In today’s episode of Truth Wanted, Objectively Dan and Jess dissect humanistic tribalism to reveal some interesting conclusions and how to work with family that are grieving during the holidays.
Lewis from NY asks how humanists justify moral priority without it becoming species level tribalism, if moral value were to be based on sentience rather than group membership. Dan explains how this is related to him being a vegan and that we are just as evolved as any other being on this earth. Jess asks the caller to expand on sentience and wants to learn more of how group tribalism works in relation to this dynamic. Lewis explains how non-human animals are the excluded group when in-group bias exists within humanism. Dan reminds us that animals can’t advocate for themselves and it will only be up to humans to make that change in justice. What is the best approach to practicing sentience while preventing species level tribalism?
Benjamin in IL is coming up on the first holiday season without his dad and asks how to deal with his family in relation to processing this loss during this holiday season. What were meaningful activities you would do with your loved ones who are no longer with you each holiday season? What are some ways of talking about time spent with this person that are most appropriate? Are they concerned about talking with you about this and what levels of anxiety do they have about this? Keep holidays fun and remember the eggnog!
Thank you for joining us! Kelley Laughlin, our back-up host joins to close out the show and remind us of the question of the week: What is an innocent text during the day, but not at night? Always keep wanting the truth and we will see you next week!
