about moral injury. but i can happily tell you about burnout burnout is exhaustion emotional exhaustion the personalization and he was striving and probably wasn't in as a full human being like whatever the doctor was burned out and lost sense of accomplishment so you're just not accomplishing your work what you think you should be or or what you really should. just look like you want to jump in there and actually yeah i think one of the things that i feel like there is this either or like are you team for now or are you team moral injury and i don't think you get a break from anyone on this show i went to read your article and i think it's amazing and and gave i've looked at your work as well but there's this sense of like because moral injury now exists now doctors can stay mad and blame something else and say ok that's not easy it's the system so then i can just like be mad and unhappy until the system gets specs and that's that's where i come in because i feel like no matter how bad the system is eve

try to discover certain moral laws of nature. so the declaration of laws of nature and nature's god, it is referring to moral laws of nature, right? and if you remember, going back to one of the very first classes when we read john adam's diary, the young 21-year-old writing about the things he was learning as an under graduate at harvard college. what we learned is that in the universe, right, according to newton's laws that entities, things, physical things out there in nature, have an identity. and that identity is absolute. and noise having identity, it is covered by certain laws and cause and effect if is a much more difficult leap to go from discovering scientific laws of nature to discovering human, moral, laws of nature. but that was, at the deepist philosophical level. that was the quest. that was the search of 18th century moral philosophers including the founding fathers. and we 1993 that first paragraph, let me just back up and say that the phrase in the declaration and the laws of god and nature's god. now it is inte

person, to live up to your moral principles. that is, i think, the moral logic compelling american revolutionaries. to sum up, what does all of this mean? what is the ultimate meaning of the declaration of independence? i think it can be summed up in the words of abraham lincoln. who, in 1957, said, speaking of the declaration of independence, he wrote "i think the authors of that notable instrument meant to set up a standard maxim for a free society." i think that is exactly what the declaration is, a standard next -- maxim for a free society, which should be familiar to all and revered by all, constantly looked to, and although never perfectly attained, constantly approximated, and thereby constantly spreading and deepening its influence and augmenting the happiness and value of life to all people of all colors everywhere. i think that is what the declaration of independence does. it establishes a standard maxim for a free society by which we can judge tyranny. it turns out, not just the tyranny of george the third and the bri

that's where we were seeing the kinds of the new moral claims a new moral language being used it's certainly used. elsewhere we've we've seen it and britain and australia certainly and in other places in europe so it's something that certainly in the west has become more prominent recently a lot of the ideas go back and kind of are decades old but they nobody had heard of them virtually and now they're becoming more prominent with with people you know talking about micrograms sions even in mainstream media and safe spaces and all these these other new concepts well i can tell you that a russian era all sounds strange and russia's own version a country with i would say little restraint for verbal aggression russians take out their frustration on the very easily so some of us would rather deal with microaggression is than the macro aggressions that we encounter on an almost daily basis. from my vantage point things that you describe in the book they stem from human mandation rather than too much history am i wrong yeah i mean it sounds strange to a lot of american ears to i think these are sti

i don't think that's morally justified.ay of thinking in a prisoner as opposed to, you know, hanging them for being an evil person — works great — and that is totally consistent with the libertarian free will. this is a very unpopular view, but i'm a bit inclined to think that moral responsibility kind of comes in degrees — and a big part of the reason why it comes in degrees is because control comes in degrees. so, there's a sort of sliding scale of how much control we're exercising and degree of moral responsibility maybe kind of goes along with that. that's quite interesting — because in the dutch criminaljustice system — from what i understand, it's the only system where there is five degrees of moral responsibility when you commit a crime — it's not black and white — and the punishment is according to which level you are. that's really interesting, yeah, and i think the british criminal justice system does tend to see things in black and white, right? so, there's an insanity defence for murder, but it sets the bar pret

society over the course of time they create for themselves a legal system that authorizes it and a moral code that glorifies it here we are 2 over 49 years after going off the gold standard in 1971 which is a moral code and a legal system of its own it imposes a moral code upon the economic system in terms of honesty and terms of distribution of wealth but here we have a system that 49 years later has become rotten the institutions have melted and disintegrated and we have people like our own senator here in north carolina that senator richard burr who was caught not only dumping a whole bunch of shares $2000000.00 worth after he secret inside information about the coronavirus but it turns out it's even worse when senator richard burr not only engaged in obvious insider trading on the coronavirus after receiving intelligence reports on the looming pandemic but he also sold his townhouse to a farmer a lobbyist above market price for a tidy profit so here you have a guy who's supposed to be the legal system of the the moral code of the nation and congress and he was actually had these phar

as i suggested, no figure better symbolized moral conviction in wartime that abraham lincoln. not to worry. i am not going to convince you abraham lincoln shows up in casablanca. i know that he does not. his spirit is there. nothing illustrates this so clearly as the moment when rick's competitor asks if the cafe american and sam are for sale. respond? ick in the language of abraham lincoln, i don't buy or sell human beings. this line, perhaps more than any other reveals the ethical underpinning that signals rick's transformation, his willingness to take a moral stand. i think it is no accident that he uses the same kind of anti-slavery language being used by the office of war information and robert sherwood. it is very likely that the author of humphrey bogart's anti-slavery pronouncement was koch, a casablanca screenwriter. even though lincoln himself does not flash ritualistically across embodiesn, casablanca the moral urgency that was being used to get americans behind this new effort. this lincoln was once again, or at least in spirit, being .eimagined and reinterpreted i

my abstract morality — which is itself a pattern of information — will shape the decisions i make.which is, ultimately, a kind of pattern of information realised in the brain that allows us to model the world and ourselves in it. but what if our future already exists? in what way then are the choices we make ever truly free? the block universe is an idea in physics that developed pretty soon after einstein came up with his special theory of relativity — where he said that time and space have to be unified. you can't talk about three—dimensional space and one—dimensional time as though they're separate things. they're part of one four—dimensional space time. so, the block universe is a bit like... imagine space was only flat — only two—dimensional, and then the third dimension is time. so, think of a loaf of bread. the time axis is along the length of the loaf and space are the individual slices. the block universe says that it's notjust the present time that exists. the past hasn't gone and been forgotten — and the future hasn't yet to be decided. in the block universe, all times c

lincoln appeared frequently on screen in roles that accentuated his commitment to moral principles. in subtle ways, too, i think the movies in the late 1930s and '40s seemed to acknowledge some way or another americans were undertaking a fight against slavery. so i'd like to conclude my talk by revisiting an old and familiar film, perhaps one of the most iconic films in hollywood with this perspective in mind. it's not usually what we think about as a civil war movie. the film i have in mind is "casablanca." it appeared at the very end of 1942 and directed by a hungarian emigree. arriving in the united states in 1926 he embarked on a steady stream of movie making directing classics like "the charge of the light brigade" and "the adventures of robin hood." he also made two extremely unmemorable civil war films "the santa fe trail" and "virginia city." "santa fe trail" a poorly named movie if there ever was one since it had nothing to do with santa fe or a trail, it did show an historic jeb stuart played by errol flynn and bumbling george custer played by ronald reagan joining forces

but there is a moral paradox in these two responses. moral paradox plays itself out, has been playing itself out in ordinary times in the way we organize our economy and society. arrived at a time that we were deeply divided, ven withwere ri partisan rancor, and inequality that we have not seen really in close to a century. so in a way, we are morally unprepared for this crisis. we focus a lot on our logistical lack of prepared is, the lack of test kits, masks, ventilators, but we are also morally unprepared because we were so divided, because the inequalities had run so deep, the social bonds that hold us together as a society had become unraveled. the real question is how will we notmerged from this crisis, only in terms of gdp and the stock market and public health, but also in terms of the social bonds that constitute the common life that makes for a flourishing democratic society in which we really are, and can say with conviction, that we are all in it together. david: briefly if possible, do you have hope? have there been times i

previously, no one was really interested or invested in the moral implications of abortion. no one talked about abortion as a moral away, not in relation to it being a potential person. but he and others like him began to refer to abortion as infanticide, or prenatal infanticide, even murder. they emphasized their own education and specialization to argue that they were the people who were best in position to lobby the government to basically eradicate this practice. we talked previously about the development of the medical field and how it worked in tandem with delegitimizing midwives and doctors. this is part of that, because it is usually midwives and physicians of color who were most likely to perform abortions. it is not just about this moral thing, it is also suggesting that these other people should not be qualified to practice medicine, we are. we, american medical association ama members, are. as a result of this campaign, good, reputable doctors did not perform abortions unless it was absolutely necessary to protect the life of a woman. other than that, abortions w

some were atheists, some brought christian morality, some embraced concept of moral philosophy, someampioned a system that sought universal principles and others acknowledged human fal blt when confronting infinite contingencies. others were unabashed royalists. despite this, an overarching project emerged. one that entailed a buy paragraph tight ambition. and it was to do so effectively and efficiently to achieve marshall objectives while sparing costs and precious resources, especially manpower. the second goal was to wage war humanely and in a fashion that reflected the compassion, morality, rationality and dignity of the human race. french military officers of all ranks saw themselves as leaders in the military enlightenment and the french war archives are filled with memoranda that attest to their commitment to innovation and progress. many of them were considered military philosophers. who were dedicated to truth and to the moral tenet of making good war. this involved rationality, discipline, and civility as well as calling upon one's innate empathy and soeshability to conduct

you take that person and put it in a place like vietnam where everything you ever learned about a moral compass seems to be thrown out of the window there and so you don't you lose a sense of what's right and what's wrong in that that kind of environment and yeah you end up following orders but i still think there's that bit of humanity in you that says that this is it right in the court documents we kynge someone testify that they saw him firing into a crowd of civilians while saying i don't want to do this i don't want to do this so clearly he was struggling with it but the thing about war as we sing young people to fight these wars who don't have the wisdom that we gain as as as older people you know there's a reason there's not a bunch of 40 and 50 year olds fighting wars the entire marine corps 172000 people if you take the average age including all the 4 star generals in the marine corps the average age is still just over 20 years old that's how many young people at the bottom of that pyramid and now it at my age 45 looking back at a 19 year old kid that is a child and yet we give

yeah, jillian [jillian: why was the moral element added? what was the reason they had against abortion? >> it was more about, you know, sex being for procreation and that it should be within the confines of marriage. so it was less about the fact that this was a person and more about, well, this meant you were having, you know, immoral sex practices. yeah, mark? mark: were they a bunch of doctors that said we're the authority now? alicia: a bunch of physicians that organized themselves and said we're creating standards. we are -- it's not backed by the government, rather they kind of formed their own lobbying group that said we're defining the standards of professional medicine and we are going to kind of be gatekeepers for this practice to make sure that everyone meets these standards that we have a main line position on things and they basically become a lobbying group after that. other questions? ok. so you have dr. storer and other people putting force this kind of moral and educational campaign but another thing that's adding fuel to t

this looks like -- to modernize -- a broad moral principle. it is a compressed argument of political philosophy. we are going to see this again with the declaration. to modernize, because we are not instepped in -- steeped political philosophy as the founders were, we tend to think of these as broad moral arguments. as tightlynderstood compressed arguments of political philosophy. all men are created equal, there are no kings. this is what i am going to call jefferson's equality. there are no kings, but are there slaves? yes, of course. tells yous equality there is no person entitled to demand your obedience by birth, but slaves do exist. jefferson owned several hundred. you freedders did and your slaves when you died. jefferson did not even do that. he freed a small number on his death and those were actually his children. equalityis idea of that there are no kings, not the idea that there are no slaves. slavery is not inconsistent with jefferson's equality. that only tells you people are born equal. they are born equal but they might not sta

moral sensibilities are not static they develop and deepen over time a general moral progress is very slow. part of the study of history involves the training of the imagination. learning to seize political actors as speaking and acting in their own times rather than hours and learning to see our heroes as an all too human mixture of admirable and other admirable qualities. people like us who may like us be constrained by circumstance beyond their control. and continuing here, the ambulances regarding slavery built into the structure of the constitution were almost unavoidable in the short term . in order to achieveeffective political union of the nation . what we need to understand is how the original compromise no longer became acceptable to increasing numbers of americans, especially in one part of the union and why slavery ubiquitous institution in human history came to be seen not merely as an unfortunate evil as a simple impediment to human progress, a stain upon the whole nation. we live today on the other side of the great transformation in moral sensibility . a transformation

so this looks like to modernize a broad moral principle maybe. it's a very compressed argument of political philosophy. we're going to see this again with the declaration so modernize because we're not as steeped in enlightenment as the drafters were, we tend to think of these things as broad moral principles. they're actually and they were understood at the time tightly compressed arguments of political philosophy. so all men are created equal, there are no kings. this is what i'm going to call for shorthanded jefferson's equality. there are no kings. but are there slaves? well, yes, of course there are. jefferson's equality tells you in sort of a literal sense kings don't exist. there is no such person as a king who is entitled by birth to demand obedience. but, of course, right, slaves do exist. jefferson owns several hundred. the other founders did too. by the standards of the age, you were a progressive if you freed your slaves when you died. jefferson didn't do that. he freed a small number of slaves on his death and those ones were actuall

in different directions politically i'm trying to understand i know that many people look at this moral responsibility in a national responsibility to democracy to bring in as many as possible but it raises the question of conflicting interests. yes definitely and i think there needs to be more conversation among them there's a huge chasm chasm right now within the democratic party and so i think what you're seeing is these 2 different sides warring. you know you have the progressive side and the moderate side and i really think just more open in basic conversation there really needs to be kind of a negotiation among those groups not just within democratic party politics but i think that larger conversations among young folks and older folks so that you know people can come to the table both sides understand what issues are important to them and then coming to a compromise as people as citizens of the united states to you know really create a vision to move really creative vision that i think makes sense for both sides right now ted i think you have a different take on some of this both

the whole notion of morality, that was my fourth one, these are moral people. i don't know if you've noticed. nobody talks about virtue anymore because the left has always been a little down on virtue as being preachy and judgmental and so forth. may i just observed, it's very embarrassing for conservatives to talk about the importance of virtue and character these days? i'm not going to get into an argument about any national leadership. [laughing] oranges going to observe that if you said, well, -- i'm just going -- what you really need in a political figure, starting out before anything else, is character. because everything ultimately stems from character. character is destiny. apart from that you want something you can hold it to your kids. there's that conversation completely silent and it will continue to be silent for the indefinite future. guess what? madison says the idea that a free people can exist without virtue in the people is a a chimerical idea, and it is. the united states, our communities don't function in the absence of a strong sense of vir

and the cost of war in its economic, moral, physical, and emotional terms. it was also practical and technical. military, aiming to achieve tactics, drill, and medicine. these dialogues and debates were not bound by the chambers in versailles, nor where they confined to the army, the navy, and their administration's. they engaged a far greater public. the public intellectuals of the day, the elite, theorists, poets, historians, doctors, mathematicians, and more. they were vital for members of the aristocracy, whose justification of socio-economic -- socioeconomic folk of france marched off to war and sheltered the -- the wars were arenas of national concern. the military enlightenment was part of a broader phenomena of enlightenment, engaging in the same narrative and embracing philosophy to make war reflective of a new age. philosophically and politically, participants brought a wide range of perspectives. some are atheists. some were deists. some championed universal principles, while others acknowledged human fallibility, when confronting infinite conting

earlier today i talked with an expert about something called moral injury.s something that happens when a soldier see something that conflicts with his moral beliefs and health care workers could face psychological harm from their decisions. >> pace is relentless, you are dealing with an unseen enemy because you don't know how, you might get it, and know. and you are dealing with a system that is on overload. so, i think one of the things that is helpful is to give people, even a few minutes, when those kinds of things happen, those devastating things, like they lose someone or they have to take someone off the ventilator. just give the healthcare team a minute or two of just silence, and time to take it in. because one of the things that happens with moral injury is that you lose touch with your self. you are so busy doing other things that you are not paying attention to the grief or inner voice inside you. and if you lose touch with that, it's really hard to recover from moral injury. >> the doctor says the emotional harm doctors and nurses and overwhelme

[laughter] but back jefferson's equality. it is not the idea there are no slaves. slavery is not in

and also as i said in the introduction he did not divorce his journalism from his political and moral positions which i think is important what i think what stone understood and what i think what i think. far too few journalists do is that there is no such thing as neutral objective journalism you're either an opponent of power or a servant of power and he knew which side he was on you know he writes the search for meaning is very satisfying it's very pleasant but it can be very far from the truth. you have to have the courage to call attention to what doesn't fit even though the readers are going to say well 2 weeks ago you said this so you did and maybe you were wrong then are partly wrong but anyway you've just seen something that doesn't fit and it's your job to report it otherwise you're just a prisoner of your own preconceptions one of the reasons i report all my books is that i always go out with preconceptions or assumptions that almost always get shattered even when i did my book on the christian right come out of harvard divinity school liberal left wing presbyterian with a

reminded us that "the moral -- the ark of the moral universe is long but it bends towards justice." the fight for justice is what our campaign has been about. the fight for justice is what our movement remains about. today i congratulate joe biden, a very decent man who i will work with to move our progressive ideas forward. on a practical note, let me also say this. i will stay on the ballot in all the states and continue to gather delegates while vice president biden will be the nominee. tomust continue working assemble as many delegates as possible at the democratic convention where we will be able to exert significant influence over the party's platform and other functions. then together, standing united, we will go forward to defeat donald trump, the most dangerous president in modern american history. and we will fight to elect strong progressives at every level of government from congress to the school board. as i hope all of you know, this race has never been about me. i ran for the presidency because i believed as a president i could accelerate and institutionalize the prog

it's called the more a -- moral equivalence of war. the argument is looking back on the civil war it was the most horrible episode in american history with many lives lost than all the rest of our wars combined. the personal courage, the sense of the greater good, the political leadership of abraham lincoln and his associates, the better part of human character and the american ideals were also revoked by the worst event in our history. he said the permanent struggle in the united states was to found a moral equivalent of war and to enlist these better parts of individual behavior without having a natural war. through the history of the lessons that time it's often been militarily challenges themselves were people have been able to say yes or i would argue public health challenges. when i was a little kid it was the time of the polio faxing and there was a sense you had to stay home and not go swimming in the summer because you had to endure the limits on your own personal freedom for the greater good. in the public health was a moral
