Description

In this episode, we contrast the views of Aquinas and Freud on conscience, guilt and moral responsibility. We explore the three key aspects of Aquinas's understanding of conscience: Ratio, Synderysis and Conscientia. We also look at the three concepts that Freud believes result in our experience of conscience and importantly guilt. These are the Id, the Ego and the Super-Ego. We end the episode with a debate on falsifiability. Enjoy!
