I am a philosopher with a doctorate and a writer living in Philadelphia. I want to dig deep in this podcast, going beyond the superficial level of daily events. Along with Thoreau, I want to search for the principle behind the myriad instances and applications. All news is gossip, ideas are what drive history.

In this episode, I discuss an article by the Spanish writer Pedro Trevijano in which he distinguishes between two extreme attitudes in one’s moral philosophy. One is pharisiacal and rigid, judging others and claiming possession of absolute truth. The other has no sense of absolute truth and puts everything up for debate. I think this provides a helpful framework for considering ethical issues. https://www.religionenlibertad.com/opinion/574738836/relativismo-moral-catolico-extremismos.html?eti=5293##STAT_CONTROL_CODE_3_574738836##
