The email is a discussion between Jeffrey E. and Moshe Hoffman about the top five questions for the social sciences that keep Moshe up at night. Moshe suggests considering the distribution of these things rather than the binary report of the individual, which he believes don't fit the facts. The focus of the email is on moral and political views, their origins, and why they have the features they do. The conversation emphasizes the importance of understanding how beliefs work, the impact of culture and context, and the significance of social sciences in addressing these questions.
