Philosopher Stefan Molyneux challenges the existence of God from a philosophical perspective, drawing on decades of study. He defines existence and categorizes entities into three groups: those that exist, those that may exist without proof, and self-contradictory entities. Focusing on the latter, the lecture critiques God's traits of omniscience and omnipotence, posing logical dilemmas. Additionally, the relationship between consciousness and the brain is explored. Ultimately, he concludes that God's existence fails to meet criteria of evidence and logic, inviting reflection on the implications of believing in a non-existent entity.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
In this Wednesday Night Live on 3 December 2025, philosopher Stefan Molyneux delves into the Mouse Utopia Experiment, or Universe 25, conducted by John B. Calhoun, exploring its implications on societal behaviors and psychological breakdowns. We examine the setup and outcomes of this study, where unlimited resources led to self-destructive behaviors among a mouse population. The discussion highlights the relationship between environment and mental health, urging caution in making direct comparisons to human society. We address the criticisms of Calhoun's methodology, the ethical concerns of using animals in experiments, and the relevance of these findings to contemporary issues like urban overcrowding and social isolation. The conversation encourages listeners to reflect on the necessity of promoting human excellence and combating isolation within our communities to avoid the pitfalls illustrated by the experiment.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

We explore the impact of biases on our reasoning and the importance of critiquing authority figures like parents. The conversation questions the reliability of knowledge, highlighting how narratives are influenced by power dynamics.I discuss the challenges posed by economic dependencies and social pressures on objectivity, as well as psychological barriers that hinder admitting errors. The episode invites listeners to reflect on their relationship with truth and engage with the complexities of bias and rational discourse.The listener's question:"Do humans, even, have the ability to think and philosophize with absolutely zero anthropomorphic bias? The more I discuss philosophy with AI the more of my own anthropomorphic bias I find in my own arguments. This can serve to invalidate or at the very least undermine much of our philosophical ideas."SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Philosopher Stefan Molyneux explores a challenging listener question about the relationship between God's omnipotence, omniscience, and the concept of free will. He begins by defining omniscience as God's complete knowledge of all events throughout time, which raises questions about human autonomy in light of divine foreknowledge. We delve into thought experiments on free will, highlighting the interplay between subconscious decision-making and moral agency. Using relatable examples, he argues that true free will exists in our ability to make moral choices aligned with our values. Transitioning to the divine perspective, he discusses how God's perfect nature means He cannot change His mind, ultimately reconciling the complexities of divine knowledge and human freedom. This exploration reveals important implications for our understanding of moral responsibility and the nature of God.The listener's question:"I believe you said (forgive me if you haven't) that God can't change his mind, therefore he is not omnipotent. This doesn't make sense to my personal experience. Why would I even want to change my mind if I were omniscient? Why would anyone want to change their mind if omniscient?"SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Stefan Molyneux explores the debate on corporal punishment, specifically spanking, within child-rearing practices. He examines the moral implications of using force against children compared to adults, arguing that while violence is morally unacceptable in adult interactions, society still permits spanking. Molyneux challenges the justification of corporal punishment by questioning the assumption that children are incapable of reason and drawing comparisons with mentally impaired individuals. He critiques the idea that spanking is a necessary preventive measure for worse behaviors, advocating instead for positive reinforcement models over negative consequences. This discussion highlights the detrimental effects of physical punishment on children's understanding of empathy and respect, ultimately calling for a reevaluation of disciplinary methods towards more compassionate approaches in parenting.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025
Philosopher Stefan Molyneux provides a philosophical exploration of morality, centering on the concept of universally preferable behavior (UPB) and its role in defining moral actions. He examines the immorality of actions such as theft and assault, arguing that they violate UPB's principles. Through a logical framework, the discussion distinguishes between moral and immoral actions, asserting that any action failing to be universally preferable cannot be deemed moral.Stefan highlights the asymmetry of force initiation, underscoring that coercion inherently contradicts moral behavior. The implications of advocating flawed moral theories are also explored, illustrating how these theories can lead to destructive real-world consequences. He emphasizes the importance of logical coherence in ethical theories and warns against self-contradictory moral claims, concluding that adherence to UPB is essential for a just society.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

1:16 how to vet for a wife
I'm blown away every time Stef eats while talking, for someone who complains about every little noise his guests make lol that is just objectively rude
this girl's family is fkd up. I'm only wondering why she's living there and not getting a place with her bf. I left the day of my 18th bday for a similar situation.
the movie he didn't remember the name of is "the case for Christ"
This was one hell of a novel. Thank you, Stefan.

welcome back
Have a great vacation, see you soon
Have a great vacation, see you soon
I knew you'd be back on the news. Don't feel bad, I signed up for Twitter again.
Excruciating. But boy did I learn a lot.
These kind of shows are of great interest to me. It was your comments regarding the Australian doctor and the dating agency that brought me to your podcast. Your observations and commentary are excellent. Thank you.
Ugh another anti-gun idiot, people like this live in a fantasy land where real danger doesn't exist. He'd believe in guns if things broke into his house and raped his wife, guaranteed. Fools.
Best show on earth. Changed my life for the better in dozens of ways. my family will forever be indebted to Stef.
For all that is good I am begging you. Break up.
Love is one good answer. That's why one would put up with BS. Let me write why I think it is. Mr. Molyneux was the greatest advocate/proponent/champion of reason and evidence. One person. The 1000000 people who listened on bigger platforms were like 1000000 lottery tickets. One of them might pick up the torch. Now that Mr. Molyneux has only, say, 25000 "lottery tickets" listening to him, there is something to be said about growing the audience back to 30000. Who's to say that the very next person to follow him isn't *the one*-- an even greater advocate for logic and reason. That said, there is only so much Stefan, you, or me to go around. Love takes effort. Save your core energy for yourself. Take care of number one.
So glad HEX got a mention. RICHARD HEART would be an amazing guest. Ethics seems like such a Big part of his project.
Thanks Stefan that was great, seriously really interesting and thought provoking. I look. forward to many more. Cheers Steve In France.
