Here, philosophers wittily and expertly uncover amazing
philosophical insights from the endlessly fascinating TV show, It's
Always Sunny in Philadelphia. Greg Littmann shows how the values of
the gang are the same as those of Homeric heroes. Christopher
Ketcham argues that the Church should make Charlie a saint, partly
because It's Always Sunny is "all about free will." Russ Hamer
shows how closely the gang's activities comply with the scientific
method. Kyle Alkema and Adam Barkman analyze the way the gang
perceives happiness and how they try to get it. Charlotte Knowles
considers whether Heidegger would consider members of the gang
authentic or inauthentic -- and concludes that they're a bit of
both. Skyler King examines the morality of the gang's behavior by
the standard of how they respond to extreme suffering. Ethan
Chambers agrees that each of the five central characters is a
terrible person, but argues that they are not truly to blame for
their actions. Fenner Tanswell demonstrates that many of the gang's
wrong actions result not from immoral motives but from illogical
thinking. And Robert Arp compiles a hilarious list of historical
examples where people acted even more foolishly than the
Philadelphia Five.
