Reconciling Man’s Need for Sovereignty with his Abhorrence of Uncertainty - a podcast by Kathleen Ann Thompson

At the heart of man’s instinctual response to life is an insistent, nagging, impulse to bring all uncertainty under control. We need to keep a lid on the explosive threat that uncertainty poses to becoming fear-dominated.

Uncertainty keeps us from putting our hands on tools to wrestle down unwieldy circumstances. Uncertainty becomes a breeding womb for negative and frightening non-stop tapes and films occupying the real estate of our brain and soul day and night. Uncertainty eats at our peace and robs us of vision for the future. If man’s unsuccessful attempt to muscle control over uncertainty persist, he cries out for a sovereign. One who will take over and give him peace. But first, he will have to reconcile his resistance to relinquishing any part of his self-governance. 

Kathleen’s podcast probes this antagonistic dualism in man and inquires as to how man can arrive onto the path of peace, as well as accomplish successful self-governance.
