play

06/30/24 • 34 min

In this thought-provoking episode, we begin to delve into the complex question of human free will. Are our choices truly our own, or are we simply products of our environment? We examine how society shapes our thoughts and actions, using historical examples to illustrate the power of cultural conditioning. From Nazi Germany to modern-day moral shifts, we explore how easily human behavior can be manipulated. This episode challenges listeners to critically examine their own beliefs and question the origins of their values.

If our thoughts and actions are so heavily influenced by external factors, can we truly claim to have free will? Join us as we grapple with this fundamental aspect of human existence and its implications for our understanding of morality, responsibility, and the very nature of choice.

The Emes of Torah - Ep 4 - In defense of Free Will?
play

07/14/24 • 44 min

In this episode, we tackle the crucial question of free will. We'll dissect common arguments for its existence and show why they fall short. Does feeling free prove we are? Can libertarianism or compatibilism solve the paradox? We'll see why these theories fail to reconcile free will with our deterministic universe.

We'll also challenge the notion that free will is necessary for a moral society. Can we have justice without it? You might be surprised by the answer. We'll explore how punishment and reward could work even in a world without free choice.

Ultimately, we confront the core issue: how can free will exist in a universe governed by cause and effect? Could it be the one exception to this fundamental law? Join us as we unravel this philosophical puzzle, pushing the boundaries of logic and challenging your assumptions about choice and reality.

The Emes of Torah

12/05/23 • 34 min

What makes something morally good or bad? Can God simply command us to do something and make it right? What is the difference between morality and meaning? This episode tackles the big questions around ethics and divine command theory. Join us as we analyze the true definition of "good" and "bad" and explain why desirability and benefit don't equate to morality. Discover the only actions that are truly meaningful and real - the mitzvos. Learn why mitzvos connect us to Hashem and provide an eternal existence, unlike any other deeds. We'll also define what the "right thing" really means and how it relates to the purpose of creation and Hashem's plan. Tune in to gain clarity on morality and enhance your understanding of how mitzvos offer life while other paths lead nowhere. This profound discussion will revolutionize how you view ethics and Torah.

The Emes of Torah - Ep. 7 -Is there morality without G-d
play

11/28/23 • 47 min

What gives meaning to morality? The latest episode tackles this probing question that has perplexed philosophers for ages. Diving deep into the logical flaws of prevailing secular ethical theories, we reveal their fatal deficiencies. Without God, moral codes lose purpose and significance. Ethics become arbitrary and society's rules ring hollow. But invoking a divine power hardly solves the riddle either. New conundrums arise - is God's word itself moral just because He proclaimed it? The episode lays bare the quandaries, yet promises a way forward. Join us on this adventure to ground morality's foundations firm and true, to construct an ethical edifice that will stand the test of time. Get bonus content on Patreon
