About this listen
Chris and Christian discuss the meaning of life. Can life be meaningful even if God doesn’t exist, or even if there’s no afterlife? What does it even mean to lead a meaningful life? Is it just about being emotionally engaged with your life projects? Or is it about pursuing objectively valuable goals such as beauty, justice, or knowledge? And what, concretely, should we do when we find our lives meaningless?
