This lecture discusses key ideas from the 18th century philosopher, essayist, and historian, David Hume's work A Treatise of Human Nature Specifically it examines what our conception of identity is for various objects over time, which Hume thinks is actually a fiction created by our own mind out of our perceptions, associating them in relation to each other in terms of resemblance, contiguity, and causation. With various objects we may focus on the proportion of changing parts to a whole, the reference of those parts to some common end or purpose, or on the sympathy of parts in mutual cause and effect.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 18th century philosopher, essayist, and historian, David Hume's work A Treatise of Human Nature Specifically it examines his argument that there is no such thing as a human self in a metaphysical sense of a substance or soul that remains the same throughout changes. Instead, what we have or are is a bundle or collection of perceptions in the mind. While we can form an idea of the self, this is essentially a fiction.

We are reminded of Jesus' teaching on the vine and the branches, and we consider what it means to live from God's life rather than our own especially when we meet challenges in daily life and in parenthood.  Finally, drawing wisdom from Wendell Berry, we explore how the natural world reveals that some of life's deepest beauty and meaning emerge through encounter, resistance, and relationship, reminding us that we were never meant to be self-sufficient, but rooted in the source of all life.

Fundamental to Islamic thought is the idea that there is a way that human beings simply are, by nature or creation. This concept is called fiṭra. In The Politics of Islamic Ethics: Hierarchy and Human Nature in the Philosophical Tradition (Cambridge UP, 2025), rooting her investigation in two central passages in the Qur'an and hadith literature, where it is asserted that God created human beings in a certain way, the author moves beyond discussion of the usual figures who have commented on those texts to look instead at a group of classical Islamic philosophers rarely discussed in conjunction with ethical matters. Tracing the development of fiṭra through this overlooked strand of medieval thinking, von Doetinchem de Rande uses fiṭra as an entrée to wider topics in Islamic ethics. She shows that the notion of fiṭra articulated by al-Fārābī, Ibn Bājja, Ibn Ṭufayl, and Ibn Rushd highlights important issues about organizational hierarchies of human nature. This, she argues, has major implications for contemporary political and legal debates. Raissa von Doetinchem de Rande is Assistant Professor of Religious Ethics and Islamic Studies at the University of Chicago. Host Yaseen Christian Andrewsen is a DPhil candidate at the University of Oxford, specialising in Islamic intellectual history in West Africa focusing on issues in Sufism, theology, renewal, and authority.

Today on Uncommon Sense, we're discussing the tragic state of the modern world.From the protests in Ireland to growing frustration across Western nations, many people feel as though their voices are no longer being heard by the institutions that claim to represent them. I'll share why I support the right of people to protest and why I believe the demonstrations in Ireland have resonated with so many people around the world.We'll also discuss what I see as a deeper spiritual crisis affecting modern society. Many of the political, cultural, and social problems we face today are symptoms of a broader moral and spiritual decline, one that cannot be solved through politics alone.In this episode:My thoughts on the protests in IrelandWhy so many citizens now feel disconnected from their governmentsThe growing divide between ordinary people and powerful institutionsThe role of faith, morality, and personal responsibility in rebuilding societyWhy I believe many of today's crises point to a deeper spiritual battleWhether you agree or disagree, this episode is an invitation to think critically about the direction of our culture, our governments, and our future.--https://www.youversion.com/bible-app

Also a historical sketch of the influence of the book, Human Nature in its Fourfold State, by Thomas Boston and how just reading it in a group of awakened Virginia farmers was a means to the end of the Hanover County Revival.

The idea of ‘human nature' has become controversial. In the past, it has been used to denigrate other people, other cultures, and other creatures. But according to philosopher Katie Ebner-Landy, we cannot do away with the concept, in spite of all its flaws. What understanding of human nature might avoid the violence to which it was put in the past? And can it help to make human lives better? 

On EP 644 of Speak Yo Mind Radio, I dive into the magic of Michael Jackson's “Thriller” and the timeless groove of “Human Nature.”

Why are we so easily pulled into outrage online?In this episode of The Searchers Podcast, Atem and Kirron unpack why modern society feels increasingly driven by fear, anger, and overstimulation — and whether that's by design.We talk about why rage-bait spreads so easily online, whether ambition and the drive to grow is human nature, and what addiction is really teaching us about what people are searching for underneath the surface.The conversation moves from ancient Greece and how societies prepared for war… to irrational fears we've personally carried… to why relationships feel harder to invest in today than ever before.It gets thoughtful, a little chaotic, and honestly pretty funny by the end.• Why rage-bait keeps winning online• Whether ambition and making money is natural• Addiction, sugar and what we're really chasing• Why America never feels “safe” despite huge military spending• How our brains manufacture fear• Ancient Greece and war culture• Our irrational fears growing up• Why modern dating and relationships feel harder• And… why white people skydive and bungee jump

It is Human Nature to want to assume that a big 1/1 sale impacts the value of your card... but does it?

A nightclub cleaning woman suspects that her boss is a fence. The boss is murdered in a very secure room...with a suspicious cuckoo clock! - Originally aired September 15, 1952

Tom Bilyeu joins James Smith to discuss how broken the modern economy really is. The host of Impact Theory and co-founder of Quest Nutrition argues that inflation is theft, that you cannot save your way to success anymore, and that elites are quietly funneling wealth from the working class. He explains: ◼️ Why a balanced budget changes every policy argument ◼️ How property markets get fixed by deregulation, not taxes ◼️ Why men should be encouraged to go hard in the paint ◼️ How AI is shrinking headcount while multiplying output ◼️ Why paying down debt can quietly beat the stock market

It is Human Nature to want to assume that a big 1/1 sale impacts the value of your card... but does it?

Whether it be ungratefulness in the midst of a gift, pride borne out of success, or simply settling to escape hardship, we must be wary of these phenomena when setting out to do the work God has for us.

Episode SummaryIn this episode, Morgan sits down with former military operator, behavioral expert, and communication specialist Chase Hughes to break down the hidden psychology behind influence, persuasion, and human behavior.Chase shares how elite interrogation and behavioral techniques can be applied to sales, leadership, negotiation, relationships, and everyday communication. From identity framing and covert influence to metaphors, elicitation, and detecting deception, this episode dives deep into how people make decisions often without realizing it.The conversation explores why resonance matters more than persuasion, how to guide people toward their own conclusions, and the neuroscience behind trust, communication, and compliance.

We don't Wanna Be Startin' Somethin', but Michael Jackson holds the record of being one of the best-selling artists of all time and no one has been able to Beat It. Wooo! And we Remember the Time when the King of Pop was beloved by all. Shamone! So, on this episode of Baconsale, we're ready to discuss the man who will dance on the floor in the round. We'll first review his HIStory, including the good and the Bad (and the Black or White). Then we're going to Heal the World by talking about MJ's best and worst songs. Hee-hee! This episode is sure to be a Thriller, and may even sound Dangerous, but we'll keep things family friendly and focus on the music and Human Nature instead of controversy.   If you wanna make the world a better place, take a look at yourself and then press play.   And if you want to Jam to Michael's hits, You Are Not Alone. Visit Baconsale.com to find our official Spotify playlist.

The human nature of Christ was capable of having new objects proposed to its mind and understanding, whereof before it had a simple nescience. And this is an inseparable adjunct of human nature as such, as it is to be weary or hungry, and no vice or blamable defect.

His firm manages over $10 million in annual ad spend and has driven more than $1 million in client profits in the last 60 days alone. Jaden breaks down why most businesses don't have a sales problem but a marketing problem, how to rank your brand inside ChatGPT before your competitors realize it's the new Google, and why discipline beats talent every time. He's 19, no degree, and already lapping people twice his age. The blueprint is right here. The only question is whether you're going to use it. 

What do our Google searches reveal about who we really are? For a new book, What We Ask Google, data analyst Simon Rogers explores the world's biggest dataset - billions of searches carried out over two decades - to provide a revealing portrait of our collective brain. In this episode, he speaks to Carl Miller about what the data reveals—from how we process grief and loneliness, to how we seek to understand our health, to “nowcasting” and how our search data can anticipate future trends. Along the way, he uncovers some unexpected cultural trends: in Paris, the most searched-for food is pizza; in the UK, parents look for children's parkour classes, while in the US, it's etiquette and croquet. If social media is where we perform, he says, our search data is a more honest reflection of our interests, offering a window into humanity's endless gift for curiosity.  Simon Rogers is Google's Data Editor. What We Ask Google is available online and in stores now. Carl Miller is an author and researcher at Demos.

With all of the black-and-white moralizing in our world today, we decided to bring back an old show from 2011 about the little bit of bad that's in all of us...and the little bit of really, really bad that's in some of us.   Cruelty, violence, badness... in this episode we begin with a chilling statistic: 91% of men, and 84% of women, have fantasized about killing someone. We take a look at one particular fantasy lurking behind these numbers, and wonder what this shadow world might tell us about ourselves and our neighbors. Then, we reconsider what Stanley Milgram's famous experiment really revealed about human nature (it's both better and worse than we thought). Next, we meet a man who scrambles our notions of good and evil: chemist Fritz Haber, who won a Nobel Prize in 1918...around the same time officials in the US were calling him a war criminal. And we end with the story of a man who chased one of the most prolific serial killers in US history, then got a chance to ask him the question that had haunted him for years: why?

Episode 3374: Chris Reining explains how human nature pushes investors to follow the herd, leading to poor decisions like selling low and buying high. Drawing on insights from Warren Buffett and Benjamin Graham, he shows that real success comes from acting against the crowd and staying rational during market chaos. Understanding this mindset shift can help you turn volatility into opportunity. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://chrisreining.com/herd/ Quotes to ponder: "It's mostly nonsense, because don't you think if analysts, economists, or strategists knew where the market was headed they'd be investing for themselves instead of working for a salary?" “Make the market your servant, not your master.” "But if you want to make the most money investing you need to do what most people can't do: buy when everyone else panics and sells."
