Lessons from ”The Slap‪”‬ Open to Truth

    • Religion & Spirituality

We're a number of weeks out from the shocking slap that occurred on the stage of the Oscars.  Far from focusing on the celebrity drama of it all, the incident raises a number of important legal, ethical, and cultural questions.  Is there any kind of speech worth of a physical, violent reaction? How much does the setting matter? What if someone other than Will Smith had done this - how much should that matter for our legal and ethical decisions? Is there a limit to comedy and what is the role of comedy in a good society?  Enjoy the conversation and stay curious!
