Sam Harris - "Who Says Science has Nothing to Say About Morality?"

is a video of Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins discussing Harris's new book "The Moral Landscape". It's 1 hour and 17 minutes, so be ready for a lengthy lecture if you are looking to watch it.  Taped at The Sheldonian Theatre, University of Oxford, April 12th 2011.   I'll also link to , which is Sam Harris's TED Talk on the same subject, because it gets referred to.  I'd post a transcript of the book, The Moral Landscape, but I don't have one; here's the wiki.   I know what I think, but if someb

Some things that grind my gears.

I hate systems of entitlement.   - You are not entitled to free shit because you are poor or don't have a job. I'm fine with paid into unemployment insurance programs, but straight-up welfare programs create a budget imbalance. It also creates a problem because the individuals on welfare lose money for making money, for as soon as they no longer qualify for it, they lose that income.   - You are not entitled to being taken care of. It's a great sentiment, and it's fantastic if the plan can work.
