Is There a God-Shaped Hole in Our Hearts? | Ep. 42
In this episode, Alycia examines the idea of a "God-shaped hole"—a deep emptiness in the human heart that we try to fill—and cites thinkers like Blaise Pascal and sociologist Jonathan Haidt. She explores why people stay with particular religions (fear, culture, habit, etc.) and asks whether satisfaction or truth should guide that search. Through sociological insight and personal reflection, the episode invites listeners to consider what truly fills us and encourages honest searching for what is true, good, and beautiful.
