6. The Christian Ghetto: Vitalism and Christianity

After sparking some controversy with a recent tweet of mine, both on Twitter in general as well as some discussion within the Ghetto, we thought others might benefit from a chat about it.

How should a Christian think about the philosophical school know as “Vitalism.” Is is compatible with Christian teaching? Even if it cannot be imported in its entirety, are there lessons we can take from Vitalism? Are there things that Vitalism sees about us as Christians, critiques of which we have difficulty owning up? Brian C. Wilson of Montana Classical College — “Montana” — joins me for a discussion on this important topic. Since we in the Ghetto try to make these open discussions among the group, Riley S — “BT” — joined us shortly after we got going. I think you will be blessed with Montana’s command of both the Greek corpus as well as the writing of BAP and his book “The Bronze Age Mindset.” BT brings an impressive grasp of the writings of C.S. Lewis to the conversation. I am hoping you will find the discussion “vitalizing.”

Here are the tweets in question, for your reference:
