In this thought-provoking video, we explore the complex and interrelated topics of betrayal, purpose, and higher education in the context of U.S. politics. We begin by examining the controversial figure of Judas and the possibility that his betrayal of Jesus was actually an "inside job" orchestrated by Jesus himself. We explore the arguments for and against this theory and consider what it might mean for our understanding of purpose and sacrifice.

From there, we delve into the concept of eudaimonia, or human flourishing, and its connection to living a life of purpose and meaning. We explore how this ancient Greek philosophy has been revived and adapted in contemporary psychology and positive psychology, and consider its implications for individual and societal well-being.

Finally, we turn our attention to higher education and its role in shaping our political culture. We explore how the values and ideas that are taught and learned in universities and colleges are shaping the ways in which we think about politics and engage with one another as citizens. We consider the challenges and opportunities that higher education presents for promoting civic engagement, critical thinking, and democratic values.

Whether you are a student, a political junkie, or simply someone interested in the big questions of life, this video is sure to inspire and challenge your thinking. So grab a cup of coffee, sit back, and join us on this journey of discovery and reflection.
