In this episode we consider the nature of truth:

What does it mean for a thing to be true?

What does it mean to be "true for me" and "true for you"?

In science things are "true to the best of our current understanding."

In this episode, I talk about life as a caregiver, grief, politics, faith, and the strange process of being radicalized by basic human decency. It’s a personal one. There’s some ranting, some reflecting, some philosophizing, a sunrise, and probably too much caffeine.

Also, I thought we were pro-life?

Welcome to the first episode of the Friendly Neighbhorhood Philosopher podcast! I was inspired by Northern Exposure's Chris in the Morning to become a philosphy major and for the last 30 years I've been thinking philosophically about pretty much everything.

In this episode:

How does our philosophical (or theological) outlook help us weather hardship?

How did current evangelicals get so far off of Christ's teachings?

What are the social effects of negative polarization?
