Today Jeremy is joined by Matt Franklin of Foundation Father. They discuss pre-Christian civilization, the absurdity of internet athiests arguing from a position so entrenched in Christian ethics, and what we can reason from first principles if we were to create a societal safety net that did not start with the presupposition that equality is the ultimate good.
On this episode, we talk about:
01:04 Matt's thread about why internet athiests would be begging for Christendom
05:43 The non-existent safety net in pre-Christian pagan culture
11:58 Did the values of our civilization get "reasoned" into existence during the Enlightenment?
14:42 Rational Christian presuppositions and the lack of intellectual athiests
16:48 Reasoning from first principles
18:43 Creating a safety net from first principles that balances the tension between those who want to help people and what is fair and just
22:50 A countercultural way to run a business
