SHOW NOTES:

In today's episode, I will be talking all about morality. One of the big questions we will wrestle with today is, "Do objective moral values exist?" In other words, are there actions as human beings that are always wrong no matter what we may think about those actions? Do we have any moral obligations? Another way of saying it is, are there things we ought to do and are there things we ought not do as human beings? Another question we will answer is, if objective moral values exist, what do we ground them in? Where do they come from? Join us as we dive in!

Show Notes:

When was the last time you got into a healthy disagreement? A healthy debate in which you and another person were having a conversation and you happened to disagree on an idea or a topic? A conversation where each of you took the time to thoughtfully express why you believe what you believe without either of you getting offended at the end of the conversation? How often does that happen? In today's episode, I discuss the topic of "Civil Discourse," as I answer three important questions: Why is civil discourse so important? Why is it missing from our society today? And finally, what we can do about it?

Join us for Part 3 of this “Versus” Podcast Series as we wrestle with the fascinating topic of pacifism through the eyes of Leo Tolstoy and C.S. Lewis

In this episode, I focus on the British author C.S. Lewis and his views on non-resistance and Pacifism. As you listen to this, it would be helpful to note that although I agree with Lewis on many topics of debate, as was true of Tolstoy, I do not necessarily agree with all of Lewis' views expressed in this Episode. With that said, my goal is to bring out the very best of his arguments in the most persuasive way possible as to try to convince the listener of his views.

Join us as we wrestle with the fascinating topic of pacifism through the eyes of Leo Tolstoy and C.S. Lewis!

Although it is not often brought up in conversation, the reality is our answer to the question of pacifism will have a huge impact on our lives. As a matter of fact, in some ways, it already has. Here are a few reasons why this question matters: Our views on guns and gun control are impacted. Our views on war and government are impacted. Our views on self-defense are impacted. How we decide to raise our children is impacted. How we choose to celebrate the heroes of the past is impacted. Even our religious convictions are impacted.
