When US COVID Deaths Were Below 70,000: How Are You A Year Later? Replay from May 7, 2020

Season 3, Episode 327,   Mar 04, 2021, 04:06 PM

We’ve certainly blown past 100,000 Covid deaths in the United States. That was a potential threshold scenario we considered with sadness in this replay from May 7, 2020, when Covid deaths had just gone over the 65,000 mark.

What In God’s Name is about to embark on a mini-series of shows reflecting on the last year of pandemic time. In preparation, we go back to the beginning months.

What have we seen this year, that has been revealed by pandemic time?

Our show pushes back against the unexamined, often unconscious ways that we frame public questions using political or economic modes of thinking. We aim to be part of a growing movement of people who are critical of the narrowness of political and economic categories, and who want to revive a vision of human flourishing that is grounded in the wisdoms of theological and moral philosophical tradition. We see these habits and ways of thinking as being pre-political, and foundational to a healthy and civil shared life in families, communities, economies, and polities.

In short, we want to foster conversations, develop habits, and create communities that are grounded in curiosity, going deep, and shining light.
