Stefan Basil Molyneux (/stɛˈfɑːn ˈmɑːlɪnjuː/; born 24 September 1966) is a Canadian philosopher, author, speaker, and host of Freedomain Radio. Molyneux's areas of focus include libertarian political philosophy, voluntaryism based on the strict application of the non-aggression principle, secular ethics, strong atheism, cryptocurrency (Bitcoin), history, non-violent parenting, and familial relationship issues. As an author, he has self-published eight non-fiction books and his essays have been published on libertarian websites such as LewRockwell.com and antiwar.com. He is a frequent public speaker at political and technology conferences, and has appeared on television, radio, and podcasts to discuss his views. On his own show, he's produced over 1500 videos and 2700 podcasts. Jeffrey Tucker of the Ludwig von Mises Institute described Molyneux as "one of the single most influential libertarian thinkers of our times".
Biography
Molyneux describes a family history that "is intensely bound up in wars". His father's family is from England and Ireland, part of the Molyneux aristocracy. Four of the men in his great-grandfather's generation died in World War I. His mother was born in 1937 to a Jewish family in Berlin, but later moved to Dresden along with other civilians during the escalation of World War II. Hearing planes approaching, she and many of her relatives fled the city, avoiding the Allied bombing of Dresden, but her mother remained and was killed in the firestorm that resulted. Tragically, one of Molyneux's paternal uncles was a pilot on the bombing raid that killed his grandmother.
Molyneux was born in Ireland, but spent time as a boy in England and Africa before settling in Canada. As a teenager, Molyneux was engrossed in computer programming, often spending free time in his school's computer lab. At 19, to earn money for school, he worked in Northern Canada as a gold panner and prospector. In university, Molyneux pursued a career in acting and writing. After attending the Glendon College of York University, where he was a member of Theatre Glendon and the Debating Society, he spent two years at the National Theatre School of Canada graduating in 1990. Molyneux received a B.A. in History from McGill University in 1991 and an M.A. in History from University of Toronto in 1993. According to Molyneux, he focused on the history of philosophy and his thesis analyzed "the political implications of the philosophies of Immanuel Kant, G.W.F. Hegel, Thomas Hobbes, and John Locke".
After graduation, he returned to his interest in programming. In early 1995, Stefan and his brother Hugh Molyneux founded Caribou Systems Corporation, a provider of environmental site management software headquartered in the Willowdale neighbourhood of Toronto. He held the position of Chief Technology Officer until the company was sold in 2000.
Molyneux's first fiction book Revolutions, set in late 19th century Russia, was completed in 1991 and published in 2002 by an American publisher after a decade-long search for one in Canada. In 2002, Molyneux graduated from the Humber School for Writers where he completed a fiction book The God Of Atheists. His play Seduction (adapted from Turgenev's Fathers and Sons) appeared on stage in Toronto. His co-written 1998 short film, After, has aired on CBC and WTN.

Freedomain Radio
In 2005, Molyneux began a podcast called Freedomain Radio ("FDR"), which became a Top 10 Finalist in the 2007 and 2008 Podcast Awards in the Education category. Shortly after starting the Freedomain Radio podcast, Molyneux opened a website under that name as a place to distribute his self-published books, host podcast archives, and act as a community for FDR listeners. Molyneux now releases most new FDR content via his YouTube channel, which as of June 2014 has over 1500 videos, 162,000 subscribers, and 33 million channel views contributing to the show's tagline - "The Largest and Most Popular Philosophical Conversation in the World". Audio versions of new FDR content continue to be published also in podcast form, of which there are now over 2700 produced. Molyneux releases all of his non-fiction books and spoken material free-of-charge and eschews typical methods of funding the show, such as online advertising revenue, instead preferring the immediate feedback he gets from direct listener donations, a choice that he believes inspires him to produce high quality content.
On the Freedomain Radio show, Molyneux conducts interviews and debates with notable guests including Noam Chomsky, anarcho-libertarian theorist Walter Block, Zeitgeist founder Peter Joseph, psychological development and addition specialist Gabor Maté, developmental psychologist Alison Gopnik, child psychologist Peter Gray, Socratic journalist Jan Helfeld, Harvard economics professor and Cato Institute fellow Jeffrey Miron, intellectual property attorney Stephan Kinsella, Austrian School economist Robert P. Murphy, and Divorce Corp director Joseph Sorge. FDR also includes single-topic videos, commentary on current events, technology, and movie reviews from Molyneux's philosophical viewpoint. There is also a weekly call-in show where listeners can ask philosophy questions or discuss personal issues. These call-in shows have occasionally been guest-hosted men's movement activist Warren Farrell and unschooling advocate Dayna Martin.
Public appearances
Molyneux is a frequent guest speaker at libertarian conferences and events. He delivered a keynote at the New Hampshire Liberty Forum in March 2009, where he presented his "Against Me" argument – a method of conducting a political debates by inviting opponents to admit that they advocate for direct initiation of force. He's spoken at Liberty Fest NYC in 2011, FreedomFest in Las Vegas in 2012, and PorcFest 2013 in Lancaster, New Hampshire. He has attended the Libertopia festival held in San Diego each year since 2010, and acted as master of ceremonies twice. Molyneux was emcee of LibertyFest West held in Odessa, Texas on February 11, 2012.
Molyneux has appeared on television, radio, and other podcasts to discuss his viewpoints and popular videos. He has been a commentator on RT television programs Adam vs The Man, The Keiser Report, and Breaking the Set. He's been interviewed by ReasonTV and The Alex Jones Show. Molyneux has been a frequent guest host of the Peter Schiff Show since 2012, and has been both a guest and guest host of The Corbett Report. He has appeared twice as a featured guest on the Joe Rogan Experience podcast.
In 2014, Molyneux debated drug legalization at Upper Canada College's World Affairs Conference. He also began a series of appearances advocating the use of Bitcoin for political change. He spoke at the Texas Bitcoin Conference, the Bitcoin Expo 2014 in Toronto, and The Next Web Conference in Amsterdam. He appeared at the International Conference on Men’s Issues June 2014 in Detroit.
Philosophical views
Dispute resolution organizations
Molyneux's 2005 essay The Stateless Society: An Examination of Alternatives, published by the libertarian website LewRockwell.com, introduced his concept of dispute resolution organizations ("DROs") which, in a stateless society, provide or coordinate services related to enforcing contracts and resolving disputes. DRO's would operate under a system of anarcho-capitalism (a type of libertarian anarchism), as a result of broad acceptance of the non-aggression principle ("NAP") and the discontinuation of the government which, by its nature, violates the NAP. In such a stateless society, DROs would coordinate services previously provided by governments related to private defense, insurance, and courts. He explored this idea further in his book Practical Anarchy.
Universally Preferable Behaviour
In his 2007 book Universally Preferable Behaviour: A Rational Proof for Secular Ethics, Molyneux describes his approach for evaluating the validity of moral theories using logic and empiricism, comparing it to the use of the scientific method to prove physical theories. He proposes that if any moral statement lacks internal consistency by having flawed or self-contradictory structure, or if it can be shown to conflict with the rules of logic, it can be dismissed without further examination. The moral statement is then investigated for external consistency, by confirming that it adheres to observable evidence and arrives at the correct result for cases generally accepted as immoral, such as rape, murder, and theft. "Universally preferable behaviours", then, are the actions of people that comply with the universal moral statements that are objectively derived in this process and should be considered binding among people.
In 2011, Molyneux was invited by Students for Liberty to give a webinar on Universally Preferable Behaviour, and took questions and feedback from the audience.
In 2012, libertarian philosopher David Gordon gave a critical examination of the book in The Mises Review, stating, "is arguments are often preposterously bad". Gordon documented what he sees as fundamental flaws in philosophical reasoning, though he did praise Molyneux's insights into external verification, agreeing that "f a theory cannot show that a rule that purported to make obligatory is ill-formed, the theory should be rejected." Molyneux and Gordon later exchanged responses to the points raised in the review but could not come to agreement on key issues, such as universality.
Parent-child relationships
Molyneux is morally and ethically opposed to coercive forms of child discipline, including corporal punishment (spanking), time-outs, grounding, and verbal abuse. In his view, children share the same universal natural right as adults have to be free from violence, and so the use of coercive force against them is a violation of the non-aggression principle. He advocates "peaceful parenting", which replaces discipline with preparation and reasoning.
In articles, blog posts, and his books On Truth and Real-Time Relationships, Moylneux explored his view that relationships between all individuals should be entirely voluntary, and that this also extends to familial relationships. He maintains that adult children whose parents or other birth family relations were abusive or neglectful should exercise their right to disassociate with them if they no longer feel affection or desire contact. To distinguish between family relationships chosen as adults (such as spousal relationships) and the family that people are born into, Molyneux refers to the childhood family as the "FOO", an acronym of "family of origin" (borrowed from academic psychology).
In 2008, the parents of an 18-year-old Freedomain Radio ("FDR") community member took complaints about these views to media outlets in the UK and Canada, claiming that Molyneux is the leader of a "therapy cult", after their son abruptly broke off all contact with the family ("deFOOed"). The son called-in to FDR in the weeks prior to ask about his veganism and his intense disgust towards people that eat meat or are cruel to animals. Molyneux quickly suggested that the source of this disgust was that son had grown up around someone in authority that was cruel to animals. The son confirmed this, describing memories of his father being verbally and physically cruel to the family cat, causing him to feel intimidated by the father, and then described his emotional detachment toward his mother and the rest of his family. The following month, the son left a note stating he no longer wanted contact and left home. A representative of the Cult Information Centre described the situation as "a worrying development", noting that cults often cut people off from their families. Molyneux provided evidence to the media that, of the 50,000 regular listeners, only about 20 FDR members had "deFOOed". Molyneux added: "If I advised a wife to leave an abusive husband, there would not be articles about how I am a cult leader."
Atheism
Molyneux advocates for strong atheism, maintaining that the existence of deities can be disproven through the application of reason, logic, and empiricism. He expresses one such disproof of deity concepts that are defined as both omniscient and omnipotent by drawing upon the analogy of a "square circle":
~ Stefan Molyneux, Against the Gods, page 39A square circle is an impossible entity, and therefore cannot exist. We do not have to hunt the entire universe from edge to edge to know that a square circle does not exist; it is not an act of will to accept that a square circle does not exist, it is simply a recognition of reality and the nature of existence.
Take any property or ethic of the Christian God – to just pick on one absurd anti-concept – and the contradictory nature is clear.
- 'That which exists must have been created, but God, who exists, was never created.'
- 'God is all-knowing and all-powerful, which are both impossible.'
- 'God punishes a man for actions which are predetermined.'
- 'God punishes rebellious angels, although their rebellion was completely predetermined.'
- 'God claims to be morally perfect, although God fails the test of most of his 10 Commandments.'
Philosophy instructor and atheism author Peter Boghossian wrote the foreword to Against the Gods. In it, he expressed his disappointment with modern academic philosophy's "limited expression, hampered inquiry, and an emphasis on issues that matter to almost nobody except the very, very few philosophers who study them". He praised Molyneux for going against this trend by providing arguments that are accessible and convincing to the masses.

Public intellectuals like Molyneux, unencumbered by rigid, culturally shifting rules and arbitrary intellectual boundaries of academic philosophy departments, are agents of real, profound change in a much larger, much more meaningful landscape.
