Ian Gilliam Interview | Episode 1
Join me, your host Mark, as I journey through the realm of philosophy, religion, and metaphysics with Ian Gilliam, a passionate Sound Designer, Media Editor, and devoted Muslim. In our candid discussion, Ian gives an insightful account of his early encounters with religious philosophy, his journey from Christianity to Islam, and how this transition shaped his understanding of reality. He shares his perspective on a variety of profound topics, from the attributes of God to determinism versus free will.
In our second segment, we continue to navigate through complex philosophical concepts. We contemplate the intricacies of free will, its limitations and its contrast with determinism. The discussion gets more intriguing as we draw comparisons between humans and animals in terms of free will and morality. Ian helps shed light on some fascinating concepts within the Islamic faith, including the roles of angels and jinn, and the implications of free will and morality.
As we wrap up our enlightening discussion, we venture into the world of the supernatural, examining the interactions with jinn and their potential influence on our reality. Our conversation takes an exciting turn as we explore Ian’s personal ‘glitch in the matrix’ experience and contemplate the possibility of possession and paranormal behaviors. Finally, we chat about Ian’s podcast project, ‘Tribes of Adam’, and its relevance to his interest in philosophy and religion. This is an episode packed with riveting discussions and thought-provoking insights you won’t want to miss.
