171. Without God
Chris Palmer, philosopher and author and dean at Barnett College, explores a parable of a town living after the cultural death of God. He describes Novemberton’s search for meaning, contrasts passive and active nihilism, and examines infobesity, Dostoevsky’s and Camus’s responses to suffering. He ends with the church’s quiet presence, a personal chapel moment, and a humbled form of hope.
