Reknowned scholar and philosopher of religion, David Bentley Hart, joined us to be interviewed about his book "All Things Are Full of Gods".

We discuss with David the nature of consciousness, life, language and the Aristotelian causes at play in events as well as the nefarious effects of materialism on the human psyche and the natural world.
