal pain, depression, and anxiety. It countered the idea that separating identity from one's career is correct, suggesting that a low view of work leads to disastrous cultural attitudes and policy proposals.

full time is screaming the exact opposite that we're created to work and that our work provides unique meaning and purpose in our lives

It is in work of every kind that we discover our meaning and purpose a significant and successful life is when rooted in Full-Time productivity and cultivation of god's created world

A book was mentioned in reference to inflation, where the author stated that inflation is the cancer of modern civilization and the leukemia of planning and hope.
America in Search of Itself about the the situation in 1980 he said inflation has no date of beginning inflation is the cancer of modern civilization the leukemia of planning and hope as with all cancers no one can say when it begins or how fast it may spread it's a disease of money when money goes order goes with it inflation comes when a government has made too many promises that cannot keep and papers over the shortfall with currency which ultimately becomes confetti and faith is lost
Cultural Amnesia, Expressive Individualism, and the Road to Sexual Revolution
The book was described as tremendously explanatory of the current societal state by tracing how the definition of happiness evolved from adapting to reality to self-definition, linking this shift to issues like transgenderism.

The book was described as tremendously explanatory of the current societal state by tracing how the definition of happiness evolved from adapting to reality to self-definition, linking this shift to issues like transgenderism.
I know you don't like this term, but I actually think one of the biggest issues and obviously this is, I think what underpins everything we're discussing though and it goes back to like reason is that people just don't think critically because we are actually producing people not to think. I mean how many people do you think that go to church if they've ever even actually read the Bible? Oh, very few.
I have constructed it though that you cannot point out that our culture is now almost universally trashed. But if you point that out, you're kind of cranky.
What's new I think right now, and I've been referring to this book cause I really think it's fabulous. There's a book by Carl Truman called The Rise and Try-On for the Modern Self and I think it's tremendously explanatory of just where we are as a society.
The point that Carl Schrueman makes, and he brings this forward to transgenderism is that religious people, traditionally conservative people they look at this and they go, this makes no sense. How can you say that I identify as something that I obviously am not?

I'm rereading one of Foucault's major books called The Nature of Things, The Order of Things and he's a grifter. Which didn't occur to me the first time I read it because I thought this is kind of interesting philosophy but he makes the point that natural science is a complete invention because all of biology is one thing and it's only us imposing this order on it and my first thought was that's interesting until a turkey tries to mate with a coyote and then you realize no there actually is an order of things.
