Question 1: [2:30] - “I'm 24 and I just had my first child. Her birth has prompted my husband and I to discuss children more thoroughly and we had both agreed that eventually we would like to adopt a child into our family. However, I have been troubled by some of your videos regarding IQ, genetics, emotional and social potential based on child/parent relationships in the first few years of a child's life. My husband and I now both wonder: is adopting a child (not an infant) the best use of our time and resources when it seems there is compelling data to suggest that disruptions in a child's early home life are difficult if not impossible to overcome?”

Question 2: [38:14] - “With the Referendum vote in the United Kingdom, the political awakening of many European and Northern American populations due to the recent events in the world - is the political left starting to reveal its hatred for democracy and the working class it was supposed to represent?”

Question 3: [1:24:32] - “I can understand why your Intro to Philosophy series takes the path of empiricism in bringing philosophy to beginners; but as someone at a more adept level, I feel a strictly empirical methodology has its limits. For one thing, the scientific method itself relies on faith in the veracity of the senses and the consistency of its rules - things we often take for granted. It also doesn't help in the case of something that is both true and unfalsifiable. Being unable to prove you dreamed of a sparrow doesn't mean it didn't happen. I feel that such a dilemma has far-reaching consequences, particularly in talking about existentialism, metaphysics, justice, free will, and even basic human interactions. If the senses are unreliable, if we can only experience a portion of what's actually there, then can anything be said to be truly objective? How can we know whether one person is hallucinating or if the other is simply blind?”

Question 4: [2:07:38] - “Why do you blame the United States for Iraqi deaths instead of Saddam Hussein? Hussein invaded Kuwait and illegally removed WMD inspectors.”

Question 1: [2:08] - “Is the song 'Bohemian Rhapsody' by Queen the ultimate ballad of male disposability? Is the truth of the song hidden and obscured just enough, so that it could safely pass through to the masses, without being a "message" or political song (like 'Feed The World'). Is there a correlation between Freddie Mercury and someone like Milo Yannopolous - gay dudes coming out (no pun intended) and speaking about the issues of men, because the ordinary cisgendered can't or won't speak from their hearts?”

Question 2: [18:48] - “The recent War on Men show with Suzanne Venker was a major wakeup call for me. While I am a woman, my whole life I have most admired masculine ideals - toughness, courage, rationality - and my interests and hobbies reflect that. Have I subconsciously sabotaged my sexual market value?”

Question 3: [1:43:38] - “I’m a 29-year-old Hispanic male and want to have a discussion about – patriotism. I think I’m experiencing it for the first time ever in my life – like a new emotion – a brand new feeling to explore. With the turmoil happening in our country and monumental events happening in Europe with immigration, Brexit, and an inept European Union seemingly on the verge of turning into a more sinister version of its current self – I do not find myself becoming more disillusioned or confused. What I find is the birth of wholeness and light – a heaviness of weight that feels love, gratitude, and fury for this land I call home. I would only call it patriotism.”

“I would like to hear your thoughts. What is patriotism? How does a people or a society become patriotic or develop a deep-deeded love for their country and its well-being? How is patriotism lost as a society - that feeling, that passion, diminished over time? What are the consequences? Finally, are these global rumblings simply the catalyst for reigniting one’s love for country and kin - is this the natural order of things?"

Question 4: [2:31:58] - Throughout history, there has been a drive towards the strengthening of property rights as nations have become more industrialized. However, there is an ever growing push for social justice and economically egalitarian policies throughout the West. What are some of the falsities of the prosperous European Socialist state, and to what extent is progressive culture and social philosophy destructive of both civilization and the rights and liberties of individuals on personal and economic grounds?”

Question 1: [2:16] - “I used to be a hardcore World of Warcraft raider and basically spent over 10 years of my life going through the motions of school and getting home where I could actually finally just be myself and find ''safe haven'' online with a second family playing video games. Having been a part of that community and still following its growth and scope, it worries me that white people and asians are abandoning the ''real world'' in order to develop their online persona where the real world is almost forgotten.”

“Over the past two years I went on a quest for self-knowledge and to learn how the world actually works after the harsh realization of how pointless my college degree was. Now I try to bring back that knowledge to my online peer group but there is a clear apathy in regards to what happens to the world and toward themselves.”

“I've discovered a lot of my smart close friends that I made online over the years have a very leftist view of the world and either dismiss my arguments, ignore them or attack me whenever I bring it up.”

“Those were some of my best friends and if they won't listen to reason and evidence coming from me and just go on with non-argument personal attacks. Should I bring up the subject over and over again or just drop it and move on to make new friends?”

Question 2: [1:42:35] - “My fiancé and I are deliberating about having children. While we are currently leaning towards no, we want to make sure that our reasons make sense. What reasons would Stefan give for having children to a couple that, while proponents of peaceful parenting and self-knowledge, believe that happiness and a legacy can be obtained without children?”

Question 3: [2:21:27] - “Relating to the Brock Turner case: How is it possible that ‘strong feminists’ reason that when two ‘equals’ get drunk and fool around, that it is the males responsibility to dictate when a woman does or does not know when she wants to have sex? Weren't we all under the impression that feminists believe in ‘my body, my choice?’”

Question 4: [3:04:19] - “I am a black atheist living in the south who is a former democrat. I can see the merits and values that religion gives certain people, and the fact I don't agree with the medium in which the message is given is beyond the point. Also I am against big government regulation and think they should be granted so much power given past events. Recently while talking to a close friend I told him that my ideals and views align more with conservative and he immediately told I couldn't because one I am an atheist. Can atheist consider himself a conservative?”
