Trump Vs. Pope Leo, the Real Threat of Ai & Fraying Social Fabric | Bishop Robert Barron

Dave Rubin of “The Rubin Report” talks to Bishop Robert Barron about the lost art of civil debate and why figures like William F. Buckley, Phil Donahue, and Johnny Carson helped unify Americans across political divides; how tribalism, wokeism, and partisan media are destroying healthy public discourse; the growing public clashes between President Trump and Pope Leo XIV over immigration, morality, and public policy; how Catholic leaders in politics should engage in direct dialogue with the Vatican instead of social media battles; how the collapse of America' shared faith may be weakening social cohesion, moral stability, and civil discourse; the rise of conspiracy thinking, tribalism, and online mobs as symptoms of a deeper spiritual crisis; why AI and artificial intelligence could weaken human thinking, meaning, and religious life if people outsource their minds to technology; his warning that wokeism and critical theory are spiritually divisive movements rooted in power politics rather than truth or justice; and why churches should resist adopting woke ideology even if it costs them popularity or numbers, and much more.
