   S2 E5: Searching for God in hedonism, Judaism, Islam, Then Christianity

   Daniel Erasmus has been searching for truth, beauty and goodness, his entire life. He’s tried almost everything under the sun, from partying hard, hooking up with women, to traveling. Not satisfied, and looking for something deeper, he turned to religion, from nominal protestant Christianity, he became a religious Jew, is now married to an Iranian Muslim, and has two young children. More recently he discovered Catholic Christianity and is digging into the likes of St Thomas Aquinas. A warning: this interview contains adult themes.

   My mum, Julie James, was a very troubled teenager. One night some of her friends forced the drug LSD into her mouth and she began to have hallucinations of hell. The next morning she wanted to end her life but a prayer said in desperation was her first step in a 50 year journey filled with sacrificial love, joy and peace. "

   S2 EP 4 The Skeptical Journalist & The Shroud of Turin

   Bill West stopped practising his Catholic Faith as he moved from school to full-time work. While backpacking through Asia, as a young man, he got terribly sick, and with the prospect of death, in desperation, he asked God for help. He got better and when he returned home to Australia, he re-connected with his Catholic Faith. Decades later, still working as a journalist, he decided to do a deep dive into what he believed was a medieval forgery, the Shroud of Turin.
