Episode notes

In traditional moslem culture, desecrating a koran is worse than the idea of accidentally dropping a bombn on school children. So when u ow that, they're far more exercised over the former than the latter. They're willing to die and watch their children die, to rectify the sacrilege that a koran was mistreated. But there's no as if you were blameworthy, is lik no, no. Is that what we mean by blameworthyn Nm?

Sam Harris gets back in the VBW ring for another round on moral responsibility, ethical theories, and the grounds for our obligations to other people. Are we at a genuine stalemate when it comes to blame and desert? Is Tamler a closet consequentialist? Is Sam a closet pluralist? Why is Dave such a big Wagner fan? Plus, Twitter shaming: what is it good for? Settle in, get comfortable, pour yourself a drink, you’re in for the long haul on this one.
