Judgment and the death penalty (chapter 74)
About this episode
In this episode, we look at chapter 74, which is a bit different in tone and content than other chapters around it. The central focus is the fear of death, and the central metaphor is the "Master Executioner" - whose job we should not try to take. We'll look at a literal interpretation first, followed by a more spiritualized/metaphorical one.
1. The death penalty - Lao Tzu and Shane Claiborne
2. Fear and judgment in religion
3. Do not judge others
