Can We Pick and Choose Our Beliefs? | Muehlhoff & Barrett
About this episode
In today’s episode, two professors with different approaches to faith discuss the question: Can I be spiritual but not religious?
You’ll hear from Tim Muehlhoff, a professor of communications at Biola University, and Elizabeth Barrett, a lecturer in psychology at California Polytechnic State University (Cal Poly). They discuss their spiritual and religious worldviews, how they define spirituality, and whether picking and choosing what we believe is liberating or harmful. Their conversation is moderated by Stephen Lloyd-Moffet, a professor of religious studies at Cal Poly.
