"Money is to Markets, as God / Value is to Consciousness"

This marathon of a podcast was too long, so we've split it up into be a multi-part series exploring John's incredible "Money Messiah" article from earlier this year.

If you've not yet listened to part 1 and 2, go back and listen to that first for fuller context.
Episode #70, and #71.

Part Three:

A discussion on Mythology & Theology.

Myths emerged as narratives as a means to teach us a meta.
Modes of being / operation.

Pagan, multi-variant gods as a map for multiple personalities for multiple contexts.
Mono-theistic god as the highest truth, the greatest good.

We ask a few thorny questions about Christianity and its expansion.
We talk about Nietzsche and "The Will to Power"

Who ask; "who defines good"?
And...Is there a thing such as a “greater good” ?

Is God:
The thing of highest value?
The thing of greatest truth?
The highest good?

The good is seeing / acting with a more truthful orientation.
Hence morality.

Hierarchies as an aggregate of values
The market as an aggregate of hierarchies

All of this, and a whole lot more.
Stay tuned for Part 4 and 5 of this mini-series!
