Episode 127: Mortality, Morality, and Religion with Ojo Taylor

Hi Pilgrim,

University Professor and former bassist for the Christian punk band “Undercover” Ojo Taylor returns to discuss a recent blog post he wrote as he turned 65.

Getting older ain’t easy but Ojo reflects on the benefits that ageing brings

including wisdom, perspective, and an understanding of what’s really important in life. And of course with his very public transition from Christian musician to atheism we go on frequent tangents discussing God, faith, the nature of belief, and morality without religion…among other things!

Peace & Buen Camino,

Steve & Tammy
