  •  Perhaps the most interesting part (none / 0)

    of the podcast comes when Stephen describes how there is a natural tendency in us all to be violent at times.  His example is that,

    "Sometimes we're playing a game of chess, and its fun when you knock the pawn out from the other guy instead of taking it off the board...it's more fun to knock that piece off the board than to take it off the board"

    He goes on to say that there is a thrill is being more violent sometimes, why is that? He talks about how there's nothing wrong with that, we should just think about it.

      It gets to the heart of Who Men Are.

      Whether Chess pieces or

      Another comparison.

      If you had to provide food for you family.

      What is more fullfilling as a Man.

      To poison a Bear, butcher the meat, feed family, provide bearskin rug for warmth

      Or

      Jump from a tree, Kill Bear with Knife, Feed family with the Spoils of Victory and Tell glorious stories around the fireplace (with Bearskin rug in middle of roo) about the Day I Knifed Ole Ben!

      Do not be ashamed at our Desire to be the Hero.  We were Made for this!
