We explore the "Gospel of Paranoia"—a theological and social pipeline that has turned pews into echo chambers and replaced the pursuit of truth with a obsession for "hidden" knowledge. Jared breaks down why American Evangelicalism was the perfect breeding ground for modern conspiracy theories and how these "holy" suspicions are used to protect patriarchal power structures and nationalist identities. ## Actions - request_transcript: `POST https://stenobird.com/v1/public/podcasts/faith-and-feminism-237393/episodes/the-gospel-of-paranoia-jared-stacy-on-the-evangelical-to-conspiracy-pipeline/transcription-requests` — Idempotently request low-priority transcript generation for this episode. - read_markdown: `GET https://stenobird.com/podcast/faith-and-feminism-237393/the-gospel-of-paranoia-jared-stacy-on-the-evangelical-to-conspiracy-pipeline.md` — Read the agent-friendly Markdown representation of this episode resource.
