Talk Heathen 04.29 2020-07-19 with Eric Murphy & Vi La BIanca
Greetings, Heathens! Today’s episode of Talk Heathen is brought to you by WEAR YOUR DAMN MASK! It’s very important, still. The dynamic duo are back together in today’s episode, and they have an announcement for us all. #LaMurph! It should be a great show! Also: Happy First Anniversary on the show Vi. We’re all so glad you’re here!
Let’s get to calls! The first caller is Nav from New Zealand, who recently deconverted and is wondering how to talk to his religious family.
Next up, returning caller Hadi from North Carolina would like to talk about how truth corresponds with reality. A belief being beneficial doesn’t always make it true.
The following caller named Shawn from Colorado wonders about subjectivity that we are born into and the conception of objectivity. This reminds one a bit of hard solipsism and so much navel-gazing bullshit, just trying to use cool words to prove faith is a sound epistemology.. Eric and Vi dig in and work through some of this philosophy. Down the rabbit hole we go!
Link in Washington wants to discuss his discomfort with his own cognitive dissonance and is curious about using epistemological tools to get to the truth. He also feels as though cherry picking and being a “cafeteria Christian” can hook you and provide tools that aren’t helpful in finding truth in the world.
Next up, our last caller is Ruby in Germany, who would like to know why the Western countries see the hijab as a symbol of protest or freedom, and worries this perception may further oppression in Muslim dominant countries. She goes on to say it is an illusion of choice in these countries. The problem here is that in Western countries, we are free to decide how we dress and how we wear our hair. Once it becomes a requirement, that is when it is closer to oppression.
That’s our episode for today! Thanks to all the essential workers out there, we appreciate you! Thank you to the peaceful protesters still making noise, you are also appreciated! Wear your masks and stay healthy! See you next time! And always remember, #LaMurph
