À propos de cet audio

 A philosophy podcast intended for a general educated audience with no specific background in the subject. Listeners will pick up on a consistent theme of skepticism throughout the entirety of the podcast. As impressive as our species is, we actually do not know much in the way of answers to substantial philosophical questions. While some may see this as a reason for despair, I want to explore whether there are benefits to — or at least interesting consequences of — conceiving of both the human situation and existence itself as fundamentally mysterious.Copyright 2025 Gods Will Be Gods Art Philosophie Sciences sociales Éducation
