#6 Solomon the wise fool (with guest Matthew Graham) - a podcast by Has it crossed your mind?

The wiser they are, they harder they fool?

This week we have a special guest Matthew Graham in the studio with us to look at the reign of Solomon. We take a closer look at his wealth and splendour through his architecture. We contrast the magnificent temples with today's churches and ask the question, do we need such splendour in our places of worship today? We also look at the prideful nature of man and its timeless hold on us all. Capping it all off with the question, if you could be at any time in history, when would that be and why?Massive thanks to Matt for coming on the show and helping us break down the life and mind of such a complex man. Matt is a second year English and Psychology student at Portsmouth university, if you want to see more of his thoughts his blog is https://philosophy288483413.wordpress.com/?fbclid=IwAR3kfSJZWgQ4aQe1_rxtk7S8MQaRT1ad9m20-wp_jf_s4UoD95isYA0i9mcand feel free to get in contact with him via his email - grahammatthew21@yahoo.com
