Dr John G Stackhouse: How to Think in Public

How to Think in Public.

 

Recently, I spoke with Professor Stackhouse about Epistemology, Critical Theory, and Christian Ethics. We explored the nature of thinking and how, through history, people have shifted their acquisition of knowledge away from communities towards a high individualized frame of the self. In this conversation, Professor Stackhouse critiques public discourse as we explore not only what we think, but also how we think.
