God, Philosophy and UPB Morality...
Livestream 15 May 2023
A flash stream you say? Will you be doing the entire show topless, or are you just planning to lift your shirt up and down repeatedly the whole time?
How do I know when it's time to call it quits in a marriage? I feel like I'm putting a tremendous amount of effort into it and she doesnt want to. What is the ethical line as to whether to stay or not? I would like to fix it, but if she can't let go of the past and reconnect, then what do you do? We made promises, but she is the first to threaten divorce. After days of Silence things cool and talk but it repeats. The kids are sick of it, too. Do you have any suggestions? Thank you Stefan!
Hey Stef curious if you’ve heard of the University Jordan Peterson is starting to bring education costs way down while bringing quality and integrity back to the Institutions of Higher Education.? Was also wondering if you had interest in teaching philosphy in this new University of his… thank you, and thanks again for all you do
How was your mother's day?
To avoid getting sucked into an irrational debate w my dad I hung up the phone. He leaves a voicemail saying if I don’t call back that means I’m in ‘passive agreement.’
Is The Present available to download as an audio file like your other books? I was having trouble finding the link if so.
Im pleasently surprised how much I like the Character Ben in The Present. I love the book so far on Chapter 19.
Thanks for the insights Stef, it is an amazing book. The win-lose mentality ties in very well with Lewis Staten.
It makes sense you’d have to be atheist before determining morality of God since otherwise you wouldn’t go into with a clean slate and instead your preconceived notions would bias your investigation and likely not end up w UPB
I have quite the emotional experience every time I go to Church, Pray or read the Holy Bible. Desipte being an Atheist ( or at least I think I am an Atheist still ).
Reminds me of Aristotle. :)
He called theology the study of beings greater than man.
What if the writers of the Bible knew a lot of what you do, but didn't have the terminology to describe it like we can today, so they had to put it in ancient terms.
Atheism is theological stoicism, it removes emotion and passion which are essential parts of our being.
You could believe in laws of physics but then by definition if God is omnipotent he could suspend the laws temporarily.
I've had a belief for a long time that a lot of religions came out of misinterpreted dreams.
