In this episode we discuss the end of the world, but without getting too apocalyptic about it. This contemplation of end times, promoted by the Catholic liturgy of the past couple weeks, is as good a time as any to discuss authentic martyrdom and to debunk "The Rapture" and advocate a decrease in people's belief in Increase Mather's polemics.
