Michael Lewis’s podcast, Against the Rules, is a valuable contribution to our understanding of the roles, challenges, and importance of referees, umpires, mediators, and judges of all kind–people who are not playing the game or involved in the conflict but who, as third parties, help those who are play fairly and resolve disputes.
The first year’s episodes are engaging and entertaining in the ways we’ve come to expect from this master non-fiction story teller.
This site is devoted to organizing a lifetime of participation in the Great Conversation About Right and Wrong and to engaging others in that dialogue. I provide a structure for the different components of the discussion, which is both about the nature of the moral conversation and about the content.
I hope that the resources on this site and the contributions of others will help people in every human setting better understand and answer the moral questions that confront them in their interactions with and responsibilities toward others.
