But it isn’t just relationships with others that are affected; leaving religion also has profound impacts on identity.

Is the moral theory of utilitarianism an adequate underpinning of human rights, or are rights justified by ascriptions of human dignity or autonomy? Or something else?

Rational RealmCan We Be Free-Willing Robots?In this episode, Leslie Allan explores whether human beings can really have free will in a universe in which every thought and action is governed by universal physical laws of nature. The view that human beings do not exercise free will appears for many to be a consequence of a modern, scientific view of the universe and humankind's place in it. It is a view that is popular among humanists, atheists and other freethinkers. Leslie Allan endeavours to show how this myth is based on some fundamental errors of reasoning and an insufficient attention to how 'free will' language...2021-11-201h 15

Rational RealmThe Hidden Toll of Religious TraumaMental health professionals are increasingly noticing a pattern of symptoms in both those who have left religion and those who are still practicing that mirror the symptoms of Post Traumatic Stress Disorder. In 2011, Dr. Marlene Winell coined the term 'Religious Trauma Syndrome' (RTS) to give a name to the unique trauma that many face from their experiences with religion. Like PTSD, RTS symptoms sometimes fly under the radar or are attributed to other causes, such as major depression or an anxiety disorder. In this podcast, Caroline Winzenried will outline how to identify RTS and the hidden toll that it...2021-06-3020 min

Rational RealmThe Good Life: Different PerspectivesIn this episode, Akiva Quinn and Usha Sista examine the notion of "The Good Life" from various viewpoints. We all want our lives to actualise some conception of "The Good Life" where this notion will generally include fulfilment, happiness or wellbeing for ourselves, our family, friends and other people. In addition, for many, to live the good life also entails living with concern for both self and others based on moral and practical or prudential considerations. Is the good life about experiencing lasting pleasure and minimizing suffering as Hedonism suggests? In contrast, Altruism proposes we should do "the most...2020-11-0947 min

Rational RealmDemocracy in Our Time: Worth Defending? – Part 2Recently, there has been a plethora of books and articles on the topic of democracy's demise. We find authors who point to a number of countries that are moving towards authoritarian rule (such as America, Hungary, Turkey and the Philippines), while others argue that, despite these exceptions, democracy is alive and well. In particular, Dr Vince Giuca will examine two important threats to democracy. First, populism, where (authoritarian) leaders claim to represent the people and their interests and, yet, introduce anti-pluralistic and anti-liberal measures. Second, digital technology, which is becoming all too pervasive in our lives and has significant...2020-07-2251 min

Dr Vince Giuca will open this discussion by asking what is 'democracy', teasing out the implications of 'rule of the people' — an amorphous concept for some who ask whether it is meaningless and should be abandoned altogether. This will be followed with consideration of where democracy is today with special attention to American politics in the age of Trumpism.2020-06-1657 min
