Welcome the undisputed champions of the world. They won their battles a thousand years ago; then they shut down the championship.
How come?
Well, you see, these are particular kinds of fighters. They are not merely people; they are ideas — undisputed ideas that claimed victory over our minds without a fight. They are values taken for granted that they come in fashion now and then in a new robe even after reigning for centuries. They are concepts we live by yet declare “immoral” anyone who dares to challenge their livelihood.
Their claim over our minds has been uncontested for far too long.
But, what if we changed the rules? What if we pick a fight, not in the ring, rather an intellectual one that can help us become better at forming our philosophy of life?
Join Leopold Ajami and Ricardo Pinto from Novel Philosophy Academy in their quest to explore and challenge undisputed ideas by putting them and themselves on trial.
