SEX AND THE CITY UNPACKED!

I'm going to be co-leading a Bible Study soon, I want to do an amazing job and be a good leader. In the study and else where. What do you think are good qualities in a leader I could emulate?

What do you think about the Christian high value of confession, bearing each other’s burdens and encouragement?

Stef, u would make a great minister/pastor.

How would a privately-funded military handle terrorism?

This reminds me of therapy. You've mentioned many times how beneficial therapy was for you. What style was it? Was it Jungian or more like CBT? I've heard you mention you did anima-work and dream analysis.

I wonder if people worry about global warming cause they are subconsciously afraid of hell

Stef is that why people don't seem to want to work anymore? Because they know the system is not sustainable?

I think a solution to shyness would be exposure therapy. Just try having a small conversation and take it one step at a time

Stef, I believe I found a great, virtuous woman. However, I am still drawn to more physically attractive women. Why am I so focus on the physical appearance of women? I think this will be ny downfall. I don't want to end up being alone and childless.

What would you say to peaceful parents of 2 kids who think they won't have time to commit to more kids?

Thank you for all you do Stephan. Im grateful for all you do. Any advice for strengthening a marriage as far as communication? As a man who has spent alot of time in my own world, I find I have trouble conveying thoughts and idea to my wife from time to time

Does lying break UPB?

Stef what's your opinion on "over sharing" Could it be a form of compensating for something? Or maybe seeking validation or acceptance?

"I'm the best you can get honey, I ain't changing". Sigma energy dripping from attitude

My gf's sister "saves" money by living with a guy she's not with. She's doing her masters, can't find a partner and is getting desperate

Sex and the City is a weapon of mass destruction. All the potential baby's that could have been

Hi Stef, what is the line between indoctrinating children with a religion and using said religion to provide moral instruction? Can you provide moral instruction in a religious context with it being a form indoctrination?

Listening to How to Survive Sin. Amazing show. Unfortunately parallels closely with my life.

The Logic of Spanking

Stefan Molyneux explores the debate on corporal punishment, specifically spanking, within child-rearing practices. He examines the moral implications of using force against children compared to adults, arguing that while violence is morally unacceptable in adult interactions, society still permits spanking. Molyneux challenges the justification of corporal punishment by questioning the assumption that children are incapable of reason and drawing comparisons with mentally impaired individuals. He critiques the idea that spanking is a necessary preventive measure for worse behaviors, advocating instead for positive reinforcement models over negative consequences. This discussion highlights the detrimental effects of physical punishment on children's understanding of empathy and respect, ultimately calling for a reevaluation of disciplinary methods towards more compassionate approaches in parenting.

UPB Versus Evil!

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux provides a philosophical exploration of morality, centering on the concept of universally preferable behavior (UPB) and its role in defining moral actions. He examines the immorality of actions such as theft and assault, arguing that they violate UPB's principles. Through a logical framework, the discussion distinguishes between moral and immoral actions, asserting that any action failing to be universally preferable cannot be deemed moral.

Stefan highlights the asymmetry of force initiation, underscoring that coercion inherently contradicts moral behavior. The implications of advocating flawed moral theories are also explored, illustrating how these theories can lead to destructive real-world consequences. He emphasizes the importance of logical coherence in ethical theories and warns against self-contradictory moral claims, concluding that adherence to UPB is essential for a just society.
