A Chat with a Moral Philosopher

Saison 1 · Épisode 21

lundi 10 janvier 2022 • Durée 26:27

What does it mean to be good according to a Moral Philosopher?

In this episode, I talk with Professor of Moral Philosophy, Jeff McMahan.

Jeff McMahan is Sekyra and White’s Professor of Moral Philosophy at the University of Oxford. He has written extensively about issues concerning harming, killing, and saving, such as war, abortion, euthanasia and the evaluation of death. He is also the co-editor of the Journal of Controversial Ideas.

In this conversation, Jeff introduces us to the plurality that exists when it comes to being good according to moral philosophy, as well as sharing his more personal views about moral goodness.

This is a great interview for the times we're living in as we cover what it means to act morally in times of conflict and uncertainty, and most importantly how we engage and remain morally good when talking with those we disagree with.

Bitesize: Let's Do 3 Good Things!

Saison 1 · Épisode 12

lundi 17 mai 2021 • Durée 02:19

For our Bitesize Episode* this month, we’re taking some advice from Hindu Pandita Indrani Rampersad:

"You know I used to teach High School in New York, and I used to teach my kids everyday – when you go home, I want you to do three good things. And tomorrow when you come, tell me what you did.”

This month, let’s do 3 good things – just 3 little things - each day, and make note of what they were at the end of that day because whatever we focus on becomes our reality, so let’s make goodness our reality for the next few weeks.

*In Bitesize Episodes, we’re going to take a few minutes to focus on a theme, topic, or piece of advice related to “How to be Good” that’s come up in our interviews. We'll talk about how we can put advice from our interviews to practical use in our daily life.

Bitesize: The Dangers of Binary Thinking

Saison 1 · Épisode 9

lundi 5 avril 2021 • Durée 08:06

This third Bitesize Episode* focuses on Binary Thinking.

We are living in a time of deep polarity – both politically and socially. It seems our beliefs, opinions and actions are becoming more and more pushed to two far ends of a wide and diverse spectrum.

Binary thinking – the yes/no, right/wrong, start/finish, good/bad way of thinking is something we, as humans, turn to when we’re feeling scared and want a safe space. Binary thinking makes us feel safe because it’s a simple way of looking at the world – it removes uncertainty, complexity, not-knowing and replaces it with certainty, simplicity and all-knowing – or so it feels... let's talk about why that isn't the case.

*In Bitesize Episodes, we take a few minutes to focus on a theme, topic, or piece of advice related to “How to be Good” that’s come up in our interviews. We'll talk about how we can put advice from our interviews to practical use in our daily life.

A Chat with a Muslim Imam - Part 2

Saison 1 · Épisode 8

lundi 22 mars 2021 • Durée 18:21

What does it mean to be a good person according to the teachings of Islam?

This is the second-half of my interview with Imam Abdulah Polovina – if you haven’t listened to the first half yet, then head back to our previous episode and take a listen. We covered what it means for a Muslim to be a good person, talking about the 5 Pillars of Islam, how Muslims feel about forgiveness and what Imam Abdulah recommends we all do more of in our day-to day-lives.

In this second half, Imam Abdulah goes more deeply into the mechanism of faith, and shares his personal experiences of moving to America and being the first Imam to study at a Catholic University. He talks about his experiences living through (and being injured in) the Bosnian War, and we also spend time talking about the role of women in Islam.

If you’d like to learn more about Imam Abdulah Polovina, this is a great article in Portland's Street Roots magazine: Demystifying Islam, a Portland Imam opens his mosque.

A Chat with a Muslim Imam - Part 1

Saison 1 · Épisode 7

lundi 8 mars 2021 • Durée 27:37

What does it mean to be a good person according to the teachings of Islam?

We ask Imam Abdulah Polovina to share his opinions on being a good Muslim. Imam Abdulah is a warm and approachable leader and in this conversation, we talk about what it means for a Muslim to be a good person, talking about the 5 Pillars of Islam, how Muslims feel about forgiveness and what Imam Abdulah recommends we all do more of in our day-to day-lives.

Because our conversation was quite long in length, we've divided it across two episodes. This is part 1 and covers the usual questions we ask about being good – the second part, which is available as our next episode goes into more depth about the mechanism of faith, diving into the role of women in Islam and Imam Abdulah’s experience of the Bosnian war.

If you’d like to learn more about Imam Abdulah Polovina, this is a great article in Portland's Street Roots magazine: Demystifying Islam, a Portland Imam opens his mosque.

Bitesize: Focusing on Forgiveness

Saison 1 · Épisode 6

lundi 22 février 2021 • Durée 08:07

This second Bitesize Episode* focuses on Forgiveness.

This is an area that most of us have an opinion on; we all have experience of trying to forgive or seeking forgiveness – or maybe refusing to forgive.

I’ve asked most of the Faith Leaders I’ve interviewed about this, because many religions and belief-systems have writings, rituals or practices linked to the process of forgiveness. So, let’s start by grounding ourselves in some of the different ways this has been spoken about across our interviews so far, and then spending a few minutes reflecting on how we want to show up when it comes to forgiveness in our own lives.

*In Bitesize Episodes, we’re going to take a few minutes to focus on a theme, topic, or piece of advice related to “How to be Good” that’s come up in our interviews. We'll talk about how we can put advice from our interviews to practical use in our daily life.
