Wie viel Begrenzung braucht Freiheit, um nicht zerstört zu werden? In unserer Folge 333 (!!!!) sprechen wir über Sinn und Unsinn von Verboten – und darüber, warum Regeln für eine Gesellschaft unverzichtbar sind. Wann schützen sie uns – und wann fühlen sie sich wie Bevormundung an? Warum wurden Sicherheitsgurt und Rauchverbot erst bekämpft und später selbstverständlich akzeptiert? Und weshalb wirken manche Regelverstöße wie Kavaliersdelikte, während andere unsere Grundordnung erschüttern? Ausgehend von aktuellen gesellschaftlichen Debatten – etwa über Gewalt im öffentlichen Raum oder die Frage nach Zivilcourage – diskutieren wir: • Welche Aufgaben haben Verbote in einer Gesellschaft? • Brauchen wir mehr Regeln oder mehr Konsequenz? • Wann verlieren Normen ihre Autorität? • Und was lernen Kinder über Regeln, wenn Erwachsene sich nicht einig sind? Mit Gedanken von John Stuart Mill, Immanuel Kant und Carlo Schmid fragen wir: Ist Freiheit ohne Grenze überhaupt denkbar? Eine Folge über Verantwortung, Respekt und die fragile Balance zwischen individueller Freiheit und dem Schutz aller. Diskutiert gern weiter mit uns über die Grenzen der Freiheit und über Verbote, die Ihr wichtig findet oder die Euch nerven. Bis nächsten Sonntag, Annika und Tilly

In this podcast we will be talking about The 7 ways to manage time from the teachings of Immanuel Kant. Kant. Immanuel Kant  is considered to be one of the central Enlightenment thinkers of all time. His philosophy is called Kantianism. So here are 7 time management tips from Immanuel Kant - 01. Organize yourself02. Follow through03. Follow universal principles in your daily activities04. Schedule time for developing your skills05. Make time for the small things06. Make time for your other duties 07. Make time for moral self-developmentHope you enjoyed this audio and find these insights on time management from Immanuel Kant helpful. Immanuel Kant lived in the 18th century and is considered to be one of the greatest German philosophers and one of the central Enlightenment thinkers of all time. His philosophical revolution was to place the human at the center of the philosophical study of knowledge, morality, and beauty.  He deeply believed that reason is the root of morality. His thoughts on the relationship between reason and human experience led to the notion of “procedural humanism” or “Kantian humanism”. The work of Immanuel Kant is still relevant today as the humanistic values of Western culture are deeply influenced by the Kantian moral philosophy. His philosophy is called KantianismThe fundamental idea of Kant's “critical philosophy” – especially in his three Critiques: the Critique of Pure Reason (1781, 1787), the Critique of Practical Reason (1788), and the Critique of the Power of Judgment (1790) – is human autonomy. He argues that human understanding is the source of the general laws of nature that structure all our experience; and that human reason gives itself the moral law, which is our basis for belief in God, freedom, and immortality.

The self and the world We tend to think of ourselves as observers of the world and experience as something different from the material stuff that makes up reality. Yet at the same time as human beings, we are at once part of the universe and part of that reality. And this profoundly puzzling relationship, that we are both part of something and yet separate from it, has been at the centre of Western thought. Materialists claim there is only physical material. But if so, thought, experience, and consciousness become illusory. Idealists argue there is only consciousness, but then it is reality that becomes an illusion. While dualists hold that both the self and the world exist, but that the connection between the two is mysterious. Is the self part of the world or necessarily outside of it? Was Kant right that the distinction between subject and object is necessary for experience to be possible? Or are these deep metaphysical questions beyond us, and our theories and language incapable of uncovering the ultimate state of things?Slavoj Žižek is one of the most famous philosophers in the world and is the author of more than 50 books, including most recently at the time of the debate Zero Point. Alenka Zupančič is a leading Lacanian philosopher and social theorist. She is a professor at The European Graduate School and at the University of Nova Gorica. Joining from America, Carlo Rovelli is a leading theoretical physicist, the author of several best-selling books, and a founding figure in the field of quantum gravity. His recent book, Reality Is Not What It Seems, has ethical implications for the nature of the self and personal identity. Jack Symes hosts.

In einem Leitartikel in der Frankfurter Allgemeinen Sonntagszeitung (FAS) wurde vor Weihnachten die Frage (Titel) gestellt: Wie wirklich ist Gott? Die Spuren, die der Autor, für die evangelische Kirche zuständig, dann verfolgte, liefen "über" Jürgen Habermas, Georg Wilhelm Friedrich Hegel, Immanuel Kant und andere Größen von Denkern, Theologen und Philosophen. Die Welt kennt diese Namen. Soll man sagen: Natürlich kam ein Apostel Paulus nicht vor, auch nicht Martin Luther, Johanens Calvin, John Nelson Darby, William Kelly, Carl Brockhaus und andere. Die Frage ist: Wer hat in  Gottes Geschichtsschreibung wirklich Spuren hinterlassen. Wer eigentlich? Vermutlich mehr von denen, die hier auf der Erde Unbekannte waren ...

Många har grubblat över existensens själva existens. Helena Granström ansluter sig skaran. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radios app. ESSÄ: Detta är en text där skribenten reflekterar över ett ämne eller ett verk. Åsikter som uttrycks är skribentens egna.Om man ska tro filosofen Arthur Schopenhauer, erbjuder universum en lika pockande som gäckande gåta för varje tänkande person: ”Ju lägre stående en människa är i intellektuellt avseende, desto mindre förbryllande och mystisk ter sig själva existensen för henne.” Det vill säga: Har man bara något bakom pannbenet, så inser man att tillvaron är obegriplig: inte bara till sin natur, utan i det att den alls finns.Ska man tro honom? Tja, den som önskar belägg för hans tes kan i alla fall utan svårighet finna en uppsjö av intellektuellt ambitiösa personer som upptagits just av bryderier över existensens själva existens.1700-talstänkaren Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz, till exempel, som efter att ha fastslagit sin berömda princip att varje sakförhållande också kan ges en fullständig förklaring, konstaterade att den första fråga som därpå infann sig var: ”Varför finns det något, snarare än ingenting?”En formulering som drygt två sekler senare ekade hos hans tyske kollega Martin Heidegger som också han ansattes av frågan: ”Varför är överhuvudtaget något varande, och inte snarare intet?”Han man väl låtit sig upptas av denna undran, bleknar alla andra gåtor bort i dess bländande sken. Som ett annat högstående intellekt vid namn Ludvig Wittgenstein formulerat det är det mystiska ”inte hur världen är, utan att den är”.Och varför är den då?Det visar sig att frågan har minst lika många svar som den har möjliga invändningar mot de givna svaren – som den har möjliga underkännanden av själva frågan.Till att börja med kan man ju undra hur ett tillfredsställande svar skulle kunna se ut? Vilken orsak till världens existens skulle inte i sin tur kräva en orsak, så att man i slutändan inte hade åstadkommit något alls?Leibniz själv tyckte sig kunna besvara frågan så snart han ställt den: Orsaken till världens existens är Gud.Jaha. Men vad är i så fall orsaken till att Gud finns?Jo, svarar Leibniz, det är Gud.Vilket är det som i Leibniz mening skiljer Gud och universum åt: Universum hade lika gärna inte kunnat existera, och därför kräver dess existens en förklaring. Gud, däremot, utgör sin egen nödvändighet: I Guds identitet, ingår egenskapen att han existerar. Orsaken till att Gud finns är Gud.Ett besläktat argument är det som går under det arabiska namnet Kalam, och som gör gällande att universum behöver förklaras eftersom det en gång har uppstått, medan Gud är ett tidlöst väsen som alltid har funnits, och som sådant kan förbli oförklarat.Utifrån ett sådant resonemang kan den kosmologiska teorin om världsalltets födelse i Big Bang för knappt 14 miljarder år sedan med en del god vilja betraktas som belägg för en övernaturlig varelses inblandning. Men å andra sidan kan man invända att de flesta varianter av Big Bang-modellen gör gällande att tiden uppstod först i och med ursmällen, så att universum faktiskt visst alltid har existerat, om man med alltid menar ”vid alla ögonblick i tiden”.Och därmed har man gett sig in på fysikernas försök att besvara den uppenbarligen svårbesvarade frågan om orsaken till världens existens. Varför något snarare än intet? Vad sägs om svaret: ”Därför att ett instabilt vakuum uppstod som en fluktuation i den absoluta intigheten, som i fysikaliska termer kan beskrivas som en sluten fyrdimensionell rumtid med radien noll. Detta vakuum genomsyrades av kvantfält vars fluktuationer i sin tur sådde fröet till det universum vi ser idag”?Ja, det får åtminstone mig att undra om allt ståhej kring frågan om existensens orsak åtminstone till viss del är ett resultat av de högtstående intellektens tendens att intellektualisera lite för mycket?För hur mycket har det intet som enligt Heidegger gör sig påmint i stunder av bottenlös förtvivlan eller oförstörd lycka, egentligen att göra med den teoretiska fysikens bild av ett universum som ännu inte finns? Kanske faktiskt nästan – intet?Men en sak kan man i alla fall säga om fysikernas rumtid utan utsträckning: Den är verkligen intet, mer intet än en tom rumtid, mer intet än ett tomt rum utan tid, mer intet än – ja, det mesta. Det enda som måste sägas ha funnits från början i denna modell är de naturlagar som tillåter ett kvantfält att tunnla fram ur detta totala intet. Men på vilket sätt fanns i så fall de?Frågan om varför det finns något för oss alltså oförhappandes vidare till frågan om huruvida fysikens lagar existerar inte bara oberoende av den mänskliga tanken, utan till och med oberoende av att det finns någon fysikalisk tillvaro som de kan beskriva. Och där har vi hamnat utan att vad det verkar ha kommit så särskilt mycket närmare ett svar på frågan om varför något existerar alls.Och ju mer man tänker på saken, desto mindre uppenbart tycks det att upptagenheten vid denna fråga är tecken på intellektuell finess. Är den i själva verket inte, som redan Immanuel Kant ville göra gällande, bara en effekt av att ha utvidgat idén om orsak och verkan längre än vad som är rimligt? Oavsett hur naturlig kausaliteten ter sig för oss, finns det nämligen mycket som tyder på att den inte gäller på de minsta partiklarnas kvantmekaniska nivå, och att universums födelse var en händelse då kvantmekaniken spelade roll har vi mycket goda skäl att tro. Och dessutom: Om tiden uppstod först i och med den stora smällen, hur är det möjligt att tala om en orsak som föregår den? Är det något som behövs för att orsakssamband ska kunna upprättas är det väl tid.För den som vill gå ännu djupare i sin kritik av frågan om varför något istället för intet, finns inte heller några hinder. Varför tycker vi exempelvis att existensen av något behöver motiveras, men inte existensen av intet? Varför ska intigheten på detta vis betraktas som ett naturligt grundtillstånd? Enligt filosofen Adolf Grünbaum är det ingen slump att frågan började ställas först i den moderna eran: De gamla grekerna upptogs inte av den, och inte heller antika indiska tänkare. Skälet? De var inte fostrade i den kristna tro som postulerar en skapelse ur intet, ex nihilo. Först i och med den kristna läran om en allsmäktig gud som häver existensen upp ur intet och därefter oupphörligt verkar för att upprätthålla den, skulle vi inte vara så övertygade om att varje avvikelse från intigheten kräver en förklaring. Detta alltså enligt Grünbaum. Som matematiker är jag också frestad att inflika att det finns många fler sätt att existera på, än det finns att inte existera på, vilket väl i sig är en sorts statistiskt argument för någontinget. Kanske är frågan om varför världen är i själva verket ett skenproblem?Ja, vem vet. Men hur som helst finns det också, vad Schopenhauer än påstod, tänkande personer som intar en helt annan hållning till problematiken än den djupsinnigt grubblande. Som exempelvis filosofen Sidney Morgenbesser, som när den eviga frågan ställdes till honom helt sonika snäste ifrån: ”Äsch! Även om det fanns intet skulle ni säkert inte vara nöjda ändå!”Helena Granströmförfattare med bakgrund inom fysik och matematikLitteraturJim Holt – Why does the world exist?

An individual "is responsible for everything he does," claimed Sartre. And from criminal justice to creative expression, free will and responsibility are central to our culture and our personal lives. Yet neuroscientists and materialist thinkers commonly maintain that freedom is an illusion. And it remains unknown how the core principles of freedom and responsibility can be reconciled with this outlook. Many attempts have been made to argue that the two seemingly contradictory frameworks can be made compatible. But critics say these "compatibilist" arguments are unconvincing and are driven merely by the attempt to make scientific materialism acceptable. Furthermore, whilst surveys suggest most materialist philosophers believe we can reconcile the two, the majority of us reject the idea that an action can be both determined and free.Paul Bloom is a Canadian-American psychologist, bestselling author, and celebrated speaker.

In this episode of Chasing Leviathan, PJ Wehry is joined by philosopher Dr. Adebayo Oluwayomi, assistant professor of philosophy at West Chester University of Pennsylvania, to discuss his book Foundations of Black Epistemology: Knowledge, Discourse, and Africana Philosophy.The conversation examines how philosophical canons are formed, who is recognized as a knower, and how Black thinkers have often been treated as secondary or optional within Western philosophy. Dr. Oluwayomi argues that philosophy is never neutral and that canon formation reflects deeper questions of power, exclusion, and epistemic harm.They discuss major figures such as Immanuel Kant and G. W. F. Hegel, focusing not only on their influence but also on the racial assumptions that are frequently ignored in philosophical education. The episode then turns to Black intellectuals including Frederick Douglass, Ida B. Wells, and Huey P. Newton, showing how their work contributes substantively to epistemology, moral reasoning, political theory, and liberation movements.Dr. Oluwayomi's work challenges inherited assumptions about philosophy, knowledge, and authority, and asks what is lost when entire traditions are treated as peripheral rather than foundational.Make sure to check out Dr. Oluwayomi's book: Foundations of Black Epistemology: Knowledge Discourse in Africana Philosophy

Lo último de Escohotado acaba de ver la luz. Si, ya sé que el maestro murió hace más de tres años, pero algo dejó escrito para que ahora su hijo Jorge lo haya adaptado para su publicación póstuma. Ese algo es la “Filosofía para no filósofos” publicado por la editorial Espasa y que supone la última de las lecciones escohotadianas. No es un libro enteramente nuevo, se trata de una adaptación de textos anteriores como “Filosofía y metodología de las ciencias sociales” publicado hace más de cuarenta años y “Génesis y evolución del análisis científico”, que vio la luz a principios de siglo. En ambos casos se encuentran descatalogados, luego tenemos la oportunidad de acceder a un material de primera calidad que nació en las clases que Escohotado impartía en la UNED. “Filosofía para no filósofos” hace honor al título. Es un texto accesible para un público amplio y cumple con creces la promesa de ofrecer un recorrido por la historia del pensamiento occidental desde los orígenes míticos hasta el siglo XX. En tanto que no deja de ser un manual de filosofía se puede abordar en cualquiera de los 24 capítulos que tiene. Arranca con el pensamiento arcaico y precientífico para luego adentrarse en la filosofía griega desde los presocráticos como Tales, Heráclito o Parménides hasta los grandes sistemas filosóficos de Platón y Aristóteles, a los que Escohotado critica por su excesivo idealismo. Hace hincapié en figuras como Epicuro y Lucrecio como precursores del racionalismo científico, y dedica espacio a la ciencia helenística personificada en Euclides y Arquímedes. Pasa de puntillas por la edad media ya que, a juicio del autor, es una época no especialmente innovadora en materia de pensamiento. El renacimiento y la modernidad, auténticas especialidades de Escohotado, los trata con gran detalle. A lo largo de varios capítulos desfilan los principales pensadores europeos de los siglos XV, XVI, XVII y XVIII: Copérnico, Kepler, Galileo, Bacon, Descartes, Newton, Spinoza (al que admira especialmente), Leibniz, empiristas ingleses como Locke, Berkeley y Hume, la Ilustración francesa e Immanuel Kant, al que dedica un capítulo entero Es un libro claro y totalmente accesible al lector lego en filosofía. Escohotado escribe con su característica elegancia, pero con un lenguaje directo, en ocasiones irónico y salpicado de anécdotas cotidianas. Su mérito principal es el de evitar a propósito la abstrusa jerga de los filósofos que hacen inabordables sus obras. Consigue hacer más o menos comprensibles conceptos realmente complejos como los sistemas filosóficos de Kant o Hegel. A todo le añade su perspectiva personal, determinada, caro está, por sus propias convicciones. Escohotado en vida defendía la libertad individual y el uso de la razón y, al mismo tiempo, criticaba de forma inmisericorde el irracionalismo y el colectivismo. No es, por lo tanto, un manual neutro, un resumen de historia de la filosofía. Cada una de sus páginas está impregnada por el espíritu y la erudición del autor. Una obra, en definitiva, muy valiosa e instructiva. Sirve como manual para aprender filosofía sí, pero también como punto de partida a muchas y muy buenas reflexiones sobre el mundo y la naturaleza humana. Hoy vamos a hablar de “Filosofía para no filósofos” en La ContraPortada.

Immanuel Kant is undoubtedly the most important philosopher of the modern era. His Critique of Pure Reason, “categorical imperative,” and conception of perpetual peace in the global order decisively influenced both intellectual history and twentieth-century politics, shaping everything from the German Constitution to the United Nations Charter. Renowned philosopher Marcus Willaschek explains why, three centuries after Kant's birth, his reflections on democracy, beauty, nature, morality, and the limits of human knowledge remain so profoundly relevant. Weaving biographical and historical context together with exposition of key ideas, Willaschek emphasizes three central features of Kant's theory and method. First, Kant combines seemingly incompatible positions to show how their insights can be reconciled. Second, he demonstrates that it is not only human thinking that must adjust to the realities of the world; the world must also be fitted to the structures of our thinking. Finally, he overcomes the traditional opposition between thought and action by putting theory at the service of practice. In Kant: A Revolution in Thinking (Harvard UP, 2025), even readers having no prior acquaintance with Kant's ideas or with philosophy generally will find an adroit introduction to the Prussian polymath's oeuvre, beginning with his political arguments, expanding to his moral theory, and finally moving to his more abstract considerations of natural science, epistemology, and metaphysics. Along the way, Kant himself emerges from beneath his famed works, revealing a magnetic personality, a clever ironist, and a man deeply engaged with his contemporary world. Marcus Willaschek is Professor of Philosophy at Goethe University, Frankfurt, and a member of the Berlin-Brandenburg Academy of Science, where he is responsible for the German standard edition of Kant's works. The author of four books, he is also coeditor of the three-volume Kant-Lexikon. Morteza Hajizadeh is a Ph.D. graduate in English from the University of Auckland in New Zealand. His research interests are Cultural Studies; Critical Theory; Environmental History; Medieval (Intellectual) History; Gothic Studies; 18th and 19th Century British Literature.

“The podcast is great, but one thing hasn't been covered yet: humour. It's an essential part of our human condition, and would certainly be worth an episode.”This listener feedback was easy to agree with. From standup comedy to nervous laughter, our lives are filled with chuckles and giggles. Why? Why do adults laugh at witty jokes whilst children laugh at the simple pleasures of peek-a-boo? And why should any of us laugh in the first place?My guest is Mira Magdalena Sickinger. a poet and a philosopher of humour from the University of Vienna.We cover a lot in the discussion: from the social roles of humour, to the politics of joking, and the therapeutic effects of a humorous attitude. In the course of the conversation, we cover the views of many intellectual giants, from Sigmund Freud to Immanuel Kant — and while the conversation includes a handful of silly jokes (be warned), it ends with a deeper reflection on how humour can serve as a window into the human condition itself. FACT CHECKINGNo errors have been found as of now.

Immanuel Kant is undoubtedly the most important philosopher of the modern era. His Critique of Pure Reason, “categorical imperative,” and conception of perpetual peace in the global order decisively influenced both intellectual history and twentieth-century politics, shaping everything from the German Constitution to the United Nations Charter. Renowned philosopher Marcus Willaschek explains why, three centuries after Kant's birth, his reflections on democracy, beauty, nature, morality, and the limits of human knowledge remain so profoundly relevant. Weaving biographical and historical context together with exposition of key ideas, Willaschek emphasizes three central features of Kant's theory and method. First, Kant combines seemingly incompatible positions to show how their insights can be reconciled. Second, he demonstrates that it is not only human thinking that must adjust to the realities of the world; the world must also be fitted to the structures of our thinking. Finally, he overcomes the traditional opposition between thought and action by putting theory at the service of practice.

Stefan Molyneux critiques Immanuel Kant's moral philosophy, focusing on the categorical imperative, and argues it doesn't offer a firm base for morality. He questions why the principle should apply universally and how it works in societal setups, pointing out the risks of taking on flawed moral theories that support oppression. By showing contradictions in Kant's ideas, especially around authority, he stresses that moral theories need to apply the same to everyone. He suggests the true danger comes from ethical breakdowns in systems rather than lone acts of wrongdoing, and promotes Universally Preferable Behavior (UPB) as a way to address that. He pushes for rethinking moral theories to help create a fairer society, noting how misguided moral reasoning can affect public health and ethics.SUBSCRIBE TO ME ON X! https://x.com/StefanMolyneuxFollow me on Youtube! https://www.youtube.com/@freedomain1GET MY NEW BOOK 'PEACEFUL PARENTING', THE INTERACTIVE PEACEFUL PARENTING AI, AND THE FULL AUDIOBOOK!https://peacefulparenting.com/Join the PREMIUM philosophy community on the web for free!Subscribers get 12 HOURS on the "Truth About the French Revolution," multiple interactive multi-lingual philosophy AIs trained on thousands of hours of my material - as well as AIs for Real-Time Relationships, Bitcoin, Peaceful Parenting, and Call-In Shows!You also receive private livestreams, HUNDREDS of exclusive premium shows, early release podcasts, the 22 Part History of Philosophers series and much more!See you soon!https://freedomain.locals.com/support/promo/UPB2025

Immanuel Kant: The Architect of Modern Reason

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit wisdomofcrowds.liveA few years ago, Lea Ypi was scrolling through Facebook when she came across a family photo she had never seen before. Someone had discovered a photograph of Ypi's grandparents on their honeymoon and posted it on a public Facebook group. Ypi — a philosophy professor from Albania who teaches at the London School of Economics — was dismayed by the comments on the photograph, which ranged from inaccurate to judgmental to just plain mean. Were the husband and wife in this photo Albanian aristocrats? Fascist collaborators? Victims of Communism? Responding to the trolls — as well as, as she puts it, “taking the trolls seriously” — Ypi decided to write a book reconstructing her grandparents' story. The result is Indignity: A Life Reimagined, a book which asks, among other things, what does human dignity really mean? What makes this book even more interesting is that Ypi's grandparents lived through some of the most dramatic moments in the twentieth century: the fall of the Ottoman Empire, the rise of Fascism, and World War II. Ypi joins Damir and Santiago, who want to understand Ypi's own philosophical priors. Damir wants to know where moral responsibility ends and and the structural forces of history begin. Santiago asks whether dignity, as a concept, has a metaphysical foundation. The result is a wide-ranging conversation that covers history, literature, philosophy and more.In our bonus section for paid subscribers, Santiago asks Ypi about the difference between Fascist and Communist decision-making; Damir presses Ypi on the question of free will; Ypi discusses her two-point prescription for a better Europe; Santiago asks Ypi whether it's hard to write about one's country in a foreign language; and finally, Ypi's hot take on Zohran Mamdani.Required Reading:* Lea Ypi, Indignity: A Life Reimagined (Amazon). * Lea Ypi, Free: Coming of Age at the End of History (Amazon). * Immanuel Kant, Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals (Amazon). * Friedrich Schiller, On the Aesthetic Education of Man (Amazon).

Professor Kozlowski tackles the preeminent philosopher of Enlightenment philosophy: Immanuel Kant. In this lecture, we'll discuss the basic principles underlying Deontological Ethics (including an explanation of the Categorical Imperative), before moving on to appreciate the wry dark humor and cutting insights of his political essay "Perpetual Peace."Our readings include excerpts from the Fundamental Principles of the Metaphysics of Morals (Or "Groundwork...") and the complete essay "Perpetual Peace."Additional readings this week include a healthy portion of sturm und drang: Goethe's Faust and Schiller's The Robbers, as well as the behemoth of Romantic Political Philosophy: Hegel's The Philosophy of Right. (Proceed with caution - Hegel is not for the faint of heart...) As for today's video game recommendation, we're going with the Gamecube-era JRPG: Tales of Symphonia for its unflinching deontological morality. Take that, Final Fantasy X!If you're interested in Professor Kozlowski's other online projects, check out his website: ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠professorkozlowski.wordpress.com

This show has been flagged as Clean by the host. DJ Hairy Larry Presents Hairy Larry Playing Noumenology From The Archives Of Something Blue 2025-01-12 Thanks Marty, today I'm going to improvise jazz piano on a song inspired by Immanuel Kant. Now Immanuel Kant was an influential philosopher back in the 18th century and he remains influential today. Kant created a dichotomy between phenomenon and noumena where phenomenon applies to things we can perceive with the senses and noumena are things that cannot be perceived. So I wrote this song called "Noumenolgy" about the study of things that cannot be perceived. At first I thought this would be an ideal academic tenure, I mean, who could prove you wrong? But further thought led me to many scientists who deal with noumena on a daily basis. Take cosmology for instance, the study of the origins of the universe. Cosmologists have come up with the idea of the big bang, something that happened about 14 billion years ago. They check how fast the universe is expanding to come up with a number like that. And they keep building bigger and bigger telescopes because the farther away something is the longer it took for it's light to get to us which means we're really looking back into the past when we look at distant galaxies. Well, the big bang is noumenal. I mean, nobody's going to actually perceive it. So you could say that some cosmologists are, in fact, noumenologists. Or take particle physics. String theory, where we look at the stuff that makes protons and electrons, started as a mathematical exercise without proof in the real world. Definitely noumenologically inclined. But those particle physicists kept building bigger and bigger cyclotrons banging atoms together to see what escaped and they started detecting the mathematically predicted sub-particles. I read last week that they discovered a particle that has mass going in one direction and no mass going in the other. Now, how does that work? Moving on from philosophy, cosmology, and physics to noumena that actually affect ordinary people. Songwriters have written more songs about it than any other subject. Stories about it finance the publishing industry allowing them to publish books on philosophy and cosmology. And Jesus preached about it as his core message. Of course, I'm talking about love, something everyone experiences that has no phenomenal existence. You can't see it. You can't touch it. What is love? remains a valid philosophical question. So there we are. Back to Kant. On the song "Noumenology" I scat sing with a bebop and a doowop replacing actual words. So I got to thinking this morning, maybe I should write a lyric? Maybe about a cosmologist and a physicist who fall in love. Or even better a cosmologist and a physicist who bond over their shared their love for noumenology. Which brings us to the big question. Just what is up with Hairy Larry's brain and how does he come up with this stuff? I'm going to reveal my secret. Sometimes it's dreams. And sometimes, in the morning, when I'm not ready to get out of bed, you know what I mean, you've been there, my mind just goes tick tick tick and the next thing you know I've written another podcast. So now, from my "Hairy Larry Livestreams" album, here I am scat singing to "Noumenology".

In today's episode of the Atheist Experience, Secular Rarity and JMike dive into various arguments for belief, including personal, historical, and philosophical claims, challenging callers to define their terms and defend their positions against logical scrutiny and internal contradictions. They also explore the practical applications of critical thinking in constructing a secular moral framework.Marianne in NJ calls in to present personal experience, scientific, and historical evidence for Christianity, focusing on the Bible's supposed singular narrative written over 1500 years by 40 writers. The hosts challenge this idea with the Documentary Hypothesis, noting the Bible's internal contradictions, and quickly identify her reasoning as circular. They question the utility of her "Google this" approach and dismiss her car crash analogy as not representative of the Gospels' discrepancies. Why does the God of the Bible continue to be described as loving when his actions are anything but?Sam in AZ initially seeks to discuss scientific and historic arguments for God, but quickly pivots to advocating for a "general theism" and then the ontological argument. The hosts challenge the coherence of arguing for a God about whom nothing is known, using a "bare designer" analogy to highlight the lack of predictive power in such a vague concept. They press him to provide a specific version of the ontological argument, which he struggles to articulate clearly. What distinguishes a "general theism" from other unsubstantiated claims?  Unable to actually carry on an intelligent conversation, Sam resorts to racial and anti-lgbtq+ slurs before rage quitting, but thanks to the magic of editing, you won't hear the slurs! We did however leave in the hosts justified ridicule of this immature tactic.  You're welcome!Rich in CT questions the Council of Nicaea, believing it's where "the whole Jesus bullshit started" and wonders why it isn't discussed more. Hosts explain that while the Council does not inherently disprove Christianity, its historical context should invite skepticism. They note that many self-professed Christians are not knowledgeable on this history and recommend Bart Ehrman's work for deeper insight. Can historical skepticism lead to a more honest understanding of religious origins?Watcher in PA presents life, love, and goodness as evidence for God. Focusing on "God is love" from 1 Corinthians 13:4, the hosts construct a modus tollens argument, contrasting this definition of love with God's actions in the Bible, such as commanding the slaughter of innocent infants. They highlight the special pleading involved in Watcher's justification of such acts as "judgment," challenging him to admit the contradiction inherent in his definition of love. Does the Bible's portrayal of God align with any consistent definition of love?Lord in CA introduces his secular moral framework called "compression logic," which aims to ethically remove contradictions from systems by focusing on reducing suffering, recognizing all variables, preserving existence, and allowing mobility. The hosts question the foundational basis for these four moral pillars, discussing the long-standing debate between moral realism and anti-realism. They also push for a more precise definition of "collapse" in his framework, differentiating between tangible and conceptual failures, and suggest exploring the works of Immanuel Kant and constructivism. Can a moral framework truly avoid collapse if its foundational principles are not universally accepted or clearly defined?Thank you for joining us this week!

ABOUT Pauline Kleingeld is Professor of Philosophy at the University of Groningen. Earlier she taught at Leiden University and at Washington University in St. Louis. She is the author of Kant and Cosmopolitanism (CUP 2012), Fortschritt und Vernunft: Zur Geschichtsphilosophie Kants (Königshausen und Neumann 1995) and numerous articles. Her academic interests are in ethics and political philosophy, with a special focus on Kant and Kantian theory. ABSTRACT In the first section of his Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals (G1), Immanuel Kant claims to identify the supreme principle of morality. After famous discussions of the idea of a ‘good will', ‘acting from duty' and ‘respect', he concludes that the highest moral principle is the following: ‘I ought never to proceed except in such a way that I could also will that my maxim should become a universal law' (G 4:402). He claims that this principle implicitly governs ordinary moral practices and convictions. It is the ‘supreme' moral principle in that it is a meta-principle by means of which substantive Kantian moral principles — such as ‘help others in need' or ‘never lie' — can be derived. Because Kant's argument draws on moral convictions that are still widely shared, and because his conclusion articulates a paradigmatic position in moral theory, G1 has become one of the most renowned texts in the history of philosophy. The structure of Kant's argument towards the identification of the supreme principle, however, has long been the subject of debate. Three serious difficulties stand out in the literature, and they all concern the most important steps of his argument: (1) Kant presents his argument as consisting of three propositions and a conclusion, but he labels only the second and third propositions as such. He does not make explicit what he takes the first proposition to be. In recent decades at least a dozen candidates have been put forward in the literature (see Steigleder 2022). (2) Kant claims that the third proposition follows from the first and the second, but it is widely regarded unclear how it is supposed to follow. (3) Kant's final step to the formulation of the supreme principle is often said to be a jump over a gap, rather than a careful step that follows from the preceding argument. As a result, Kant's reasoning towards the supreme moral principle seems more like a series of assertions and fragmentary arguments rather than a single argumentative chain. In this paper, I argue that Kant's views on philosophical method shed new light on the structure and direction of his argument in G1. It has gone unnoticed that this argument consists of a chain of regressive inferences. I first explain the current positions in the literature regarding Kant's method in G1 (§2). I then turn to Kant's views on method (§3). Using his description of the so-called ‘analytic method', I reconstruct the argument of G1 as a regressive chain. I argue that this reconstruction suggests solutions to the three main difficulties diagnosed in the literature, although several unclarities remain (§4).

How to find hope in these times? I spoke with political scientist Loren Goldman about the principle of political hope: why we should have hope, how to have hope in dark times, and how political hope differs from naïve optimism, faith in progress, or passive reliance on a hidden logic that will save us in the end. Goldman, who is Associate Professor of Political Science at the University of Pennsylvania, is the author of The Principle of Political Hope (Oxford University Press, 2023), where he reveals hope to be an indispensable aspect of much continental and American political thought, especially in the works of Immanuel Kant, John Dewey, Charles Sanders Peirce, William James, Ernst Bloch, Richard Rorty, and others. Our conversation on Goldman's study of hope ends with three concrete lessons to counter hopelessness, cynicism, and despair. Learn more about your ad choices.

In the shadowy realms of the mind, where nightmares lurk and ancient evils stir, lies the path of Southern Demonology. Our host, JJ, embarks on a captivating journey through the dark corners of demonology, supernatural tales, and the profound depths of the human psyche. In this episode, we delve into the enigmatic world of nightmares, the sublime beauty of terror, and the power of acceptance and love.A Nightmare-Free ParadiseFor years, JJ battled relentless nightmares that haunted his every slumber. These weren't just ordinary dreams; they were harrowing experiences that left him gasping and trembling. In a previous episode, "The Dangers of Dreaming Demonic," JJ recounted his harrowing encounters with infernal entities that inflicted not just fear but physical pain. But then, a miraculous transformation occurred.Equipped with blessed medallions of St. Benedict, JJ found himself in a nightmare-free haven. For the first time in his life, he awoke refreshed and untroubled by the horrors of the night. This newfound peace was a testament to the power of faith and protection. However, the journey wasn't without its challenges. During a trip to Japan, JJ had to remove the medallions due to airport security, but he kept them close, ensuring they still provided their protective magic.From Nightmares to MundanityAs JJ navigated this newfound tranquility, his dreams took a curious turn. The terrifying nightmares that once plagued him were replaced by repetitive and mundane experiences. He likened his dreamscapes to the vast, labyrinthine structures of the Backrooms and the Forever IKEA from internet lore. These dreams, though less terrifying, were far from exciting. They were, as Immanuel Kant might say, the antithesis of the sublime.In his treatise "On the Esthetics of the Beautiful and the Sublime," Kant explores the two categories of the aesthetically pleasing: the beautiful and the sublime. Beauty, for Kant, is akin to a valley filled with flowers and deer grazing, evoking warmth and tranquility. The sublime, on the other hand, is a mountain with a thunderstorm over its peak, inspiring awe and even fear. JJ, with his affinity for the gothic and the terrifying, found himself firmly in the camp of the sublime.The Return of DarknessAfter a year of blissful freedom, JJ's world was once again plunged into darkness.Get access to all of Southern Demonology's episodes, social media links, and even contact JJ by visiting https://www.southerndemonology.com#southerndemonology, #podcast, #demonology, #nightmares, #stbenedict,#immanuelkant, #sublime, #horror, #supernatural, #faith, #protection,#dreams, #terror, #loveandacceptance, #religion, #popefrancis, #ai,#workersrights, #fairwages, #catholicchurch, #backrooms, #foreverikea,#scpl, #horrormovies, #demonization, #hate, #ostracism, #faithandfear,#mindandspirit, #darkcorners, #ancientevils, #humanpsyche,#journeyofdiscovery, #patreonsupport Get bonus content on PatreonSupport this show http://supporter.acast.com/southerndemonology.

De senaste veckorna har vi i podden ägnat oss en del åt Cervantes–Lönsboda-skalan. I ett av prenumerantavsnitten utsågs Immanuel Kant till världshistoriens största Lönsboda-legend.Det kändes inte mer än rimligt att kröna utmärkelsen med ett puttrigt avsnitt om Kant. Han är en av världshistoriens största och viktigaste namn. Men märkligt nog är det nästan mer intressant att läsa och prata om hans inrutade och småborgerliga liv i Ostpreussens pärla Königsberg.Dagens avsnitt handlar om vad kunskap egentligen är, men också om den stora fröjden i att röra sin egen senap till torsken. Och sedan skvallra.—Läslista:Fredriksson, Gunnar, 20 filosofer, Norstedt, Stockholm, 1994Högnäs, Sten (2019). Idéernas historia: en översikt.

This is a free preview of a paid episode. To hear more, visit wisdomofcrowds.liveThis episode is a bit “meta”: it's about what it means to keep an open mind, how to trust your conscience, why we should all avoid groupthink, and the phenomenon of “self silencing” — keeping your views to yourself when you're afraid it might be too costly to say them out loud. But of course, this being Wisdom of Crowds, we link these meta-topics to the politics of the day. Jenara Nerenberg is a journalist, producer, speaker, and founder of the Neurodiversity Project, which hosts bestselling authors in the arts and sciences who push for “innovation in research and media.” In her work, Jenara applies insights from psychology and public health to question of free speech and the exchange of ideas. Her new book is titled, Trust Your Mind: Embracing Nuance in a World of Self Silencing. You can see why we are excited to have her on Wisdom of Crowds.“I don't think that self silencing is inherently bad,” Jenara says, “but I think that we want everyone to be empowered to know that many people are conditioned to fall into self silencing and they're not doing it consciously.” The goal is to help people become free thinkers. Instead, groupthink and ideology are the default for many people, because “people who are high in self uncertainty are drawn into something with clear boundaries and sense of belonging.” But if you want to think freely, you have to do the work.Shadi Hamid brings up politics. Where we wrong to focus so much on cancel culture on the Left, given the recent suppression of free speech on the Right? “Right has no respect for free speech, they were pretending,” Shadi says. “It was a pretext, they used the language of free speech as a cudgel.” Samuel Kimbriel agrees that the Right is using “the power of the sword” to suppress speech.Apart from the necessary political protection of speech, however, Jenara argues that free speech requires a particular disposition of personal character: “My book and my thinking are really about how do we see each other as human again? And that's where we went wrong with this sort of excessive focus on labels and categories and check boxes.”In our bonus section for paid subscribers, Jenara talks about whether it's possible to be emotionally attached to the principle of freedom of free speech and open inquiry (as opposed to a particular point of view); Sam discusses “infinite proceduralism” and why we need to accept the truth once it's been identified; Jenara talks about growing up in a very unique San Francisco “bubble”; Shadi ponders when it is appropriate to cut people off whose opinions disturb you; and Jenara discusses gendered conversations and people-pleasing.Required Reading:* Jenara's book, Trust Your Mind: Embracing Nuance in a World of Self-Silencing (Amazon). * Jenara's initiative, the Neurodiversity Project (divergentlit).* “A Letter for Justice and Open Debate” (Harper's).* “ ‘Have the courage to use your own understanding,' is therefore the motto of the Enlightenment.” Immanuel Kant, “What is Enlightenment?” (Columbia).* Agnes Callard on keeping an open mind (New York Times). * Voltaire on free speech (The Guardian). * Ross Barkan, “How Anti-Woke Went Intellectually Bankrupt” (New York).* About Darryl Davis: “How One Man Convinced 200 Ku Klux Klan Members To Give Up Their Robes” (NPR).This post is part of our collaboration with the University of Pittsburgh's Center for Governance and Markets.Free preview video:Full video for paid subscribers below:

“Travel does not require leaving your city or state or country, but it does require leaving your comfort zone. And that can happen a block or two away from where you live.” –Chloe Cooper Jones In this episode of Deviate, Rolf and Chloe talk about why a section about “slum tourism” was cut out of Rolf’s newest book The Vagabond’s Way (2:30); how so much of what we talk about when we talk about travel has industrialized middle-class presumptions (7:30); the motivations and ethical considerations that underpin seeking out disadvantaged neighborhoods as a traveler (15:00); how preconceived narratives and “cultural extraction” often motivates people’s experience in a city, in ways that do not always benefit the city (25:00); what “dark tourism” and “voluntourism” are, and what the ethical ramifications are for travelers (32:00); and the difference between articulating ideals, and the work of acting on those ideals (45:00).

In this episode of The Mona Charen Podcast, Mona Charen speaks with author Jonathan Rauch about his new book, Cross Purposes: Christianity's Broken Bargain with Democracy. They explore the decline of Christianity in America, its impact on democracy, and whether faith can be depoliticized. Rauch, a self-described “atheistic homosexual Jew,” makes the case that Christianity has been a vital “load-bearing wall” for American democracy and argues for a return to its core principles. The conversation touches on political polarization, the role of faith in public life, and what small-l liberals and conservatives alike can learn from the evolving role of religion in society.
