John Daniel Davidson, senior editor at The Federalist and author of "Pagan America: The Decline of Christianity and the Dark Age to Come," joins the High Noon podcast. John and Inez discuss some of the similarities and differences between pre-Christian paganism and what we observe as the last threads of America’s Christian founding start to dissolve. They also talk about the impossibility of maintaining a “neutral” public square with regard to religion, and what life-and the fight-is likely to look like for a dwindling number of religious people.

I just ordered your book and I am excited to read in more details the topics you discuss. As an aside, I am a retired conservative chem professor from a liberal university. I often compared our environment to the battles in the ancient Roman Colosseums. Students and untenured faculty were used as the combatants for the full tenured faculty. Those lucky enough not be be roped into the combatant roles sat in the stands with the full professors cheering for "our" side. Neutrality was frowned upon. Interestingly enough the battles were never about what was best for the students or the institution but rather about power and control.

I believe our faith should permeate all of our lives, our politics, our economics, and all of your relationships. The same counts for presidents.

Christmas was formed from Pagan traditions, Jesus was not born in December we have known that for quite a while. Paganism is a vital part of American and English heritage that needs to be celebrated alongside other religions. I think what David needs to ponder is if people no longer want to be religious then we cannot and should never force someone into a religious organization. The "fight" lies within yourself, no one else feels this way outside the radical Christian Right. The need for change is with the Church, not the outsiders, and if that never comes than Christianity will die out just like Greek and Roman religions. The blame game with this podcast is interesting. Why is it always about how bad other people are and not focusing on how to fix the issues inside the Church?

Greek and Roman religions were false. If you think Christianity will fail like them, then I’m assuming you are not Christian.

Matthew 7:3-5 3 “Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brother’s eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? 4 How can you say to your brother, ‘Let me take the speck out of your eye,’ when all the time there is a plank in your own eye? 5 You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your own eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brother’s eye. Keep in mind, these are not actual Christians.

Egad! At eleven minutes into this video, I turned it off. I have watched five other videos where John Danial Davidson was being interviewed, so I have some sense of what his message is in this book. Unfortunately this interviewer, Inez Stepman, is so insuffereably intrusive into what should be an interview, that it quickly became a colossal bore. It seems she is more intent upon giving the lecture rather than allowing him to speak. Plus she uses pompous, inflated language that few listeners will care to follow. She must be very intelligent, but she is not so clever as to know how to get a large impediment out of the way--herself.
