Instead of treating Galatians like a first draft of Romans, as is also typically done, Reading Galatians highlights the uniq...

Black Mirror, Netflix’s dystopian anthology, probes what it means to be human in a technological world. While the show raises interesting, if not disturbing, questions, it refrains from giving answers, putting the onus on viewers to continue the conversation.
