256: Atheism and the Well-Lived Life

from Philosophy Talk Starters · host Philosophy Talk Starters

More at http://philosophytalk.org/shows/atheism-and-well-lived-life. Atheists don't believe in God – does that mean they don't find life meaningful? Are atheists doomed to be grouchy nihilists, finding meaning only in criticizing theists? Or does a world without God offer its own meanings and values to structure a well-lived life? John and Ken search for a meaningful atheism with Louise Antony from UMass Amherst, editor of "Philosophers Without Gods: Meditations on Atheism and the Secular Life."
