Bruce Pardy of Rights Probe (liberty) and Liberty Dispatch co-host Andrew DeBartolo (virtue) discuss at length the alignment of two very different worldviews in the fight against pervasive and destructive ideologies (scientism, the managerial state, wokeism, etc.) and where they depart. As Andrew notes: “Those who reject God’s ultimate authority will not be able to work with those who embrace God’s ultimate authority when it comes time to rebuild culture and re-establish laws.” These two cobelligerents, beyond the immediate struggle, are committed to very different political goals and the means to achieve them in terms of an “ultimate” authority, laws of the state, the way in which the state should govern, and much more. Sharing and analyzing these viewpoints in heated but mindful conversation makes for compelling listening on the meaning of freedom, how that meaning is defined, and the outcomes for freedom according to these divergent worldviews through examples ranging from property rights to morality.
