Anthony, Nick, and E. Antony are joined by Ryan Landry and welcome special guest The Rebbe to talk about the second half of the Puritan-Judaism theory of Progressivism. In part 1, they cover Jewish perspectives on Christ, the ethnic divisions within modern Jewry, how nationalism saved Israel, and much more.
This episode is brought to you in part by generous donations from our listeners Anonymous in VA, The Bermudan Reactionary, Gladio, Edmund Burkenstock, and a special gift from our guest, The Rebbe. If you would like to sponsor an episode of Ascending the Tower, e-mail survivingbabel AT gmail.
