10m · Published 05 Jul 22:21

Life is something that we value, but have you ever stopped to thing about why? Or what it is about life that you value?

In this episode, we explore different ways that we value life and different ways that such value can be expressed. As always, there is more nuance and deeper ways to delve into the topic, but hopefully the topics discussed in here get you to start thinking of your own ways that you value life.

Talk Mormon: An athiest and a Latter Day Saint talk about morality (and other stuff)

2h 10m · Published 26 Nov 06:30

Welcome to Talk Anything!

HTC1830, a Latter-Day Saint (AKA "Mormon") commenter on Reddit, wanted to discuss questions of faith and morality.


This is not meant to be a great debate between the experts, nor is it meant to be a battle of wills. This is a civil discussion between two people of different worldviews sharing their thoughts, personal experience, and beliefs. We are not official representatives in any capacity. 


Critical comments are welcome! Just be nice to each other.

This is Talk Anything. Let’s talk about how much you are in control of "you."

How to build an INVINCIBLE machine?

11m · Published 18 Jul 19:48

Is it possible to build an indestructible machine?

Mr. John explores the difficulties with creating something invincible and what the logical solutions would be. It may seem like a useless thought experiment, but it also has some important implications for our world as we know it.


Can you figure out why this matters? And can you figure out a different solution?




P.S. this isn't the end of the indestructible machine. I will try to post the advanced guide at some point (can't guarantee it will include animation. The art may be terrible, but it still took a lot of work).
