Intro to Islam video shoot success!
🕑 Added 2017-07-20 17:39:19 +0000 UTC Hi everyone. Last week I filmed two videos, Intro to Sikhism and Intro to Islam at a professional studio at the Religious Freedom Center in downtown Washington D.C. The picture is me joking around with Dr. Hussein Rashid while filming the Islam video.I think both videos turned out great! I wanted to make sure to collaborate with actual scholars of each of these traditions. Sure, I know a lot about religion, but I couldn't match these two scholars when it comes to fine-grained knowledge and nuance about Sikhism and Islam. Not only did they help develop the script, but they even co-hosted the episodes!
Because of your support on Patreon, I was able to pay for their travel down from NYC to D.C. to collaborate on these videos. Thank you so much. This would have been impossible without you. I'll be editing these two vids in the coming weeks with the aim of publishing them in late August. Stay tuned!
Best,
Andrew

Thanks! I'll reach out when I start researching it!

This is an excellent idea. And actually, I've been thinking about this a lot recently. It'll be tough to write, but it is an important topic.

Just an idea, but a video on methodological agnosticism might clarify how you keep your own (lack of) religion out of your research. This in turn might encourage people who want to study religion and care so deeply about their own (lack of) religion, that they feel they cannot be impartial.
