Freedomain Call In Show 10 Jul 2020: THE MIND/BODY SPLIT!
Questions/Topics:
Q1:
What is next for Freedomain now that you have been deplatformed?
Q2: 0:02
who called it better, George Orwell or Ayn Rand, and why?
Q3: 0:37
What are Stef's thoughts on an ancap society forming online as crypto currency and work/school from home are becoming more popular?
Follow-on: Does Stef think 'the powers the be' (Government, bankers, etc) would stop something like this? Would they let people 'out of the system?'
Q4: 0:56
What are Stef’s thoughts on Carl Rogers? Was Rogers influential in anyway to him?
Q5: 1:16 or so
What advice do you have for staying sane in these crazy times? Your comments on the “start stop” of the economy and society wearing down on people prompted this question. I definitely feel that weariness and disorientation and was wondering if you had any thoughts on how to relieve those feelings, what kinds of relationships and activities would be good to try since COVID-fied society isn’t really avoidable.
Q6: 1:33 or so
The other day I logged on to a social media site for the first time in close to a decade. I noticed very quickly that many people I grew up with were rabidly posting leftist propaganda. I then looked through over a hundred profiles of people I've known over the years. It was the same. This is particularly startling because I live in a low population region in the western US. Is the time for talk over? Is the end of western civilization near? Should I be fleeing to Poland or something? I do not wish for my kids to experience war.
Q7: 1:47
I recall how Stef mentioned he was scared of a Great Dane as a kid from the last call in. What made him like dogs again and what's his favorite breed/mix?

Atheists Can't Prove Ethics!
Stefan Molyneux explores Universally Preferable Behavior (UPB) and how it fits into moral philosophy, drawing contrasts between atheistic and theistic views. He responds to a listener's criticism about depending on UPB rather than divine commands for morality, maintaining that ethics need to be rational and consistent. He points to historical figures who were atheists and led stable lives to counter the idea that existence without God results in disorder. Molyneux breaks down moral rules, showing how contradictions weaken their standing. He critiques certain aspects of current Christian ethics, especially government-run welfare programs, and considers what that means for voluntary giving and ethical consistency. In the end, he supports UPB as a logical base for ethics that matches human thought and the world around us.

Jeremy Kauffman Versus His Son!
Stefan Molyneux examines a parenting situation with Jeremy Kauffman and his son, focusing on a dispute about a dropped carrot. He points out how this reflects aspects of child development, such as finding a balance between obedience and independence, especially in boys. He notes that children's actions often echo their parents' and suggests avoiding rigid responses to pushback. Molyneux highlights curiosity in parenting as a way to grasp what drives children, which can help build connections and improve dialogue, while prompting a fresh look at typical discipline practices.
