The Caffeine Stream

Episode 16: Morality and Autism


Listen Later

In today's episode, we begin by addressing the age-old question "can you be good without God?" and springboard into a broader discussion about the relationship between autism and contemporary Western Morality:

  • Most moral theories don't require God
  • The annoying traps of equivocation in moral discussions
  • Jonathan Haidt on autism and morality
  • Utilitarianism, Deontology, and Christian moral ontology as autistic moral systems
  • Systematizing vs Organic, intuitive moral thinking
  • Why true Christianity isn't autistic (but it's moral ontological apologists are)

I am also including a link to Jonathan Haidt's presentation, which everyone interested in this subject should read or hear.
