TrancecoachMolyneux tries to take down Gandhi, like he tried to take down Mandela a few days after he died. Here, he gets into some interesting topics (and others not so interesting), like this premise that Gandhi supposedly didn't base his ethics on logical reasoning. This appears to have some truth to it since much of Gandhi's thinking was of a different kind than what most had seen at the time.
In this article, however, Molyneux is himself found to be falling short of his rationalist aspirations. The author, David Gordon, knows (as did Gandhi) the difficulty -- indeed the impossibility -- of coming up with a 100% rationalist basis for morality/ethics.
If nothing else, the axioms upon which the ethics are based will necessarily be irrational -- not anti-reason -- but outside of reason.
DocDarmsays...2 minutes in and he's still asking for money. I didn't make it to the actual talk.
chingaleraGandhi might have had a fundamental problem with Mandela considering his stance on black folks in general-
Fausticlesays...Ya .. I know Gandhi wasn't that great. This guy also is a long winded douche. Him and his shitty fake accent.
