One More Thing: Santa Claus Made me Do It
Manage episode 426104984 series 2682020
The conversation after this week's episode on demons and psychology has been so fascinating that I wanted to add one more thing. If on Tuesdays we wear pink, on Fridays we talk about language--so in this episode I'm exploring what it means to think about the transition from soul-talk to therapy-talk as an act of translation, by which, as in all such cases, some things are lost and some are gained. Like a camera lens shifting in and out of focus, we may need both sets of vocabulary--spiritual and scientific--for seeing the whole depth of field.
