Sermons and teaching from Agathos Ministries- A church for 1 in 10. 9 in 10 would be better served by a more conventional church.
Agathos is anything but conventional.

Agathos (a-GAH-thos)
âBe Good. Do Goodâ
âAgathosâ is a Greek word. More precisely it means:
Something that is Good in its nature and beneficial in its Effect.

*Agathos Ministries Sermons are as much Seminar as Sermon. This means that the Sermons contain useful, practical information you can use in your day to day life. This principle flows from Ephesians 4:12, âFor the equipping of the saints for the work of ministry.â For us, we teach practical insights and skills that will help people help others.
A FEW CONTROVERSIAL BELIEFS
1. The Deal Principle: Godâs Real Rule on Divorce and Remarriage is that Divorce For Grounds is permitted. The couple decides The Deal, and the couple decides The Deal Breakers. A legally Divorced person may Remarry. The commitment is to the relationship, not just the status.
2. Women are to be honored and respected, unleashed in their potential for leadership, accomplishment, and being all that God made them able to be. Women are not restricted in their leadership positions in the Church. If men have a problem with over-attraction to feminine beauty, it is the job of the men to mature, NOT the job of women to cover up.
3. Men are to be selfless leaders, and no man should expect even his wife to submit to him if he is not leading selflessly. Men appreciate feminine beauty, and male sexuality is a gift from God that needs to be matured and trained, not denied nor suppressed.
4. Genesis 1:1 Principle and the Law of Harmony: God did a magnificent job designing and engineering the Universe and building laws into it, including mathematics and physics. If we violate those laws, God, as a general rule, will decline to violate the laws of Cause and Effect to do a miracle. He does not say yes to âDaddy do my homework for meâ prayers.
5. Agathos believes in categories of Sin, the worst of which is âSins of Malice.â Sins of Malice are those sins that cause harm to others. They include violence, gossip, judgmentalism, and condemnation. This is made worse when facts are distorted to do so. Sins of Selfishness are those sins that only hurt the one doing it. Sins of Connection are those sins that are motivated by a desire to connect. Agathos believes that the worst sins are those that hurt others, and we concern ourselves with those the most.

Agathos Ministries Podcast
This audio podcast presents soundtracks of the pioneering weekly television series, Exploring the Illusion of Free Will. Through dozens of 28-minute episodes, producer and host George Ortega explains why our commonly held notion that we humans have a free will is, upon inspection, quite illusory. The series also describes how we can create a world of far less blame, guilt, arrogance and envy by overcoming this ubiquitous illusion.

Philosophers have refuted the idea of free will for centuries. In his 1943 book, Physics and Philosophy, English physicist, astronomer and mathematician, Sir James Jeans, writes that “Practically all modern philosophers of the first rank -- Descartes, Spinoza, Leibniz, Locke, Hume, Kant, Hegel, Mill, Alexander, as well as many others -- have been determinists in the sense of admitting the cogency of the arguments for determinism, but many have at the same time been indeterminists in the sense of hoping to find a loophole of escape from these arguments. Often they conceded that our apparent freedom is an illusion, so that the only loophole they could hope to find would be an explanation as to how the illusion could originate.”

Back then, however, they lacked the kind of abundant, rigorous empirical evidence needed to make the case against free will unequivocal. How big a deal is it that we now have such evidence? When Susan Blackmore asked him to comment on the prospect of free will being proved an illusion, fellow philosopher John Searle replied, “That would be a bigger revolution in our thinking than Einstein, or Copernicus, or Newton, or Galileo, or Darwin. It would alter our whole conception of our relation with the universe.”

Well, the revolution is here, and Ortega is leading the way. Exploring the Illusion of Free Will covers all of the major points related to why our human will is not free. In a refreshingly non-academic style, he describes how the physical law of cause and effect makes free will quite impossible. And for those among us who remain convinced that some natural events occur randomly, or without cause, Ortega also explains why such randomness similarly opens no door for a free will.

The television series from which these audio podcasts are made premiered in White Plains, New York and other select Westchester County communities January 6, 2011. Since then, two popular science magazines have run first-time-ever cover stories on the mounting scientific evidence that none of what we humans think, feel, say or do is really up to us. Great Britain’s weekly, New Scientist, had as its April 16-22, 2011 cover story, “Free Will: the Illusion We Can’t Live Without,” and the prestigious U.S. based monthly, Scientific American Mind, followed up with a May/June 2012 cover story titled, “Who’s in Control? How Physics and Biology Dictate Your ‘Free’ Will.”

Ortega lacks neither recognition of the importance of what his series is doing nor a self-parodying sense of humor about his assuming credit for what he knows full well was in no real sense up to him. In one episode, he combines a keen sense of history with a comically boastful manner as he unabashedly proclaims his popularizing our human will as unconscious rather than free an even greater achievement than that of renowned psychiatrist Sigmund Freud, who gained prominence popularizing the unconscious.

This series is undoubtedly the most comprehensive treatment of the nature and implications of our human will available anywhere. Equally important, rather than presenting our lack of free will as a disappointing revelation, the series is fully optimistic in showing how our understanding this surreal fact can actually enhance our lives, personally and societelly. Discover what science, reason, and experience have to say about the nature of our human will through this engaging, educational and entertaining weekly podcast.
