Video Lecture: RMR Intro and Interview #1
Dear students,
Here is the link to the video lecture for RMR interview 1. In the lecture I give a few arguments that you need to understand. I'll reproduce one of them below so you see how to write them out (I won't do this again). Be sure to take good notes on the reasons I give for accepting each step.

Here's the argument:
From Relativism to Facism/Holocaust
1. If relativism is true, then all belief systems, ideologies, etc are of equal
value.
2. If all belief systems are of equal value, then everyone is permitted to make
up their own belief system and get others to buy into it in any way they want
to.
3. Hence, if relativism is true, then everyone is permitted to make up their
own belief system and get others to buy into it in any way they want to.
The other arguments I will present should be written like the above and you should ensure that you understand them well.
