How do we deal with difference? This is one of the most fundamental questions humans confront when organizing societies, from the moment on the playground when we realize that the other kids might hold different views from us on things like the rules of baseball, whether or not that was a strike, and whether or not someone has a big stupid face. In the next few episodes we will look at how medieval Europeans dealt with differences of faith, ethnicity, gender, and physical health.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.

In today's episode we interview a genuine lapsed Catholic to learn about the religious life of a normal person in the modern Catholic Church. This is methodologically problematic, but we are going for a flavor not like gospel truth. Andrew had fun editing this one, here's the songs playing in the background: "For You" - Zeeky Beats "Sunsets" Aso "Happiness" - CrazyJazz "Return" - Mingu5 "Your Favorite Place" - Joey Pecoraro "Out For A Walk" - Mingu5 "Waves" - Matt Quentin "Dreams" - Joakim Karud "ill never know _ green tea" - nymano I am hoping these are all under some kind of creative commons license and I'm not gonna get sued. Anyone who wants to sue me can reach me at pankaceplace@gmail.com  Feedback about the show can be directed, as usual, to wittenbergtowestphalia@gmail.com Seriously please stop emailing Andrew about the content that was a joke.  See acast.com/privacy for privacy and opt-out information.
