Part 2: "Moral Development" with Dr. Jim McRae

Dr. James McRae is a professor of Philosophy and Religious Studies at Westminster College in Fulton, MO as well as the Dept. Chair. We discussed the four pillars of ethics, one of his focus areas; martial arts, he has 2 black belts; and a little about his journey from South Carolina.
Jim McRae was introduced to martial arts and philosophy while in undergraduate school. Environmental Ethics led him to Hawaii for his graduate work and Westminster to teach. HIs wife teaches history there. We didn't succeed in getting everything covered. Ethics has 4 pillars and he identifies mostly with the 'Virtues' folks. As a critical thinker, he does not affiliate with "isms" or live in political boxes. He's trying to revive a martial arts class and enjoys playing and recording his guitar and bass on Garage Band. He is also an Apple Teacher.
