Episode description
John Vervaeke is a Professor of Cognitive Science and Psychology at the University of Toronto. He has an excellent youtube channel and I would particularly recommend his series "Awakening from the Meaning Crisis".

The main topic of this conversation is whether the whole of existence has a purpose, or whether purpose is only realized at local levels. We mention Plato, Paul Vanderklay, JP Marceau, Pope Francis, Paul Anleitner, Spinoza, the fine tuning argument, Aristotle.
