HostsCorey J. Mahlercoreyjmahler.com@CoreyJMahlerWoeaka Eschatologuy@treblewoeLove and duty are matters of concentric circles — to the closer is the greater duty and the greater love owed. In the previous episode in this series, we covered the facets of self-sacrifice love (agape) and charity (caritas); in this episode, we cover familial and brotherly or fraternal love, emotional (amor) and intellectual (dilectio) love, and piety (the historical, proper sense) and paternal love — three pairs, as it were. We call these facets, because it is not that love can be dissected and broken down into constituent parts; rather, it is that love is expressed in different ways between different people at different times. The love a husband has for his wife is not the same as the love a man has for his nation.If we are commanded to love, then we must certainly understand what it means to love. We must know whom (and what) we must love and what is the nature and scope of that love. The world would deceive us by calling that which is not — and often even that which cannot be — love ‘love’. As Christians, we are commanded to be wise, and love — to whom it is owed and how it must or must not be expressed — is assuredly a matter of wisdom.Subscribe to the podcast here.Show NotesDeus Ex Machina – Apple and the Ghost of Steve Jobs (Myth20c – Ep270)See AlsoFurther ReadingParental Warnings“Homosexual fornication” and “sodomy” are used as descriptors for an example around the TranscriptThe transcript for this episode can be found hereOther transcripts can be found hereCurrent Sponsor(s)Coming soon?Support the PodcastRecurring DonationOne-Time DonationMahler’s Amazon.com Wish ListWoe’s Amazon.com Wish ListThe Stone Choir 2024 Challenge CoinUpdate: Shipping has begun.Comments?Join the discussion on Telegram, visit the feedback form or comment below.function waitForElement(selector, callback) { const interval = setInterval(function() { const element = document.querySelector(selector); if (element) { clearInterval(interval); callback(element); } }, 100); // check every 100 milliseconds}function updateTranscriptLink(audioSrc) { const episodeNumber = extractNumber(audioSrc); if (episodeNumber) { const transcriptLink = document.querySelector('a.transcript-link'); if (transcriptLink) { transcriptLink.setAttribute('href', `/transcripts/transcript-episode-${episodeNumber}/`); } else { console.error('Transcript link not found.'); } } else { console.error('Episode number could not be extracted.
