The Good, The Bad And The Unknown | Gita Sahgal, David Owens, Sebastian Farquhar




Philosophy For Our Times show

Summary: Looking for a link we mentioned? It's here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimes We all want a better world and most see morality as helping to choose the right actions. Yet we can't know for sure the outcome of any action. Is morality therefore curiously independent of outcomes? Does this leave it without foundation or function? Or do good and bad have no place in this world at all? Centre for Secular Space founder Gita Sahgal, philosopher and author of Causes and Coincidences David Owens, and director of the Centre for Effective Altruism Sebastian Farquhar discuss the outcomes of our actions.
