Topic 1: Theism and the Problem of Evil
In this topic we're talking about the question that just won't go away: if God is so great, why does bad shit happen? Special focus on: does bad shit really happen, or does it just seem like bad shit is happening?
NOTE: We're grateful to our sponsor, Pontifex Maximus, for helping us bring this topic to you! With your purchase of this topic, you get a FREE DOWNLOAD of their hit song, "With You or Without You, This Really is the Best of all Possible Worlds"!
Topic 2: Justice and Inequality
In this topic we get very current-eventsy, asking deep questions about whether it's "fair" that some people just inherit huge sums while others have to beg for food. Our discussion will center on the question, "Wait, 'fairness?' Is that really even a thing?"
NOTE: We're thrilled to be sponsored by the Liberty-FTW! Institute for presentation of this great topic! Thanks, liberty guys!
Topic 3: Philosophy of Science
Is science for realz? You may not know it, but for hundreds of years philosophers have been, like, OMG we're not sure! Special consideration of the question: Science after Hume: is it all just a matter of faith?
NOTE: A big shout out to our fantastic sponsor, the Center for a Happy, Healthy Climate. Check out their new video: Carbon Dioxide Is Your BFF!
