¡Hola, queridos Lunares de Crónicas Lunares di Sun! Hoy vamos a hablar de un señor que vivió casi un siglo,pensó muchísimo, escribió aún más y no tuvo miedo de decir lo que pensaba… aunque a veces eso le costara problemas. Vamos a conocer a Bertrand Russell y a uno de sus libros más populares y accesibles: Historia de la filosofíaoccidental. Si la palabra “filosofía” te suena un poco intimidante o teimaginas textos densos y difíciles… ¡tranquilo! Hoy te presento a Russell y a su libro de una forma sencilla, como si estuviéramos charlando en una tardetranquila con una taza de té.
L'héritage de Nuremberg traverse l'Atlantique. Aux États-Unis, les militants des droits civiques invoquent les crimes contre l'humanité pour dénoncer le racisme. Pendant la guerre du Vietnam, des tribunaux d'opinion, comme celui de Bertrand Russell reprennent cet esprit de justice universelle. Sans sanction, mais avec une portée symbolique puissante. Avec Guillaume Mouralis, historien et auteur de Le moment Nuremberg. Le procès international, les lawyers et la question raciale paru aux Presses de Sciences Po
Mike says Bertrand Russell nailed it when he observed that "most people would rather die than think." Trend Letter's Martin Straith takes the pulse of sentiment on oil, gold, and silver.

"Analysis of Mind" is a concise exploration of the philosophy of mind by the influential 20th-century analytic philosopher Bertrand Russell. This work delves into the complexities of human thought and consciousness, offering insights that remain relevant in today's discussions about the nature of the mind and the intersection of philosophy and psychology. Russell's clear and logical approach invites listeners to reflect on enduring questions about perception, knowledge, and the essence of thought. Engaging with this text not only enriches our understanding of philosophical discourse but also encourages critical thinking about our own mental processes, making it a timeless addition to the canon of philosophical literature.
Liza Libes is a writer and literary critic at Pens and Poison. Her parents escaped the Soviet Union. She went to Columbia. She found that Columbia's English Department had replaced literature with Marxist theory, postcolonial studies, and critical theory. She's been pushing back ever since. We talked about: the teachers who made us both writers; reading Wallace Stevens's The Snowman — out loud, in full — and the seventh grade class that made Liza stand in the snow for an hour to understand it; Hemingway, Ezra Pound, and the fascism problem; what happened to Columbia's English Department and why it matters for publishing; why Marxism is fundamentally an ideology of resentment (Bertrand Russell said it 100 years ago); the novel Yesteryear and what it reveals about contemporary literary self-righteousness; why writing characters who disagree with you is the whole point; the Emily Wilson translation of the Odyssey and what "a complicated man" does to Odysseus's character; and Christopher Nolan's Odyssey film — specifically the Cyclops scene he cut, why it was the scene that defined Odysseus, and why its absence drains the heroism from the entire story.

Bertrand Russell's "Our Knowledge of the External World" explores the intricate relationship between sensory data and fundamental concepts in physics, such as space, time, and matter. Delivered through the Lowell Lectures in 1914, Russell employs logical analysis to examine how these ideas can bring clarity to the philosophy of physics, much like they did for mathematics in the late nineteenth century. This work invites listeners to engage with profound questions about the nature of reality and the limits of human understanding. Its enduring relevance lies in its challenge to think critically about the foundations of knowledge, making it a compelling listen for anyone interested in the intersections of philosophy and science.

In this week's Book Club podcast, I'm joined by the theoretical physicist and writer Carlo Rovelli to discuss his new book 85 Seconds to Midnight: A Physicist's Argument Against Rearmament, where in imitation of Einstein and Bertrand Russell, he uses his platform as a public intellectual to speak against the logic of nuclear escalation. He tells me what the Nazis got right and the US got wrong in the later years of the Second World War, why physicists have a bad conscience about the bomb – and why the threat to civilisation has never been greater.Produced by Oscar Edmondson.Edited by Ed Parker.

Un punto de inflexión en la Ciencia ficción y en el arte en general fue la película 2001, dirigida por Kubrick. Hablaremos de ella en su momento, pero en este programa nos centramos en el libro publicado con la firma del importante escritor Arthur C. Clarke. No es exactamente una novelización del film, sino más bien parte del proceso creativo que llevó la historia a la gran pantalla. Así como a diversas continuaciones de la trama en novelas y a la secuela en cine dirigida por Peter Hymes, "2010. Odisea dos". Os lo contamos junto con un montón de datos interesantes.

Filosofía de la ciencia en serio: las tres grietas del conocimiento, con dos filósofos de la ciencia. ¿Por qué funciona la ciencia si no es del todo segura?En 1610 Galileo apuntó su telescopio al cielo y no actualizó el mapa heredado: lo rompió. Mucha gente prefirió no mirar. Este episodio usa ese gesto como metáfora: las preguntas de la filosofía de la ciencia son las grietas de nuestro mapa del mundo.Recorremos tres grietas del método científico:La inducción no garantiza el futuro: David Hume y el pavo de Bertrand Russell.Los hechos no se ordenan solos: Henri Poincaré ("una pila de piedras no es una casa").El observador altera lo observado: Werner Heisenberg.Y la gran pregunta: si el mapa tiene grietas, ¿por qué funciona la ciencia?Para responder entrevisto a dos filósofos de la ciencia: Alfredo Marcos (catedrático en la Universidad de Valladolid) y María de Paz (Universidad de Sevilla). Les hago las mismas tres preguntas —qué estudia la filosofía de la ciencia, cuándo nace como disciplina y tres libros para empezar— y luego exploramos zonas poco tratadas: los sesgos de género y el eurocentrismo en la ciencia, los científicos que también filosofaron (Newton, Poincaré, Heisenberg) y el sociólogo Robert Merton con su "etos" de la ciencia (las normas CUDOS).Una introducción rigurosa y para todos los públicos a la metaciencia y la epistemología, con Kuhn, Popper, Feyerabend, Duhem y Hacking de fondo.Invitados:Alfredo Marcos — Catedrático de Filosofía de la Ciencia, Universidad de Valladolid.

Every AI breakthrough you've heard of, ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, traces back to a single 1943 paper, and its co-author was a homeless teenage runaway who never finished high school. Walter Pitts taught himself Greek, Latin, and the foundations of modern logic in a Detroit public library, corrected Bertrand Russell's math by letter at age 12, and was taken in by a 45 year old scientist who treated him like a son. He helped found the architecture behind every neural network in existence at 19, and then a single lie destroyed every relationship he had, sending him into a 17 year drinking spiral that ended in a Cambridge boarding house in 1969. In this solo episode, I tell the full story of how Pitts' partnership with neurophysiologist Warren McCulloch produced the unbroken ancestor of the perceptron, backpropagation, and the transformer architecture behind today's large language models, and what happened when a fabricated accusation cut him off from every mentor he had. I lay out the specific conditions, free public libraries, mentors willing to take prodigies seriously, intellectual communities small enough to recognize raw talent, that made a mind like his possible, why those conditions have been dismantled, and what I call the cognitive class war: the widening gap between the small number of people capable of directing artificial intelligence and everyone else whose future it will shape. *Reduce your risk of Alzheimer's with my science-backed protocol for women 30+:*https://go.neuroathletics.com.au/youtube-sales-page Subscribe to The Neuro Experience for evidence-based conversations at the intersection of brain science, longevity, and performance. _____ *TOPICS DISCUSSED*(00:00:00) Intro: The 1943 Paper Behind Every AI Model Today (00:02:53) Walter Pitts Childhood in Depression-Era Detroit (00:03:17) Hiding From Bullies, He Finds Principia Mathematica (00:03:40) A 12-Year-Old Writes to Correct Bertrand Russell (00:06:35) Walter Pitts Meets Warren McCulloch in 1942 (00:08:32) Inside the 1943 Paper That Founded Neural Networks (00:11:17) From the Perceptron to ChatGPT and Claude (00:13:43) Norbert Wiener, MIT, and the Macy Conferences (00:15:05) The 1952 Lie That Destroyed Walter Pitts (00:19:11) Pitts Dies Alone in a Boarding House, 1969 (00:21:46) Five Conditions That Made a Genius Possible (00:24:16) Why Those Conditions No Longer Exist Today (00:33:53) The Cognitive Class War and Who Will Govern AI _______ *Thank you to our sponsors*Cure Hydration: https://www.curehydration.com/ Use code NEURO for 20% offJones Road Beauty: https://www.jonesroadbeauty.com Use code NEURO for a free gift with your orderMomentum: https://momentumshake.com/neuro Get a free Welcome Kit + Travel Collection ($70 value)IQ Bar: https://www.eatiqbar.com/ Text NEURO to 64000 for 20% off plus free shipping _______ I'm Louisa Nicola - clinical neurophysiologist - Alzheimer's prevention specialist - founder of Neuro Athletics.

Gwendolyn Dolske and Rudy Salo welcome Casey Berman: former attorney, founder of Leave Law Behind (the leading coaching program helping attorneys transition into non-legal careers), multipreneur, strategy consultant, speaker, and author, for a discussion about work, identity, happiness, and the courage it takes to choose a different life. Casey knows this territory from the inside. He lived it. And he has spent years helping thousands of attorneys find what he calls their Unique Genius, the specific intersection of talent and joy that, when aligned with their work, produces not just professional success but the deeper contentment that a career in law, for many, was never able to provide. What we explore in this episode: The reality of life inside the legal profession, the hours, the pace, the stress, the culture, and why so many attorneys feel trapped even when their career looks successful from the outside What you can actually do with a law degree that doesn't involve practicing law, and why the answer is far broader and more interesting than most law students are ever told: consulting, compliance, legal technology, entrepreneurship, writing, business development, policy, education, coaching, and more than 100 documented alternatives The specific steps Casey recommends for assessing whether your unhappiness is situational (the wrong firm, the wrong practice area, the wrong city) or fundamental (the wrong career entirely), and why getting that diagnosis right is the most important first step How to get feedback from the people in your life, family, friends, colleagues, mentors, to identify what you are genuinely good at, what lights you up, and where your skills create value outside a courtroom or a contract review Bertrand Russell and The Conquest of Happiness, and why Russell's argument that most human unhappiness is self-generated and rooted in the wrong relationship to work maps precisely onto what Casey has observed in the legal profession for over a decade What Russell wrote about the sunk cost of identity: why we must be willing to let go of what we have invested in, emotionally, financially, intellectually, when it's clear it is not our talent or our strength, and why it is not only acceptable but necessary to grieve the self you thought you would be Rudy's perspective as a lawyer who stayed, and his advice for law students: do not let go of what makes you happy, because the time you spend on those things (screenwriting, acting, podcasting) will make you a better lawyer, not a worse one Casey's thoughts on the role of AI in law, what this means for the profession and those going into law. The philosophy of the examined career: what Socrates, Russell, and Casey Berman all agree on about the relationship between self-knowledge, honest feedback, and the possibility of genuine happiness in your work Books Mentioned in this episode (with Amazon Affiliate link): The Conquest of Happiness by Bertrand Russell The Million Dollar One Person Business by Elaine Pofeldt The Ancient Art of Thinking For Yourself: The Power of Rhetoric in Polarized Times by Robin Reames Guest: Casey Berman: founder of Leave Law Behind, the leading coaching program helping attorneys identify and transition into fulfilling non-legal careers.

You keep telling yourself the space is coming.After the launch.After this quarter.After the next promotion.But somehow, it never arrives.In this episode, Fernanda explores why busyness has become one of leadership's most celebrated habits - and what it may be quietly costing you.Drawing on the work of Martin Hägglund, Bertrand Russell, and neuroscience research on the brain's Default Mode Network (DMN), this conversation challenges the assumption that more activity creates better leadership.Inside you'll discover:• Why busyness became a status symbol• What the Default Mode Network reveals about insight and creativity• Why strategic thinking requires more space than most leaders allow• Why vacations often fail to create lasting change• The leadership lesson hidden in the Japanese concept of ma• The question Martin Hägglund believes every leader should considerBecause your next breakthrough may have less to do with doing more.And more to do with what happens when you finally stop filling every available space.Your Next Steps:Watch the Free MasterclassIf success still feels heavier than it should… this masterclass will help you understand why.Watch The Rewired Method™ in action How we help women executives end burnout and build sustainable success in less than 90 days...I recorded a step-by-step training for you here: The Sustainable Success Plan for Executive Women LeadersExplore The Rewired Woman™https://therewiredwoman.com/Follow on InstagramConnect on LinkedInCorporate Partnerships & Leadership Programshttps://rewiredglobal.com/corporates/
Hoy traemos a Podcaliptus al gran Kike de "Mundo Gilipoy". Doctor en física teórica, no solo puede destruir el mundo con su rayo de neutrones, sino que encima ha escrito un libro sobre el ser humano. En él da respuesta desde el mayor rigor científico a lo que sabemos acerca de nosotros mismos como especie y sobre nuestro lugar en el universo.

W nowym odcinku wideokastu „Kultura na weekend” Janusz Wróblewski i reżyser Marcin Borchardt, twórca takich dokumentów jak „Beksińscy. Album wideofoniczny” oraz „Tony Halik. Tu byłem”. Rozmawiamy o tym, jak powstaje film dokumentalny, który potrafi ożywić archiwum filmowe i zamienić je w uniwersalną opowieść o sztuce i wolności. Głównym tematem jest awangarda polska i jej najwybitniejsi przedstawiciele: Franciszka oraz Stefan Themerson, o których Marcin Borchardt nakręcił swój najnowszy film „Moi Themersonowie”. Reżyser analizuje ich nowo odnaleziony film eksperymentalny z lat 30. pt. „Europa”, stawiając ich w jednym rzędzie z takimi postaciami jak Salvador Dalí czy Luis Buñuel, autor przełomowego dzieła sztuki awangardowej „Pies andaluzyjski”. Dowiecie się, dlaczego malarstwo Franciszki Themerson jest dla gościa równie poruszające co prace, które stworzyli Lucian Freud i Francis Bacon, oraz jak wyglądało ich życie po drugiej wojnie światowej w Londynie i Paryżu. To tam prowadzili wydawnictwo Gaberbocchus Press, publikując takie tytuły jak „Król Ubu” czy „Wykład profesora Mmaa”, książka, o której sam Bertrand Russell pisał, że jest równie istotna co „1984” George'a Orwella czy „Nowy wspaniały świat” Aldousa Huxleya. W rozmowie poruszamy także wątki historyczne, takie jak II wojna światowa, modernizm w sztuce oraz emigracja Polaków. Marcin Borchardt zdradza, jak dziś, korzystając z nowych technologii, można na nowo interpretować polski film sprzed dekad. Na koniec pytamy, jakie są jego plany filmowe i dlaczego dokument to dla niego nieustanne odkrywanie nieznanego. Dowiesz się z tego odcinka: – Jak reżyser filmu „Moi Themersonowie” pracuje z archiwalną taśmą, by zamienić stare dokumenty w emocjonujące, nowoczesne kino? – Co sprawiło, że Bertrand Russell zachwycił się polską prozą i porównywał ją do najważniejszych antyutopii Orwella i Huxleya? – Czy polski eksperyment filmowy z lat 30. był bardziej rewolucyjny od zachodnich klasyków? Oś czasu: 00:00 – Najciekawsze fragmenty 00:09:26 – „Europa”: Filmy Themersonów na tle zachodniej awangardy 00:15:40 – Malarstwo Franciszki w zestawieniu z Baconem i Freudem 00:21:12 – Gaberbocchus Press i wydawanie „Króla Ubu” 00:31:00 – Jasia Reichardt: przewodniczka po Themersonach 00:45:50 – Co łączy Beksińskich, Halika i Themersonów?
Bertrand Russell è un simbolo del pensiero libero e progressista del Novecento. È stato uno dei più grandi logici e filosofi del secolo, e ha vinto il premio Nobel per la letteratura nel 1950. Ha fondato una scuola alternativa per i bambini, e divulgato in maniera inimitabile la scienza e la filosofia. Ha combattuto contro la religione e la superstizione, e a favore dell'amore libero e dei matrimoni aperti. Un grande pensatore “immorale” del Novecento per affrontare le questioni più spinose del nostro tempo. È stato incarcerato due volte per pacifismo: la seconda, a novant'anni! Ha istituito un tribunale contro i crimini di guerra degli Stati Uniti in Vietnam. E a novantott'anni, due giorni prima di morire, ha lanciato un ultimo appello contro i crimini di guerra di Israele in Palestina. È considerato un “cattivo maestro” da tutti i farisei, di ieri e di oggi.*********************************Piergiorgio Odifreddi"Cattivo maestro"Bertrand Russell: logico, ateo, libertino, pacifistaRaffaello Cortina Editorewww.raffaellocortina.it

April 30th, 2026Commitee of 300-LET'S GET JACKED UP!In this episode, Tim allows the audience to hear a lecture from Dr. John Coleman about the subject of The Committee of 300. 300 elite people that make the decions for the world. Dr. John Coleman, being a historian in intelligence community, researched in full scope the sinister forces behind the New world order movement. This video lecture represents a culmination of his findings about secret societies which form this global movement and how it came into existence. More Info: http://Coleman300.com ~Free PDF Book & Sources: http://goo.gl/2q6dz & http://goo.gl/L3wSL John Coleman (born 1935) is an author and analyst of world affairs. He has written several books and numerous papers analyzing the power structure of the world. He argues that a relatively small group of people - whom he calls 'The Committee of 300' - constitute a ruling elite who are pursuing a goal of one-world government. Coleman's books have been influential among more well known conspiracy authors such as David Icke and Jim Marrs who quote him in their own works. Coleman researched the fact that the Muslim Brotherhood is a secret Masonic order created, with support from T. E. Lawrence, Bertrand Russell and St John Philby, to "keep the Middle East backward so its natural resource, oil, could continue to be looted." Coleman has also criticized the Club of Rome, the Giorgio Cini Foundation, Global 2000, the Interreligious Peace Colloquium, the Tavistock Institute, and other organizations. Coleman has published 22 books and hundreds of white paper reports—and currently publishes the "Weekly Intelligence Report," which can be purchased at http://coleman300.com The book titles include: "The Rothschild Dynasty" a book documenting the extensive and secretive influence of the Rothschild extended-family of banksters. ~"The Tavistock Institute Of Human Relations: Shaping the Moral, Spiritual, Cultural, Political and Economic Decline of the United States of America" ~"Conspirators Hierarchy: The Story of the Committee of 300 ~"One World Order: Socialist Dictatorship" (formerly titled "Socialism: The Road To Slavery") ~"Diplomacy by Deception: An Account of the Treasonous Conduct by the Governments of Britain and the United States" ~"Beyond The Conspiracy: Unmasking The Invisible World Government, The Committee Of 300" ~"What You Should Know About The United States Constitution And The Bill Of Rights" ~"Gun Control" " Apocalypse Waiting too Happen" "Drug War Against America" "PEARL HARBOR" "The Federal Reserve" "THe Club of Rome" "The Vanishing Middle Class" "Abortion: Genocide in America" "The Rothschild Dynasty" "We fight for Oil" "National Suicide: The Immigration Reform Act"To Listen to all episodes of LGJU, go to LetsGetJackedUp.com or FringeRadioNetwork.com Central Illinois-CONTACT Tim or Jack about a new roof or repairs by emailing us atRooferTimmer@gmail.com Or Call Jack at (309) 989-5566Get FRN Gear at FringeRadioNetwork.com/shop
William Taylor - The Incas and Pharoahs mummified their dead for eternal life. Mufasa taught Simba that the dead are amongst the stars in the 'Circle of Life'. Bertrand Russell insisted 'When I die, I rot'. Jesus teaches resurrection. It is altogether more credible.
Get-Fit Guy's Quick and Dirty Tips to Slim Down and Shape Up
697. Most people think "fitness" is just about how you look at the beach or your 5K time. But after two decades of coaching, host Kevin Don has realized that what people actually want isn't bigger biceps—it's to be happy. This week, we look back at an episode from step away from November 2024. We look at the squat rack and into the world of philosophy to answer a bold question: Which mode of exercise will actually increase your happiness the most?Drawing from Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics," Kevin explores the concept of eudaemonia (human flourishing) and why true "fitness" requires exercising your virtues rather than just your muscles. If you've ever felt like a new gym PR or a lower number on the scale didn't provide the fulfillment you expected, this episode explains why.In this episode, we discuss:The Puzzle of Identity: A quick (and nerdy) dive into Bertrand Russell's theory of definite descriptions.Why Fitness Isn't Compartmentalized: Moving toward a "whole" definition of health that permeates every facet of your life.The Greatest Self-Help Book of All Time: An introduction to Aristotle's "Nicomachean Ethics" and its relevance to modern wellness.The Doctrine of the Mean: How finding the balance between deficiency and excess (like courage vs. recklessness) creates a harmonious life.Practical Wisdom (Phronesis): Why knowing what is "good" in theory isn't enough—you have to practice it in real-life situations.The Three Types of Friendship: Why your social circle is a crucial component of your physical and mental flourishing.Get-Fit Guy is a Quick and Dirty podcast.

Life doesn't always give you the path you would choose...There's a race set before you, shaped by your circumstances, your story, and the challenges you didn't ask for. The question isn't whether you chose it… the question is: will you run it with perseverance?In this powerful teaching, we explore what it really means to persevere—not just through willpower, but through purpose. Drawing from Scripture, philosophy, and real-life stories of suffering and resilience, this message shows how perseverance is fueled by hope, vision, and a deep sense that your life matters.If you're tired, discouraged, or wondering if it's worth it to keep going… this is for you.Because sometimes the most spiritual thing you can do is just to take the next step.
Did analytic philosophy ruin the entire discipline?For more than a century there has been a divide in Western philosophy between two distinct approaches, often described as analytic and continental philosophy. Analytic philosophy is predominantly based in the English-speaking world taking its name from Bertrand Russell's philosophy of logical analysis that overthrew the grand Hegelian metaphysics of the 19th century. It did so in favour of a focus on logic and linguistic precision, with the assumption that science would do the serious work of uncovering the nature of reality. Continental philosophy, based primarily in France and Germany, has offered a broad range of outlooks on the nature of the human condition and the world. It has been defined by its critics simply in opposition to analytic philosophy.Few thinkers have bridged the divide to be taken seriously by both camps. Yet both traditions now have deep challenges. The original focus of analytic philosophy has become increasingly blurred while in France English speaking philosophy is now in vogue. What is the future of European thought? Are we seeing the end of the analytic and continental divide? Or is the Enlightenment tradition itself under threat and with it the influence and identity of European philosophy?Associate Professor of Philosophy at Northeastern University London, Christoph Schuringa is known for his works on German philosophy and is Editor of the Hegel Bulletin. Genia Schönbaumsfeld is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Southampton and the author of several books – most recently, Wittgenstein on Religious Belief. Babette Babich is Professor of Philosophy at Fordham University and the editor of the journal New Nietzsche Studies.

The smarter you are, the easier it is to get stuck - not because you lack ability, but because intelligence can quietly build a wall between you and the reality that would actually move you forward.EPISODE SUMMARYIn this episode, John explores one of the most common — and least talked about — reasons experienced speakers plateau.It's not a skill gap. It's a distance-from-reality problem.Drawing on 15 years of coaching speakers, John introduces the concept of psychological limiter loops: self-reinforcing cycles that keep you feeling productive while quietly keeping you stuck. He unpacks how intelligence, identity, and the need to protect your status can build a wall between you and the feedback, visibility, and real-world exposure that would actually accelerate your growth.This episode covers:• Why smart people overthink instead of executing• How psychological limiter loops work — and why they feel like progress from the inside• Why the hardest part of any speaker's journey challenges your identity, not just your skill• Five practical ways to break the loop and reconnect with realityWhether you're just starting or you've been speaking for years and know you should be further ahead, this one is for you.TIMESTAMPS00:00 The smarter you are, the easier it is to get stuck00:40 What this episode covers01:15 The Bertrand Russell quote and why intelligence creates doubt01:50 What a psychological limiter loop is — and what it looks like in practice02:40 How the loop builds a wall between you and reality03:15 Why this isn't just a beginner problem04:00 The dip - and why it's an identity challenge, not just a skill test04:50 Potential doesn't pay the bills.

In this episode of An Examined Education, we hear from Mason Settergren, Class of 2024, now a sophomore at Hillsdale College studying Classics and Math. Mason reflects on how 13 years at The Cambridge School cultivated a deep and abiding intellectual curiosity. From physics and Greek to neuroscience and theology, he describes an education where subjects were never siloed but woven together, each illuminating the other. A memorable moment in 11th-grade physics, wrestling with the implications of the double-slit experiment, sparked not only scientific wonder but philosophical and theological reflection. Rather than dismissing those connections, his teachers encouraged them. At Hillsdale, Mason continues to see the fruit of that formation. In studying the history of mathematics, even the words of Bertrand Russell prompt him to consider beauty, order, and perfection as reflections of a Creator. For Mason, math, language, science, and faith are not competing domains, but harmonies within a unified vision of truth. This episode is a thoughtful meditation on curiosity, integration, and the distinctly classical Christian conviction that all truth is God's truth. It is a reminder that education, rightly ordered, forms not only knowledgeable students, but worshipful learners. Think well. Love rightly. Live wisely.
Chris grew up Catholic, lost his faith in college after his twin brother nearly died and he was later diagnosed with stage three cancer, and spent years immersed in atheism shaped by thinkers like Bertrand Russell and the New Atheists. In this episode, we talk about the limits of scientific materialism and romantic idealism, the problem of suffering, the reality of consciousness, and why atheism is never just disbelief but always carries a worldview. Chris shares why he ultimately returned to Catholicism, how he holds faith and doubt together, and why hope, transcendence, and human dignity still matter in a culture shaped by fear, anxiety, and self-interest.Christopher Beha is former editor of Harper's Magazine; the author of a memoir, The Whole Five Feet; and the novels Arts & Entertainments and What Happened to Sophie Wilder. His most recent novel, The Index of Self-Destructive Acts, was nominated for the 2020 National Book Award.

“How do you tend to respond when you do not know?” We had this question in our Journal Circle a couple of weeks ago. It’s at the heart of many issues in our world right now. How do we hold it?When do we conceal it?Where do we turn for knowledge?And what do we do with it when we acquire it? That’s what we explore in this episode of The Gentle Rebel Podcast. https://youtu.be/QRAS1dib_GM Our Relationship With Not Knowing I find this advert baffling. A couple are wandering around the Leeum Museum in South Korea. They didn't know it was big; they only gave themselves an hour. He thinks a roof tile is a book. Even when his phone corrects him, they skip off giggling without listening to the information. It reminds me of a billboard from the AI company Turing that says the quiet part out loud: “We teach AGI to think, reason, and code—so you don’t have to.” Are we being encouraged to outsource our thinking and reasoning, not to support and deepen our cognitive abilities, but to replace them? Are they saying we don’t have to think or reason anymore? Even if that’s not the intention, it’s certainly the outcome of using many tools like this. There seems to be a disregard for the sacred delight of human consciousness, thought processes, and creativity. And a subtle quest to eliminate mystery, curiosity, and the learning that comes from not knowing. Yet not knowing has always been central to human potential. It is the driving force of creativity, innovation, and deeper connection to the worlds within, around, and between us. Open and Closed Stances As people reflected in our Journal Circle, a thread emerged: openness vs closedness. Closed not-knowing: defensive, protective, secretive. Open not-knowing: curious, relational, exploratory. Closedness can feel tight. Clenched. Like rushing to paint over the threat of embarrassment or being found out. Openness can feel spacious. Physically expansive, deeper, and less pressured. Where the uncertainty is met with an invitation into possibility and curiosity rather than grasping, clinging, and defensiveness. We explore several ways this plays out in everyday life. Pretending To Know One response to not knowing is pretending to know. We’ve probably all done it. Nodding along when everyone else seems to understand. Staying quiet because asking a question feels risky. Research in 2007 found that children aged 14 months to five years ask an average of 107 questions per hour. By the time they reach late primary school, many stop asking questions altogether. In the episode, I share an anecdote from research led by Susan Engel, where a ninth grader is stopped mid-question with the instruction: “No questions now, please; it's time for learning.” Within institutional settings, our natural curiosity and creativity can be left behind, and if questions are deemed disruptive or inappropriate, we may simply pretend to know and struggle quietly. This is especially true for many more introverted and sensitive people, who are already generally disposed to slot in around others without drawing much attention to themselves. Child-like Curiosity A child doesn’t see their lack of knowledge as a reason to be ashamed. It’s underpinned by the electric buzz of connection. Everything is new, mysterious, and waiting to be explored. For an adult moving through and out of a rigid system, not knowing can feel like an exposing story in which their worth as a human is assessed. Pretending to know can become an adaptive strategy. A way to keep the peace. A way to belong. There's also the technological version, prominent in many AI tools people rely on for accurate information. These systems are designed to always produce an answer, even when they are wrong. This reflects the kind of closed pretending that aims to foster a perception of expertise, so those listening believe that the source’s confidence equates to competence. But pretending doesn't only come from intentional deception. It can stem from stories we absorb, linking knowledge with worth: “I must know in order to be useful.”“I must be useful in order to be accepted.” Letting go of that story can be liberating. Saying “I Don't Know” “I don't know” is an option. A surprisingly radical one. When it is open, it creates space to explore our unknowing. An open “don’t know” admits not knowing with hands turned towards learning and discovery. It might come with an inner spark and the freedom from performance. A closed “I don't know” shuts things down. It can signal indifference or defensiveness. Sometimes that boundary is healthy. Sometimes it is armour. Being “In The Know” There is also the social currency of being “in the know.” Trends. News. Other people's business. Ignorance can feel like bliss. It can also feel like exclusion. From a closed place, being in the know becomes about control. From an open place, it can become a source of connection. The ability to link ideas, introduce people, and catalyse collaboration. Knowing What's Best Another response to uncertainty is doubling down on certainty. We are pattern-seeking creatures. We build cognitive maps to navigate a complex world. But when ambiguity feels overwhelming, certainty can feel like solid ground, even if it's forged, manufactured, and brittle. Closedness says “this is how it is”, refuses nuance, and punishes curiosity and accountability as disrespect, insolence, and rudeness. Open wisdom looks different. It sits shoulder to shoulder, acknowledges nuance, and is willing to say, “I don't know the best thing to do here.” Admitting one does not know can be a radical act in cultures that equate doubt with weakness and desperately seek a way to explain and understand everything, even without empirical evidence. Knowing That We Don't Know In a 1933 essay lamenting the rise of the Nazi movement in Germany, Bertrand Russell wrote, “The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure, while the intelligent are full of doubt.” Charles Bukowski said something similar when giving advice to budding writers: “But the problem is that bad writers tend to have the self-confidence, while the good ones tend to have self-doubt.“ These quotes highlight the importance of knowing what we do not know — and recognising the limits of our own perspective. This took us to a detour into the Dunning–Kruger effect, which is the idea that we can speak confidently about subjects precisely because we don't yet know what we don't know. Reading Maps and Navigating Life “I don't know, but I am aware of where to look to figure it out.” In The Return To Serenity Island course, we map elements of life, seeing it as a treasure laden island. Not knowing is a door to connection, curiosity, creativity, and exploration. But it can also feel disorienting, confusing, and alienating at times. Maps help disorientation become orientation-in-progress without strict instructions or someone else’s path to follow. They can bring us home to ourselves.
Bertrand Russell showed that clear thinking is a moral act
A @Christadelphians Video: **[OVER 18 MILLION PLAYS SO FAR!]**In this thought-provoking presentation from the sixth season of Bible Unlocked Live, we tackle one of the most significant obstacles to faith: the reality of miracles. Can we believe in a God who intervenes in His creation? Join us for an insightful exploration that contrasts the philosophy of naturalism with the outstanding power of God. We delve into a personal journey from seeking natural explanations for everything to embracing the wonderful truth that for God, nothing is impossible. This session lays a foundational stone for our series, "Why You Should Believe the Bible," revealing how faith is built on a rock-solid foundation of evidence and reason.**CHAPTERS:**00:00 - Introduction to Bible Unlocked Live Season 600:29 - The Essential Goal of This Season01:25 - The Life-Changing Hope of the Bible02:55 - Addressing Doubts and Building Confidence04:15 - The Big Question: Did Miracles Really Happen?05:05 - A Personal Story: A Scientific Upbringing06:34 - The Challenge of Joshua's Long Day07:40 - The Foundational Miracle: The Resurrection08:19 - Defining Miracles and the Philosophy of Naturalism09:53 - The Apple Analogy: Understanding Divine Intervention11:17 - The Limits of Scientific Naturalism12:20 - Bertrand Russell and the Irony of Scientism13:20 - The Righteous Approach: Admitting What We Cannot Comprehend14:51 - The Big Bang and the Limits of Science15:47 - The Bible as a Lamp to Our Path16:47 - Conclusion and Series Invitation**BIBLE VERSES EXPLORED:**

In this New Year's Eve special of Breaking History, Matt Ehret flies solo to close out 2025 with an extended, classroom-style presentation focused on what he describes as the intellectual, moral, and psychological traps shaping the road ahead. Matt frames the episode around themes of classical tragedy, mob psychology, and the loss of sovereignty, arguing that societies are repeatedly steered into fear-based thinking that leads people to participate in their own destruction. He examines the construction of modern enemy narratives, particularly surrounding China, Russia, and global war rhetoric, drawing on statements from figures such as George Soros, Steve Bannon, and U.S. national security officials. The episode then moves into a deep historical exploration of transhumanism, eugenics, and ideological convergence between technocratic elites and religious eschatology, tracing figures like Julian Huxley, Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, Bertrand Russell, and the Jesuit tradition. Matt concludes by urging viewers to raise their standards of thinking, reject simplistic narratives, and actively engage their reason and moral judgment as 2026 approaches.
The Conquest of Happiness (1930) is Bertrand Russell's short, practical guide to living more happily in the modern world. Russell argues that much unhappiness comes from patterns of thought and social pressures—like envy, fear of opinion, boredom, and the obsessive pursuit of status—and that these can be unlearned. He offers a clear-eyed, non-mystical path toward...
Dom and Chris of Sheep Farm Studios, and Matt Sergiou of The Occult Beatles site are going on a deep dive into the entity that is ‘The Beatles,' and the all-encompassing and often hidden influence of the Asher family, particularly its maternal line, the Eliot's. In this first episode of what is the ‘Asher's Addendum,' much of the focus is on one of the Eliots' most (in)famous ancestors, Bertrand Russell, so-called ‘philosopher and intellectual,' and a supporter of eugenics and a one world government, and he was, in Matt's words, the “grandfather” of the UK Sixties counter-culture. He was also 3rd Earl Russell, a member of the bloodline that lent its name to the Tavistock Clinic in London. Not enough for one episode? Well, listen on, there's lots more!

In the 1800s, it seemed like mathematics was a solved problem. The paradoxes in the field were resolved, and even areas like advanced calculus could be taught consistently and reliably at any school. It was clearly understandable in a way that abstract fields like philosophy weren’t, and it was on its way to solving humanity’s problems. Mathematical work on electromagnetism made modern electrical engineering and power systems possible. New research in algebra created the logical basis for future computer science and digital circuits. But then new problems appeared. In the early 20th century, mathematicians made discoveries that showed them enough to know how little they really knew. Bertrand Russell showed that at its edges, math fell apart. It couldn’t fully define itself on its own terms without becoming logically inconsistent. He gave the analogy of a small-town barber who shaves everyone who doesn't shave himself; the question is, who shaves the barber—if he shaves himself, he breaks the rule, but if he doesn't shave himself, he must, by the rule, shave himself? In today’s episode, I’m speaking to Jason Bardi, author of The Great Math War: How Three Brilliant Minds Fought for the Foundations of Mathematics and we explore the story of three competing efforts by mathematicians to resolve this crisis. What do you do if math, the most logical of all sciences, becomes illogical at a certain point? Bertrand Russell thought the problem could be solved with even more logic, we just hadn’t tried hard enough. David Hilbert thought redemption lay in accepting mathematics as a formal game of arbitrary rules, no different from the moves and pieces in chess. And L. E. J. Brouwer argued math is entirely rooted in human intuition—and that math is not based on logic but rather logic is based on math. Set against the backdrop of one of the most turbulent periods of European history (from the late 19th century through World War I, the 1920s, the Great Depression, and the early days of World War II), we look at what happens when rock-solid truths don’t seem so rock solid anymore.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
The future of European thoughtWhat is analytic philosophy and what is continental philosophy? And, perhaps most importantly, does this distinction make any sense?The division between these two branches has divided Western philosophy for decades now, with the Anglo-Saxon world largely associated with the analytical school, and the European continent with the, well, continental one. In this panel, our speakers discuss the future of thought for Western philosophy and Europe. Is the division between these schools obsolete? Are they both under threat? What can we expect?Join our three philosophy professors, Christoph Schuringa, Genia Schönbaumsfeld, and Babette Babich to discuss these themes.

Hablamos de realismo sucio, del absurdo y de la risa con el joven escritor Manuel Mata, autor de El tema (Ed. Pre-Textos), poemario juguetón, inteligentísimo y se diría que casi mutante por su capacidad para cambiar de piel en cada página con el que ha ganado el V Premio de Poesía Antonio Ródenas García- Nieto.Luego, Ignacio Elguero nos recomienda La conquista de la felicidad, el clásico del filósofo británico Bertrand Russell en una edición de lujo ilustrada por Montse Galbany para la editorial Taurus y Pan de ángeles (Ed. Lumen), las apasionantes memorias de la compositora y cantante estadounidense Patti Smith. En su sección, Javier Lostalé recuerda a su amigo -el también poeta- Antonio Hernández al hilo de Voy a contarles mi vida (Ed. Ya lo dijo Casimiro Parker), antología preparada por Óscar Martín Centeno que recoge algunos de los poemas más icónicos del autor gaditano ahora que se cumple el primer aniversario de su muerte.Además, Sergio C. Fanjul nos pone tras la pista de El único planeta verdaderamente alienígena es la Tierra (Ed. Akal), ensayo del escritor y teórico cultural Alberto Santamaría que pone de relieve la vigencia de la obra del narrador británico J. G. Ballard, pionero en la exploración de los rincones más oscuros de nuestra sociedad contemporánea.Terminamos en compañía de Mariano Peyrou, que hoy hace sonar la Música popular. Así se titula el nuevo poemario de Juan Bello Sánchez, un libro minimalista y muy coherente en lo formal en el que el autor demuestra, sin embargo, su pericia en el uso de distintos tonos y estrategias compositivas.

🎙️ Estimados oyentes y mecenas: En el episodio de hoy nos adentramos en la Escuela de Filosofía del Lenguaje de Cambridge, un núcleo decisivo para el desarrollo de la filosofía analítica del siglo XX. Repasaremos las figuras clave que enseñaron allí —Bertrand Russell, Ludwig Wittgenstein y G. E. Moore— y su impacto en la manera de entender el lenguaje, el pensamiento y la realidad. Hablaremos también de la revista Analysis, de la figura de John Wisdom y del enfoque característico de esta escuela, concebida como una forma de “terapia lingüística” cuyo objetivo no es construir teorías, sino disolver confusiones conceptuales. ❓ ¿Crees que la filosofía debe ofrecer teorías sobre el mundo o, más bien, ayudarnos a aclarar y sanar los malentendidos que crea el lenguaje? Gracias por acompañarme una vez más en este recorrido filosófico y por el apoyo constante que hace posible este proyecto. 📗ÍNDICE 0. Resúmenes iniciales. 1. PROFESORES EN CAMBRIDGE. 2.

After 27 years, Melvyn Bragg has decided to step down from the In Our Time presenter's chair. With over a thousand episodes to choose from, he has selected just six that capture the huge range and depth of the subjects he and his experts have tackled. In this third of his choices, we hear Melvyn Bragg and his guests discuss Greek philosophy. Their topic is Zeno of Elea, a pre-Socratic philosopher from c490-430 BC whose paradoxes were described by Bertrand Russell as "immeasurably subtle and profound." The best known argue against motion, such as that of an arrow in flight which is at a series of different points but moving at none of them, or that of Achilles who, despite being the faster runner, will never catch up with a tortoise with a head start. Aristotle and Aquinas engaged with these, as did Russell, yet it is still debatable whether Zeno's Paradoxes have been resolved. With Marcus du Sautoy Professor of Mathematics and Simonyi Professor for the Public Understanding of Science at the University of Oxford Barbara Sattler Lecturer in Philosophy at the University of St Andrews and James Warren Reader in Ancient Philosophy at the University of Cambridge Producer: Simon Tillotson In Our Time is a BBC Studios Production Spanning history, religion, culture, science and philosophy, In Our Time from BBC Radio 4 is essential listening for the intellectually curious. In each episode, host Melvyn Bragg and expert guests explore the characters, events and discoveries that have shaped our world
L'héritage de Nuremberg traverse l'Atlantique. Aux États-Unis, les militants des droits civiques invoquent les crimes contre l'humanité pour dénoncer le racisme. Pendant la guerre du Vietnam, des tribunaux d'opinion, comme celui de Bertrand Russell reprennent cet esprit de justice universelle. Sans sanction, mais avec une portée symbolique puissante. Avec Guillaume Mouralis, historien et auteur de Le moment Nuremberg. Le procès international, les lawyers et la question raciale paru aux Presses de Sciences Po

Jasun Horsley was born into a family of the British 'elite'. When he was a child he was unaware that his paternal grandfather, Alec Horsley, Oxford Balliol graduate and founding member of the Campaign for Nuclear Disarmament, was also a Fabian and helped found the Hull branch when he was Sheriff of Hull. Jasun's father also rubbed elbows with characters like Sir Richard Acland, Bertrand Russell, and the Paedophile Information Exchange, a British pro-paedophilia activist group. Jasun was made aware that his family's circle of influence were mockingly called “champagne socialists,” and that the family business, Northern Foods was in cahoots with other notable corporate giants, while being a major player in world business. One thing was clear to Jasun from an early age, he had no interest in joining the family business! At 18, he inherited a small fortune from his father, which landed him in New York as an aspiring filmmaker. Upon his discovery of "The Teachings of Don Juan" through the works of Carlos Castaneda he decided that sorcery was a truer and more adventurous path. He later concluded that there was much congruity between the film industry and sorcery, which was later explored in his book "Seen and Not Seen: Confessions of a Movie Autist" that examines the military-entertainment complex, and how American movies have become weaponized. Jasun's pursuit of sorcery knowledge led him to Oaxaca, Mexico, and then to New Mexico, where he made a "misguided" attempt to start an intentional community, after which, at age 24, he disinherited his fortune and disappeared to Morocco, with nothing but a poncho and meager belongings. Some thirty years since, Jasun has continued his introspection into the ways in which popular culture, alternate or “counter-” culture, politics, and pseudo-spiritualty are all limbs of a covert, multi-generational, social-engineering octopus that includes occult societies, intelligence agencies, and organized crime networks. While spanning centuries along many disparate groups, ideologies, organizations, and agendas, Jasun has determined this “superculture” to be largely consistent in its aims, principles, and methods. Join us in this free-flowing discussion as Jasun and the Alfacast crew review his many provocative works for an insider's view of the world through the eyes of the so-called "elite".
