I now offer private calls! See what they've had to say at Private Call Testimonials.
What is the reason behind the drift of western culture into empty nihilistic materialistic hedonism? Dr. Jordan Peterson joins Stefan Molyneux to discuss the complicated nature of cultural division, the reduction of personal responsibility, the danger of not "having meaning" in your life, the nature of ideology, developing a sense of efficacy in the world, suffering as an intrinsic component to human nature, the argument for free will and much more!
We chat again with Dr. Duke Pesta, this time on THE TRUTH ABOUT SIN!
We explore gratitude and its historical significance, emphasizing its role in our relationship with God. We discuss self-ownership and how it sets humans apart from animals, as well as the concept of free will and its connection to consciousness. We address the lack of gratitude in society and its impact, and also delve into the issue of sin and Jesus' perspective on it. We discuss the importance of faith, evaluate different ideologies, and highlight the significance of actively loving others.
Noam Chomsky speaks with Stefan Molyneux about the Israeli-Palestinian conflict and how United States involvement has impacted peace talks. Also includes: Jewish-state worship, totalitarian streaks in Jewish thinking, the mainstream media filter, how discussions evolve (or doesn't) through the generations, a road-map to peace and a diplomatic two-state solution.
Philosopher Stefan Molyneux shares his long-time health routine of weightlifting, walking, measured eating, limited sweets and solid sleep, and shows how taking care of the body keeps the mind sharp. He also answers listener questions on spiteful mutants, success and isolation, peaceful parenting by single mothers, and a few other topics.
Questions:
