I live in a place with tons of new age folks. They are a menace. they tell people to go off their anti-psychotics, to replace chemotherapy with herb tea, that they can cure cancer with a PH balanced diet and medicine in poison. They don't have to be politically odious to be dangerous, don't have to be Jim Jones to be a menace.

I always hated atheism for it's "matter of fact" opinion towards something that cannot and, most likely, will not ever prove. Just because you cannot see something doesnt mean that it does not exist. I like it to a lack of spiritual object permanence. Hating the institutions of religion and what not is fine but I really dont think anyone can truly understand what is ultimately outside the realm of our perception.

20:55 That's what weirds me out about this argument: it's always an appeal to rationality. "Oh reason shows that our brains will just turn off." If our brains are just meat computers firing neurons, who's to say that the neurons in your brain are any more or less correct than mine? Why would we all have these rules of logic that exist completely outside of our brains that we all agree on, and how can you appeal to rationality as an argument for there being no God or afterlife if our brains are just products of evolution, since our brains are only made for making babies and killing predators rather than finding the answers to the deepest questions about life?

Duuude that thing with cannabis around the 12 min mark, when you talked about not experiencing others reality and perspective, its something I think about a lot when I'm high, so interesting, and sad too, but mostly interesting imo

I would want to know if a comet is hitting the earth and killing everyone . I would maximise my level of Euphorie if I know I died soon . I would try heroin and other hard and dangerous drugs. You could at least feel happy .
The unknown death is for me personally way more scary, because I would have missed much . With knowledge you could at least try to be happy af .

I really didn't like this one.
Sisyphus: gives a very detailed filosophical point
Other guy: "…yeah…"
Repeated the existencial crisis topic like 3 times and he was extremely nitpicky with some of your points.

At first I was genuinely annoyed by this podcast how it essentially just completely dismissed any credibility within the Christian belief on the afterlife, now I don't believe in God anymore and despite all of the implications that come with that statement I'm just contemplating how strange it is. The fact that I can be offended by the dismissal of one view, move away from that view and realise there are millions of people who still hold it but in even more dangerous ways. I don't believe heavy philosophy and contemplation is completely necessary for everyone in life, however just being able to contemplate helps put things in perspective for me.

Why should I fear death?
If I am, then death is not.
If Death is, then I am not.
Epicurus eased my mind over death. I have become an atheist (I guess this is what I am) at age 16 maybe? Since then dying and just ceasing to exist terrified me. I started think about the life without me, then I realised that I will not have the ability to do this when I am dead.
I will just not be here, my consciousness will not be existing to worry about it. This type of thinking gives me peace regarding the matter.

I hold a small contention with the blanked dismissal of "new age philosophy," there is just too much here to hold judgements on collectively. Anything from psychadelics to meditation, even transgressive art. Science is spreading the line thin between what is statistically quantifiable and what is 'woo.' Thank you for coming to my Ted Talk.

But isn't the idea that all there is beyond life is a short nothingness more freeing than if you thought you served a purpose?

A chair is a chair because it is a place to sit. You look at that chair as an action. It is no longer the tree that has made it. There's a brain disease out there where if you walk past an Open Door. You will need walkthrough and forget why but you did it because you seen a doorway a doorway is designed to walk through. Please see this

In my opinion both of you are wrong new age spiritual has the same purpose as urban legends the beliefs are like sorts of wishes people have to make life less mundane all of the beliefs are centered in the idea that oh wouldn’t that be cool or interesting

I understand what terror management theory is but I don’t get how it applies to all humans. If all human acts are to avoid thinking about death then why do philosophers choose a job that requires a lot of thought about death. Why did you guys at the beginning talk about death. I mean you make these podcasts because you enjoy them so you must enjoy contemplating about death. So how does terror management theory apply to all humans when some humans enjoy thinking about death.

11:14 To me, that feeling reminds me of being in the corner of a large empty room, looking into the room itself. Seeing every aspect of it but not being able to "touch" them all. Does that make sense?
58:51 There's a name for that. It's called the "Forer Effect".

Kinda irritating how ya’ll talk about and try to reframe spirituality without i dunno, asking someone why they follow whatever it is they follow. You make a conclusion based on your perspective and it is rather judgmental and one sided. Furthermore, though you say provides certainty to people, you also say it is “NFL for people with stinky houses” and that does not properly recognize the utility of it. Statistical models do not always reflect reality well, but they still help to understand it better. The utility of a tool is unchanged by your personal opinion.
Felt like you were looking down on people for seeking certainty in something that you don’t view as real. Came off as arrogant and pretentious is all. Other than that segment I mostly enjoyed this content.

In my opinion there is a lot to learn from Buddhism. I do not believe in reincarnation or karma or anything of that matter. But I do believe that with meditation and enough self-discipline we can find peace within ourselves. I like to imagine Sisyphus has reached this state of enlightenment as well as holding on to that sense of hope that you spoke about. I try to appreciate every experience I encounter in my life good and bad, and learn as much as I can from them. Before birth we were one with everything when we die we will be the same. This mentality keeps me at ease. Also great podcast looking forward to the next one!
