Summary
<p>The conversation after this week's episode on demons and psychology has been so fascinating that I wanted to add one more thing. If on Tuesdays we wear pink, on Fridays we talk about language--so in this episode I'm exploring what it means to think about the transition from soul-talk to therapy-talk as an act of <em>translation</em>, by which, as in all such cases, some things are lost and some are gained. Like a camera lens shifting in and out of focus, we may need both sets of vocabulary--spiritual and scientific--for seeing the whole depth of field.</p> <p>Check out our sponsor, the Ancient Language Institute (now offering Old English instruction!): <a href="https://ancientlanguage.com/youngheretics/">https://ancientlanguage.com/youngheretics/</a></p> <p>Pre-order my new book, <em>Light of the Mind, Light of the World</em>: <a href="https://a.co/d/2QccOfM">https://a.co/d/2QccOfM</a></p> <p>Subscribe to my new joint Substack with Andrew Klavan (no relation): <a href="https://thenewjerusalem.substack.com">https://thenewjerusalem.substack.com</a></p> <p>Umberto Eco, <em>Mouse or Rat</em>: <a href="https://a.co/d/000FYjjB">https://a.co/d/000FYjjB</a></p>
