Is Gavin Ortlund A Liberal? Yes.

In this episode I respond to a video that was released by Gavin Ortlund yesterday in which he explains why he thinks that he is not a liberal. Gavin says that there are three reasons why people call him a liberal, but I argue that it’s not that Gavin has three liberal views, but rather that Gavin has an entire framework of thinking that is indistinguishable from liberalism. All of my sources are below. I hope you enjoy!
