This is a repost of my second conversation with Bernardo Kastrup on the More Christ channel and podcast.

260 - Cain And Abel

The Symbolic World ·

2022/10/24

Cain and Abel is one of the most known stories in the Bible. In this podcast episode we look at how it relates to left hand-right hand symbolism, but I also want to look at how there's a reflection of the story in a few pagan myths. Hopefully this will show how looking at other stories and myths from other cultures can give us hints about some of the Biblical structures.

This podcast is a response to a discussion between myself, Jordan Peterson and Mohammed Hijab on Jordan Peterson's channel. Many people have reached out to me since it's been out, so here I give some background context and an explanation of why I reacted the way I did. I also talk a little bit about the Trinity, which Hijab criticized, explaining why it is important in Christian theology.

I continue where I left of in my previous podcast about left hand and right hand symbolism, where now I discuss the idea of authority and power or direct and indirect influence. I use iconography and other images (like the royal scepter and orb) as examples to expound on this symbolism.

A clip surfaced of Sam Harris from a recent interview he did on Triggernometry where he expressed incredulity about the apparent absurdity of the idea of “heaven”, given that we have telescopes and satellites that have never observed it. In this podcast I respond to that sort of literalism and confusion about what heaven means from an ancient and symbolic perspective.
