In this week's particularly eclectic episode, Natalie Garrett contemplates the power of real joy; Theodore Brun gives us a thoughtful review of Netflix's "Kaos" and Matthew Hall challenges us to think again about Assisted Dying.
Is John Lennon right, would all wars cease if religion were to vanish? And, finally, what is the theology of conflict? These are topical, real-time, questions – all of which are explored in this episode of GodPod, with the help of Dr Ziya Meral.
Ziya is a lecturer in International Studies and Deplomacy at SOAS (School of African and Oriental Studies), researcher and advisor specialising in global conflict and the role of religion.
