The Origin of Ourselves

I've talked before on this podcast about my personal journey to treading a more Judeo-Christian theology path in my life -- inspired by my almost 25 years in Brazil working with Norberto Keppe's science of Analytical Trilogy. That was a surprise. I full expected a deep psychological dive into my own psyche and a continuous analysis of my actions and motivations and successes and failures.…

Hidden Repugnance Toward God - Ep 12 - Therapeutic Theology Series

The N.Y. Time, Dec. 21, 2025 edition, has an opinion piece entitled "Christianity Is a Dangerous Faith." That might stop you in your tracks even if you're not a practicing Christian. Dangerous faith? Really? During Christmas week? My initial thought on seeing the headline was, "Is that really necessary?" The article goes on to make the usual rather pedantic points about fanaticism and religious…

Stop Eliminating Christianity from History - Ep 11 - Therapeutic Theology Series

It's been impressive to see the various attempts to re-write history so it fits into a politically correct vision of reality. The New York Times 1619 Project comes to mind, the removal of statues and monuments to take out those associated with slavery or colonialism, the re-evaluation of historic personalities based on a modern view - these are all in full vigor. And criticizable -- although not…

Inverted Pleasure in Evil - Ep. 10 - Therapeutic Theology Series

Working with clients in psychoanalysis, one of the hardest tasks is helping them to see the negative things they do without realizing it. Self-destructive habits, procrastination of important activities, reckless or careless behaviors -- these all have causes from deep inside that we can't get to without help. Freud mistakenly linked these to what he called Thanatos -- a death drive -- proposing…

Demonic Mind Control - Ep 9 - Therapeutic Theology Series

Back in the 1950s, the CIA and Kremlin got it into their collective heads that figuring out how to brainwash and modify human behavior was a good idea. Totally illegally, of course. And damaging to any who were submitted to their personality control experiments. Out of this abusive and paranoid climate came such films as The Manchurian Candidate and Wormwood and even Jason Bourne. Some have linked…

Silencing the Accuser - Ep 8 - Therapeutic Theology Series

Dr. Keppe has said many times over the more than 2 decades I've been here in Brazil studying and working with him that no one is good alone. That means we act from influencers in our lives -- and I don't mean the social media kind. Friends and family, lovers and mentors, teachers and priests and padres -- all have had their positive effect on us. And then, since we're dealing with theology in this…

Pride and Demons - Ep 7 - Therapeutic Theology Series

Growing up in a modern developed, secular society means limited access to theological understanding. There is some spirituality mixed into the stew of science and legislation and jurisprudence, but it's of a modern kind -- meaning a blend of concepts and ideas pulled from Eastern philosophy, New Age imaginings and Quantum physics. And as such, there's lots of talk about influences from numbers and…

Choosing Evil - Ep 6 - Therapeutic Theology Series

Our modern world, often driven more by reason and logic than by faith and revelation, has few answers for the mysteries that more spiritual leanings point to as evidence of God. Where the scientific materialists advocate for blind, pitiless indifference to explain the development process of life and the universe, other scientists are seeing unmistakeable evidence of design. Design means a…

Certainty of God - Ep 5 - Therapeutic Theology Series

There's a lot of certainty in scientific circles about how science and religion can't go together. In fact, consensus that empirical science has made God unnecessary, and that religion, with its strange elements of faith and ritual, is irrational and harmful. If you've been listening to our series, you'll realize we don't walk down that road. While we certainly agree that superstition and…

Under the Influence of Evil - Ep 4 - Therapeutic Theology Series

We've been looking at the deep spiritual questions that rise in the human breast in our series. And we've been doing that through the lens of theology, which has been so dismissed, even despised, in our modern science. To our great detriment. As we'll hear in this episode, Dr. Keppe accepted his clients' questions and admissions in his practice right from the beginning, thus liberating them to…
