Philosophy has a way of intimidating or putting off people for being too ethereal, abstract, or impractical. But today, Dr. Peter Kreeft joins Ben Eriksen to challenge these judgments by discussing his new book “What Would Socrates Say? An Introduction to Philosophy by the Socratic Method.” This work is unlike every other introduction to philosophy; it is not only written in dialogue, but also teaches the reader how to think, not what to think.
In this episode, Dr. Kreeft and Ben discuss the Socratic method, the importance of searching for the truth rather than winning arguments, skepticism, artificial intelligence, and so much more. This engaging conversation demonstrates the importance of philosophy in our everyday lives.
