Pod Only Knows #025 – Eclipse Day Special! – featuring journalist Emily McFarlan Miller
It’s Eclipse Day, so we’re releasing a day early!
The solar eclipse that will be visible for much of the United States today had evoked all kinds of reactions, from overbooked hotels in wholly unprepared corners of the country to end times zealots declaring it a warning from God.
Eclipses have always been a source of wonder and religious interpretation, and if Marjorie Taylor Greene’s Twitter feed is any indication, there is no sign of that slowing down anytime soon.
But do eclipses also have a place among the more level-headed, mainline religious communities in America?
We asked journalist Emily McFarlan Miller, who wrote about religion and eclipses for the 2017 solar eclipse, to share her thoughts on the matter.
You can find Emily on most of the socials with the handle @emmillerwrites. Her piece on the last eclipse, from Religion News Services, can be found here: Signs and wonder: How people of different faiths view the total solar eclipse
