Alex Tsakiris: On this episode of Skeptiko a show about freedom and self evident truth. I have an interview coming up in a minute. With Matt Lambo. A first time author who’s written a book that matter of factly lays out what he believes are some self evident truths, but before we get there, let me play a little clip from an old movie. Hammerstad where I think they’re talking about self evident truth.

sir, remember this story while it can’t really call it a story, the history where’s the Spanish guys that go over to Africa. I grabbed these people by gunpoint, chain them up, load them on a boat and head off on their little slaving business venture, but along the way, the Africans rise up, have a little mutiny and decide that maybe those Spaniards should Salem back to Africa. Now it doesn’t turn out that way and they get captured by an American ship. And that leads to this court battle.

And the scene that you saw there is where they were wrestling with the legality of whether that cargo human lives

Could be thrown overboard to reduce the weight of the ship.

Now I think for a lot of us that falls into the category of a self evident truth. That is that you can’t enslave people and force them to do what you want by threat of death.

Here’s the way today’s guests. Matt Lambeau puts it.

(=======)

[00:01:41] Matt Lambeau: All conscious souls long to be free. We want to make our own decisions using our own volition, so we can decide for ourself what’s right and wrong.

So anybody who doesn’t agree with the first fact is going to fall into three categories.

They’re either ignorant of which I’m making of calculus. I get it. We’re all ignorant. They’re captive. They no longer have freedom of thought or they’re either complicit or corrupt,

[00:02:14] Matt Lambeau: , your conscious soul was alive before you were. It will be alive after you die. This exercise on life is a lucid dream where your conscious soul is navigating the physical energy of our universe with that said selfishness in its simplest sense is demanding that others conform to your perception of reality.

. Selfishness on a larger scale is you taking the life, Liberty or pursuit of happiness from another individual. .

[00:02:44] Alex Tsakiris: So, this is an interesting interview. You might like it. You might hate it. But one thing I wanted to point out is that, you know, even though Matt doesn’t have a PhD ,

he sure nailed the moral imperative question a lot better than last week’s guest. Dr. Dean Raden. If you’re a member raid and kind of stumble over the idea of whether morality could ever come into the equation
