In this episode, Ben Brophy and I discuss forgiveness. We talk about what counts as an act of forgiveness, about the part played by the person who's being forgiven, about whether forgiveness is a matter of justice or charity, about its relation to nearby concepts like grace and mercy and forbearance, about the role religion might have played in shaping its ordinary usage, and more. In short, we do some philosophy! I hope you enjoy it...
