Tropes

  • "Arabian Nights" Days: A trope that normally appears when Filip covers Islamic philosophy and literature, as most stories regarding them take place during the Islamic golden age.
  • The Commandments: A given, since the series talks about religion it normally delves on societal rules that come with being part of a religious group.
  • Contemplate Our Navels: Both played straight and averted, as Filip covers traditions that embrace it as pursuit of enlightenment through contemplation, or outright condemn it as something that leads to apathy towards society.
  • Jesus Was Way Cool: Filip's opinion on Jesus' portrayal in the bible.
    Filip: I like Jesus, according to the way he was portrayed in the gospels of the new testament, he seems like a really swell dude.
  • Production Posse: Has formed one with several similar religious scholarship-centric youtube creators, such as Esoterica and Al Muqadimmah
