  6. Question 1: [2:22] – “In order to prove UPB you set up imaginary scenarios where certain behaviors are moral, such as rape, murder, theft and so on. For example, if two people are in a room and theft is moral then both people need to be continually trying to steal from each other in order to act morally. Therefore, it’s impossible to be moral and also constantly trying to steal because the situation becomes completely unworkable as everyone is always stealing from everyone else. What I want to know is how does UPB prove a situation is immoral where, for example, it is moral to attempt to rape/steal/commit fraud but only on occasions? Surely in this situation both parties can always be acting morally so long as they are only trying to commit the act every now and then.” Question 2: [16:40] – “My early 20's started with a rough turn of events based on my poor decisions. Overcoming addiction, arrests, poor relationship choices, which resulted in a baby who is now 7. The father is in and out of prison to whom she is unaware of. I cleaned up 8 years ago (drug court) and married a wonderful man who I have been with for 6 years. We started with virtually nothing and are now successful in our skilled trades. My question is I recently accepted a new role within my company that requires about 75% travel. I would like to give my husband his own child but am not sure I want more children. My success and financial health and security is very important to me. Being in my 30's I know I don't have forever to decide. Will I regret and have a husband who has contempt for not sharing a child with him even though he has adopted my daughter as his own. How do I weigh my values of family over my career? Also, at what time is the right time to explain to our daughter her true biological beginning without instilling insecurities or deception?" Question 3: [2:01:47] – “I've been investigating into the nature of the current political dynamic of universities and various social institutions in the contemporary west. When you mentioned it on your show with Tom Woods, I gained interest in the thesis you wrote in college about the relationship between metaphysics and politics. From the reading, and research I've conducted, I've come to the conclusion that Friedrich Nietzsche has more of an influence on the implementation of progressive policies (economic, and political) than Karl Marx. Could the arbitrary and deconstructionist nature of Nietzschean philosophy have more of an impact on the revolutionary and materialist tendencies that Marxism employs? Or rather do they complement each other on a purely ideological basis?” Question 4: [2:43:52] – “I have come across a particular topic about how fines are given to different economic classes. I have had peers explain how fair it would be if a millionaire was speeding and a low-income person was speeding and they each got a ticket the millionaire should be fined more due to his money. Finland is an example of a country that implements this fine policy. My peers explain to me that this policy is to make crimes such as speeding and other illegal acts more punishing for the wealthy. I feel as if this still does not justify this policy to be in place. I feel that all laws should be enforced equally among all people and that punishing the wealthy for being wealthy doesn't seem right to me.” Question 5: [2:57:55] – “During a recent show you asked a caller ‘was there no one else out there’ regarding his choice to marry someone who had a child via rape. Why do you feel this way? As a woman that had that situation, I felt it was an over generalized statement that was unwarranted. Women in my situation should know they have other options as well. Do you think women can restore their sexual market value after being raped?” Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.

  13. Question 1: [1:08] – “You have always compared religion to government, in the sense that you say that atheists have ripped away religion from people and left them stranded with nothing. No moral basis, or anything. Please correct me if I'm wrong or misunderstand you. You make the analogy that the religious were in a church, and atheists ripped that church apart, without providing an alternative for morality, or whatever the religion was providing, which you seem to view as a necessity for humans (for reasons I still don't understand). Why do you think that removing (the delusional) governments would not have the same destructive effect as removing (the delusional) religions? Don't you think there are destructive effects of removing governments, just like removing religions? Don't you think that humans are hard-wired to seek authority?” Question 2: [50:38] – “I’m in a difficult 23-year marriage. While I’ve not always been a saint, I’ve worked very hard the last 12-13 years to be a great provider, great father, and great citizen. No matter how much effort I give, my wife sees me as a tyrant and someone she needs to protect herself and our children from. How do I move forward in this relationship OR how do I give up on my ‘marriage vows’ and throw in the towel?” Question 3: [2:02:05] – “I'm a 28-year-old woman and started listening to FDR last year and since then my life has completely changed. I went from being single women with a serious case of hypergramy and risking a cat-lady life to being in a relationship with a loving, kind, devoted man with a deep integrity who I would have never given a chance in the past. We're already talking about marriage and are so excited to start a family and teach our children to become strong men and women of reason and virtue. Because I'm about to hit the wall I know I'll be losing my SMV and therefore my power, which frankly makes me a little anxious, how do I age well as a woman in practical terms? Is there a way to replace my sexual power so I can do good as I get older instead of fading into an invisible middle-aged woman? Or is it a virtue to accept losing this power?” Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.

  20. Question 1: [1:44] – “I'm 22 and from England, I'm engaged, and my partner and I are very happy. My life plans consist of starting a family reasonably soon and leaving my work behind in favor of being a stay at home mum. The problem is, in choosing this life, I've pushed away almost all family members and friends. I haven't been completely rejected, but I have horrified and disgusted everyone I know with my decision to reject a university offer in favor supporting my partner rather than competing with him. I have been called reckless and stupid, or the other way and they've called me a lazy leech. The sheer abundance and hostility I have been met with has made me question myself and my decisions because it is highly unlikely that I alone am correct and literally everybody else is wrong. Do you have any advice for the average person trying to start and keep a stable family in a world that's so hellbent on destroying it? Surely isolation cannot be the answer?” Question 2: [1:14:03] – “I have heard you say "Separation of church and state" several times, I have also heard you say it's a Western idea or Western inventions which it certainly isn't. I am shocked that you would say that for a couple of reasons, first because it means absolutely nothing, it's like saying common sense gun control, or vast-right wing conspiracy or multiculturalism its just empty words that mean nothing. No one ever defines what it means. it's just a PC thing people say to appease other people. It's pseudo-intellectualism. It is something I expect to hear from a government school teacher or Jon Stewart, not a philosopher like yourself Since you use this phrase multiple times, I must ask what does it mean? Why do you think its a western idea and why would it be a good thing?” Question 3: [2:06:00] – “You have made it clear that you are against men dating single mothers. You are also against abortions. However your approach fails to consider that 1/3 of British women have had an abortion, likely due to pressure to peruse a career first. There are high odds that a man could be dating a single mother of a dead child she got aborted. Many abort to increase their dating prospects as you can hide an abortion from a man, but not a child.” Question 4: [3:04:42] – “This young grasshopper is going to attempt to snatch the pebble from the master’s hand. I challenge Stefan to debate me on his hypothesis for ‘Magic is Always Madness.’ Stefan argues: ‘Magic in stories is always and forever a metaphor for madness’, and ‘Thus, 'is it universal' is the first question that you must ask of your argument’. I like the application of this view of magic to some stories, but I do not think it is universally applicable. Why does a way of seeing a metaphor in stories need to be universally applicable? Is a way of seeing a metaphor in stories an argument? I am arguing: That ‘Magic is Always Madness’ is not universally applicable.” Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.
