Episode #208 ... The moral evolution of a philosopher. (Peter Singer) (Patreon)

Hello. New episode of the podcast just dropped. We talk about some popular ethical positions that you'll run into these days if you're having discussions. Hopefully it helps when trying to understand your own positions better as well as others. The episode is done through examining the moral evolution of philosopher Peter Singer throughout each stage of his career. I think his journey mirrors a journey that a lot of people have. Regardless you'll probably find plenty to agree with and disagree with in this one. Hope you love it and have a great rest of your week!

We talk about Emotivism. R.M. Hare's Prescriptivism. Nozick's Experience Machine. Some thought experiments from Derek Parfit. Henry Sidgwick and Objectivist Hedonistic Utilitarianism.
