Episode 3: "We believe in nothing!" (Cultural diversity, relativism, and moral truth)
from Very Bad Wizards · host Tamler Sommers & David Pizarro
Tamler and Dave discuss recent work in philosophy and psychology about the differences in moral values and practices across cultures. We talk about the implications of moral diversity: does it mean that we cannot criticize that practices of other cultures? How should we regard moral disagreement? Are there objective "truths" in ethics? Somehow we need to play clips from The Big Lebowski and Pulp Fiction in order to resolve these questions.
