The Ethics of Desire | Ep 09 - Is moral objectivity possible?
<p><strong>SUMMARY OF THE EPISODE </strong></p><br /><p>In this episode, Carlos Santos explores the complex relationship between desire, morality, and emotions. He argues that while moral values are non-physical, they are still objective and real.</p><br /><p>Santos emphasizes the importance of emotions as perceptions that guide our understanding of moral values and the necessity of reasoning to evaluate these emotions. He discusses the characteristics of moral values, their dependence on human experience, and how desires can lead us to recognize objective goods.</p><br /><p>The conversation concludes with a transition to exploring how morality connects to living a meaningful life in future discussions.</p><br /><p> </p><br /><p><strong>COMPANION GUIDE</strong></p><br /><p><a href=" https://carlossantosaguirre.com/companion-guide-subscription " target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer"> https://carlossantosaguirre.com/companion-guide-subscription</a></p><br /><p><strong> </strong></p><br /><p><strong>TIMESTAMPS</strong></p><br /><p><strong> </strong></p><p>00:00 Recap</p><p>04:07 Emotions as portals to moral values</p><p>08:04 Moral reasoning on the objects of our emotions</p><p>15:49 People who disobey these values</p><p>18:41 Main answer: Are the values objective or subjective?</p><p>24:10 Connection with part 2 of the Ethics of desire</p><p><strong> </strong></p><br /><p><strong> SOCIAL MEDIA AND WEBSITE </strong></p><br /><p> </p><p>Linktree: <a href="https://linktr.ee/carlossantosaguirre" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://linktr.ee/carlossantosaguirre</a></p><p>Instagram: <a href="https://www.instagram.com/_carlosantos_/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.instagram.com/_carlosantos_/</a></p><p>Facebook: <a href="https://www.facebook.com/carloslsantoslaguirre/" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.facebook.com/carloslsantoslaguirre/</a></p><p>VideoPodcast: <a href="https://youtube.com/@carlossantosEN?sub_confirmation=1" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://youtube.com/@carlossantosEN?sub_confirmation=1</a> </p><p>SpanishYouTube Channel (exclusive context – speaking engagements in Hispanic circles):<a href="https://www.youtube.com/@carlossantosES?sub_confirmation=1" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.youtube.com/@carlossantosES?sub_confirmation=1</a> </p><p>Website(subscribe to the newsletter to get updated on special news): <a href="http://www.carlossantosaguirre.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">www.carlossantosaguirre.com</a></p><p> </p><p> </p><br /><p><strong>GET MYBOOK</strong> (Academic)</p><br /><p> </p><p>Amor y Resentimiento: Una respuesta a los ataques deNietzsche contra el cristianismo (Spanish Edition) - Available on Amazon in Kindle and Paperback:</p><p> </p><p><a href="https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Carlos-Santos-Aguirre/dp/B0BMSKNDJ7/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.amazon.com/-/es/Carlos-Santos-Aguirre/dp/B0BMSKNDJ7/ref=tmm_pap_swatch_0?_encoding=UTF8&qid=&sr=</a></p><p> </p><br /><p><strong>COLLABORATION/SPONSORSHIPINQUIRIES</strong></p><br /><p> </p><p><a href="mailto:info@carlossantosaguirre.com" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">info@carlossantosaguirre.com</a></p><p> </p><br /><p><strong>SUPPORT CARLOS TO NOT BE A POOR PHILOSOPHER</strong></p><br /><p> </p><p>PayPal: <a href="https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VDTRM5VLC87VC" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=VDTRM5VLC87VC</a></p><p>Donation witha debit card: <a href="https://carlossantosaguirre.com/checkout/donate?donatePageId=6391bde9ea3d301c457ecd09" target="_blank" rel="ugc noopener noreferrer">https://carlossantosaguirre.com/checkout/donate?donatePageId=6391bde9ea3d301c457ecd09</a></p><p> </p><p> </p><br /><p>#desire #ethics #morality #meaning #conflict #phil
