Can There Be Objective Morality Without God? | Nietzsche, Hume, Dostoyevsky, Sam Harris In this thought-provoking episode, we dive deep into one of philosophy’s oldest and most divisive questions — is there such a thing as objective morality in a godless universe?Featuring references to Nietzsche, Dostoyevsky, Hume, William Lane Craig, Sam Harris, Voltaire, and Christopher Hitchens, we explore the clash between moral relativism, utilitarianism, and objective ethics.
