67 — Yitro: What's Up with the Lips?
Show Notes

This week, G-d wears a cute waterfall dress, Isaiah has hot lips, and we all pretend to be angels. Plus, bad survey design and gender-affirming conversion rituals that still involve small amounts of pain on sensitive areas.

Transcript here (still in progress - only finalized through page 9).

Francis Fukuyama wrote a famous book called The End of History and the Last Man, in which he argued that the progression of history was basically over, because with liberal democracy, we've reached our final form. He later walked that position back, however. Also, he's still alive. Incidentally (talking about dystopian futures), Billy Joel's "Miami 2017" is still a pretty good song!

This week's reading was Isaiah 6:1–7:6 and 9:5-6. Next week's reading is Kings II 12:1-17.
