Reviewing: Criticism of Atheism 3 – SciPhi

Reviewing: Criticism of Atheism 3 – SciPhi

Another Video Review? Yes, sorry, another one. Having been incredibly busy we thought we would do another video review. We thought that perhaps Haitham Talaat might have produced a better video than his last. It turned out worse. At least in episode 2 he seemed to be trying to engage in an open dialogue but…

Reviewing: ‘Criticism of Atheism & Proving the Validity of Islam | E2 How did atheism begin’ – SciPhi

Reviews From time to time Dave and I do reviews, be it of sites, situations, podcasts, books, or videos. We find it a nice change of pace and a way to gain a different perspective and test our knowledge. Sometimes the person/people we review communicate with us and we strike up a great dialogue and…

Moral Particularism & Value Pluralism

Moral Particularism & Value Pluralism

Moral Particularism and Value Pluralism Do particular circumstances affect the moral value of an action? Are there multiple values to assess when looking at moral judgements? Are there any particular standards we should base morality on or is it just what we feel is right at the time? Joi@kriss, @trolleydave and @davidian for tonight’s ethical…

Objective Morality? Be Real(ist) – SciPhi

Objective Morality? Be Real(ist) – SciPhi

Moral Realism Moral Realism states that there are some moral truths that are agent independent. Whilst not all moral judgements are necessarily objective, some are, at least under moral realism. We explore if morality can indeed be objective as well as answering questions and statements about moral relativism, subjectivism, and discussing truth-apt statements. Objective Morality!?…

The Problem of Dirty Hands – SciPhi

The Problem of Dirty Hands – SciPhi

What is ‘The Problem of Dirty Hands’? We discuss the problem of dirty hands, no, not the german porn star. We question if it is possible to do the “right thing” by doing the “wrong thing”? We also question if that makes the “wrong thing” a “moral action”. If you hadn’t guessed ‘Dirty Hands’ is…

God is Dead – SciPhi

God is Dead – SciPhi

‘God is Dead…’ “God is dead, and we have killed him”. Or so Nietzsche’s madman proclaimed. As atheism becomes more popular, Nietzsche’s madman becomes more relevant. We discuss the madman’s words, and how they relate to atheism in the modern-day. Many people misunderstand what Nietzche was trying to say with his ‘God is Dead’ statement,…

New Atheism and New Atheists w/ Ozymandias Ramses II – SciPhi

We had a discussion of new atheism and new atheists with Ozymandias Ramses II, both from the conception of the term and what it was meant to describe to how it now often used as an insult to a particular group of atheists who demonstrate a number of negative behaviours. This is one of our…

It’s a Load of CAC (Reviewing the ‘Official Definition of Atheism’) – SciPhi: 034

It’s a Load of CAC (Reviewing the ‘Official Definition of Atheism’) – SciPhi: 034

Is there an ‘Official Definition’ of atheism? Atheism is polysemous, so anyone telling you they have the ONLY definition of atheism or those other definitions of atheism are WRONG is completely off the mark. With how language works, any definition of atheism, or any word for that matter, is perfectly valid. There are terms that…
