I really appreciate the spaces of silence in this interview. It takes a lot of courage to let silence exist in this form of content. It gives the listeners time to contemplate the discussion just as much as the participants.

From a Catholic man, fallen from the church and certain that God had deserted me when I held my daughter as she took her last breath, this gives me hope.

ā€œReligion is interested in you whether or not you give a shit. It knows who you are and finds its way into every aspect of your life. And if youā€™re going to be an honest atheist, you have to admit that.ā€

Having been an atheist for many years and then a born again Christian, this is a very powerful statement for me to hear. I have no interest in being preachy or trying to covert anyone. But having been on both sides, it definitely resonates with me.

Eric is one of my favorite human beings to listen to. I was raised Christian and accepted Christ. I grew up and went to college. I became an Electrical Engineer. I had my doubts though I never completely lost my faith. I had a professor tell me that if you want to be religious you have to leave that out of science. I thought he was making fun of religious people until he told us he was Christian and went to church every Sunday. I understand what he means now and I think he was saying the flip side of what Eric was saying. Iā€™m older and hopefully wiser now and Iā€™ve never been stronger in my faith. I think even an atheist living out the teachings of Christ could find peace and happiness even if they didnā€™t truly believe. I would bet they would find faith sooner than later but thatā€™s just my opinion.

I use to say I had no faith, and then I realised that I had faith in lots of things I had no real reason to believe in. Then, I had an experience that taught me that faith is a journey and it starts with a step and it lead to humbleness, reverence and respect for the devine.

I began praying every morning about 2 years ago. I'm noticeably better for it.

I've been Christian my whole life, but making prayer a habit is a whole other level. It's a beautiful thing.

I'm agnostic, but that conversation was mesmerizing. Very good stuff here.

This is really refreshing. I am a Christian but was agnostic for most of my life. People don't realize the ramifications of having an entire society void of faith

I really love these conversations between Chris and Eric. Notice if you feel uncomfortable when there's a long silence in the conversation. They are truly listening to one another deeply, much is communicated in those silences. Well done, Chris, and congratulations on the growth of your channel. You deserve it.

10:25 It's the Catholic Latin Mass, and it's growing in popularity with young people all over the world. (It's not a separate denomination: it's Catholicism using a form of the Sunday Mass that was universal until the early '60s.)

I love watching these two, you can tell how much respect Chris has for Eric, like his favorite uncle.

I am compelled to listen to these interviews with Eric, simply because what he says so eloquently helps me to further process my own thinking and perceptions of many issues I confront in this life. This elaboration on religion was helpful to me, (as my own views are always in development and tend to be confusing to other people who either rigidly adhere to their doctrine or totally reject any mention of religion altogether so I don't tend to express my own views publicly) but they are very close to what Eric was discussing here.

Neo-modern meditation is not prayer. Itā€™s actually amazing just how powerful prayer is.
