Television producer Chuck Lorre told Joe Rogan that societies abandoning belief in God risk drifting toward communist or fascist tyranny.
Television producer Chuck Lorre discussed spirituality on Joe Rogan's podcast on Tuesday, warning that societies abandoning belief in God risk falling into communist or fascist tyranny. Lorre, who created sitcoms including 'The Big Bang Theory' and 'Two and a Half Men', released his memoir 'Sitcom: A Memoir' the same day. Lorre has been raised Jewish, joined the Church of Scientology in his youth and later embraced Buddhism.
Lorre argued that worldly wealth and fame are ultimately not fulfilling. 'It's not the real solution,' he said. 'The real solution, you know, I'm going to say it and then regret it, but the real solution is a spiritual solution. You have to find something beyond this world.' Rogan agreed that the term 'spirituality' has been co-opted by insincere people who have given it a 'bad name', and cited examples of genuinely spiritual people, including a Christian acquaintance who built homes for homeless people and helped them overcome addiction. 'It's like I know people like that too,' Lorre agreed.
