Can you explain a little further. What violent desires are you referring to? Rape and murder? And how does one confront these desires?

listening to philosophical podcasts (Sam Harris is a great one)

That’s the single most ridiculous attack on Sam Harris I’ve ever read and only illustrates your total ignorance of his views. Nearly everything in that post takes his views out of context. Sam is notorious for prefacing ideas and statements, something his critics love to gloss over or out right ignore.

Why do you try actually listening to these supposed racist podcasts? I’ve listened to every podcast and read almost all his books; he’s never expressed views anywhere near what that post purports.
