Listen "Ep. 133: Everything Is Permitted"
Episode Synopsis
Ivan, the most brilliant and also the most tormented of the brothers in Dotoevsky's "Brothers Karamazov," saw something that few others could see: if there is no immortal soul and no God, then everything is permitted. It's something that Nietzsche realized as well, and it drove him mad. How did Dotoevsky avoid the same fate—and how can we? Spencer Klavan picks up these questions in the second installment of this series. -- Stop throwing your tea into the harbor, and start celebrating America's tea heritage with Gold River Trading Co.'s specialty blends.
