Mindful Expansion - How Nature/Nurture Shapes Our Reality

The nature vs. nurture debate has raged for centuries among those that study what it means to be human. Are we a blank slate (tabula rasa)? Or, do we come into this life with experience from our ancestors? How do these factors shape our reality? And, perhaps most important, what does this mean for free will? Please join us on Spirit of Life as we tackle these questions and more!

Mindful Expansion - What Defines Right and Wrong? Part 1

On this week’s Spirit of Life, Drs. Vicki Hunter and Michael Kelley discuss the essential question of what defines right and wrong. Is there an objective morality, or are ethics relative to culture? As Metaphysical Humanists, we have core values expressed in the 9 Principles of Belief that help guide us. It’s also important to remember to only control what one is entitled to control. While our discussion was unfortunately cut short due to technical difficulties, we will continue with part two on the next edition of Spirit of Life!

Mindful Expansion - What Defines Right and Wrong? Part 2

This week, Drs. Vicki Hunter and Michael Kelley continue on the topic of defining right and wrong. We continue our examination of ethics and morality by looking at how inherent bias can tint our view of reality and shape our view of what is right. It’s commonly said, “a little bit of knowledge can be a dangerous thing”, and we’ll focus on the importance of context and wider awareness in determining what is right. We’ll tackle questions such as "do the ends ever justify the means? Are there matters that are black and white, or is everything a shade of gray? And, how do our emotions affect our ethics?" Please join us on another thought provoking edition of Spirit of Life!
