3976 The Death of White Guilt - Call In Show - January 17th, 2018




Freedomain with Stefan Molyneux show

Summary: Question 1: [1:19] – “In Death by DACA, Stefan asks a question that comes up in my life often when discussing the topic of America as a nation, culture and Government with anyone: Do children inherit things their parents obtained illegally? Stefan goes on to say ‘Do Bernie Madoffs Children get to keep the profits of his Ponzi scheme? Well, no, I mean, it all has to go back.’ I’d like to ask Stef, who truly owns America? The reason the answer to this question is important to me is that when discussing this topic in my personal life I often find myself unclear of how the European colonialist settlers have a valid claim to America when they acquired the land through initiating coercion against the indigenous people who were already here. I believe that clarifying the truth on this matter will help to bring unity between individuals and create a greater incentive to refrain from using the force of the government to resolve the cultural and political conflicts that are still present in our present society. On a personal level it will give me more confidence when facing the aggression and hostility that this topic can manifest when I’m debating the subject.”<br><br>Question 2: [20:10] – “Most philosophers and at least a plurality of scientists (Stephen Jay Gould being one) say that we cannot rationally believe or disbelieve in God. Given social evidence that Christianity (especially when not State sponsored) has led to higher living standards and more freedoms while using non-violent means to curb social excesses, like ostracism, while atheistic States have been many times more brutal than the worst State-Church unions, and the fact that molecular biology and biochemistry have raised more questions than answers regarding origin of life science, could there be enough circumstantial evidence to change your mind?”<br><br>Question 3: [39:21] – “I am a 24-year-old woman and I am seeing more and more of my young cousins, 18-21, doing absolutely nothing. These are young men and women raised in middle class, happy homes. They refuse to work, even if they have gone through college or a trade school. My worry is that they will never do anything with their lives despite their intelligence, how do I explain to them the importance of work and economic success?”<br><br>Your support is essential to Freedomain Radio, which is 100% funded by viewers like you.
