Episode 973 explores biblical healing miracles to reveal what they teach about choice, cruelty, and the difference between victims who deserve compassion and abusers who don't. Driftglass and Blue Gal revisit the story of the Gerasene man possessed by "Legion" to examine the long-term trauma inflicted when military forces terrorize civilian populations—then and now. The episode lays out why there can be no forgiveness without repentance, no redemption without atonement, and why "cheap grace" for Trump voters keeps enabling the cycle of abuse. Plus, a perfect diamond of stupid from an "independent" centrist who somehow thinks both sides are equally extreme while Trump launches unprovoked wars and builds concentration camps.
