Compulsion or Compassion? A Look at What’s Behind Political Correctness
<p>In this episode, I talk about the allure of correctness, how I fell into a correctness trap in high school and lost some friends by my over-vigilance in correcting their grammar. Then I try to do a deep dive into what is behind political correctness (PC), trying to do a philosophical examination of alternate justifications for it. Is it sensitivity? Progress? Respect? Love of humanity/society? Tolerance?</p> <p>I end by discussing the effects of PC on our ability to learn and think, and if not political correctness, what can we seek to aim at a more tolerant and humane world.</p> <p><br></p> <p>https://www.nathancheever.com/post/political_correctness/</p>

After Humanity - A Guide to C.S. Lewis’s The Abolition of Man
<p>C.S. Lewis is best known for his work as a Christian Apologist and his fiction series, The Chronicles of Narnia. Yet he considered one of his less well-known works one of his most important. It’s called The Abolition of Man. My guest today, Dr. Michael Ward, has written a guide to The Abolition of Man called <a href="https://www.wordonfire.org/humanity/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">After Humanity</a>. In our conversation we dive into what The Abolition of Man was about, what Lewis meant by the doctrine of objective value he dubs the Tao, and what it means to develop your chest. </p> <ul> <li><a href="https://www.wordonfire.org/humanity/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">After Humanity Book</a></li> <li><a href="https://michaelward.net/" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Michael Ward's website</a></li> </ul>
