In this episode of _Creation's Paths_, Charlie and Brian dive into the concept of the "Hellenistic plot," examining how Greek and Roman philosophies have invisibly shaped Western thought and culture. They trace the influence of philosophers like Plato, Aristotle, and Zeno on modern ideas about power, control, and reasoning, arguing that many current societal struggles stem from these ancient frameworks. Through humor and critical reflection, they explore how rejecting Greco-Roman ideals opens the door to relational, participatory philosophies found in paganism, Hermetic Kabbalah, and non-Western traditions. The episode challenges listeners to recognize these inherited ideas and reimagine a more relational worldview.
