The Street Epistemology Podcast

Recorded: 12 May 2018 Published: 12 May 2018 Released: 15 May 2018 Watch video of talk here: https://youtu.be/WFe0Kaq09RI My favorite part of this discussion was when the person I was interviewing, after being asked a thought-provoking question about her belief, and after pondering for a moment how to answer, said: “Now I have to think about that. What have you done?” I love seeing that, and any conversation that causes self-reflection and a critical self-examination of one’s beliefs, is successful in my book. Aliyah is an atheist. She believes there is no God due to insufficient evidence. So we talk briefly about the role of evidence in her belief, as well as what would count as sufficient evidence for her. What would it take to convince her that there was, in fact, a God?

In this discussion, Shanna and I explore her fear of enclosed spaces. Related: Music provided by Chet Hovatter. Mistakes: "I am lovely" was a weird thing to say to Cherry.

Recorded: 14 April 2018 Published: 27 April 2018 Released: 27 April 2018 Claudia believes that everything happens for a reason. So I ask her about how she knows this is true. How would we put such a claim to the test? If we know it is true because of the connection between seemingly random events, then what if, hypothetically, one of those events had not occurred? How do we distinguish between a connection between two events being because everything happens for a reason, and a connection being because of our interpretation after the fact? What role do our memories play in understanding such things? Is it possible for such connections to occur and yet everything not happen for a reason? What would disprove her belief? If she were wrong about this belief, would she want to know, and what difference would it make? Would life be any less meaningful for her if she found out that everything didn’t happen for a reason? Listen and find out how she thinks through all these things. Also, I apologize for some of the wind noise. I recently bought a wind cover for my camera that I think should solve the problem. Thanks for listening, and participate in the conversation by leaving a comment. Would you have done anything different if you were talking with Claudia about her belief? How would you explore her method of arriving at this particular truth claim?

Recorded: 5 April 2018 Published: 6 April 2018 Released: 6 April 2018 Here, I talk with Rozetta about her belief that the Bible is true. She believes this, she says, because she has yet to find any untrue things in the Bible. So we talk about what untrue things she would have to find in order to decrease her level of certainty. We also talk about how open she would be to changing her mind if that evidence were in place. If finding true things in the Bible makes the Bible true, would finding untrue things make the Bible untrue? Rozetta explains how she works through all this to arrive at her conclusion.
