About 300 kilometers west, away from the crowd and the noise of the capital city of Kyiv lies the historic and picturesque town of Berdychiv. 西部约300公里,远离人群,而首都基夫的噪音是历史悠久的风景如画的伯迪奇镇。It is a place where the sound of birds singing blends with the morning mist at sunrise. Nobody hurries here. Life goes on in Berdychiv. 在这里,鸟类的声音与日出时的早晨薄雾融为一体。 没有人在这里招募。 生活在贝迪奇夫(Berdychiv)继续。 The town in northern Ukraine was founded in 1430. It is a place where three world cultures, Polish, Ukrainian and Jewish, meet and are preserved. 乌克兰北部的小镇成立于1430年。在这里,三种世界文化,波兰,乌克兰和犹太人,见面并得到了保存。 Britannica Dictionary says the town started as a Lithuanian fortress before turning into a Polish city from 1569 until 1793. At one point, it was the fourth-largest city in Ukraine with a large Jewish population. 大不列颠词典说,该镇是立陶宛要塞开始的,然后从1569年至1793年变成了波兰城市。在某一时刻,它是乌克兰的第四大城市,拥有大量的犹太人人口。 Overlooking the Hnylopiat River is the ancient monastery fortress of the Barefoot Carmelites, known as the Sanctuary of the Mother of God of the Holy Scapular. The complex was built in the 16th century by the Janusz Tyszkiewicz family. The Internet Encyclopedia of Ukraine says the complex, along with a school and publishing house, turned the city into an important Polish religious center. 俯瞰着hnylopiat河是赤脚卡梅利特人的古老修道院堡垒,被称为圣肩cap骨的母亲的圣所。 该综合大楼是由Janusz Tyszkiewicz家族于16世纪建造的。 乌克兰的互联网百科全书说,该综合大楼以及一所学校和出版社将这座城市变成了重要的波兰宗教中心。 The complex is popular with visitors who take pictures of its magnificent buildings and lifelong residents who take part in life ceremonies like weddings and graduations. 该建筑群在游客中很受欢迎,他们为其宏伟的建筑物和终身居民拍照,他们参加了婚礼和毕业典礼等生活仪式。 Across the Catholic church in the same complex is a museum to celebrate the life of Joseph Conrad. The English writer was born in 1857 in Berdychiv to a family of Polish patriots who fought against Russian rule. They were arrested and exiled to northern Russia where Conrad first learned English at the age of four. Conrad left Russia and traveled the world as a mariner before starting his writing career. 在同一个综合大楼的整个天主教会上,都是庆祝约瑟夫·康拉德(Joseph Conrad)生活的博物馆。 这位英国作家于1857年出生在贝迪奇夫(Berdychiv),是一群反对俄罗斯统治的波兰爱国者。 他们被捕并流放到北部俄罗斯北部,康拉德在四岁时首次学习英语。 康拉德(Conrad)离开俄罗斯,在开始写作生涯之前以水手身份旅行。 Down a narrow path near the complex is an old building on the river banks. It is an art school where Ukrainians study to become designers, artists, and photographers. It is a place where many modern Ukrainian artists come from and a place filled with great works of art. 在综合大楼附近的一条狭窄小路上是河岸上的一栋古老建筑。 这是一所艺术学校,乌克兰人研究成为设计师,艺术家和摄影师。 在这里,许多现代乌克兰艺术家来自这里,也是一个充满艺术品的地方。 In the city center is an art installation: Suit from Berdychiv. Here visitors often take pictures, eat pizza, and sit in a café with a view of the center. Not far from the city center is the Berdychiv Historical Museum. Founded in 1926, the museum has a collection of valuable fabrics and paintings. 在市中心是艺术装置:贝迪奇夫的西装。 在这里,游客经常拍照,吃披萨,坐在咖啡馆里,可以欣赏中心的景色。 距市中心不远的是Berdychiv历史博物馆。 该博物馆成立于1926年,有一系列有价值的面料和绘画。 Berdychiv is known for one event related to the world of literature. The well-known French writer Honoré de Balzac married Éveline Hanska, a Polish countess, in 1850 in St. Barbara's Church after an 18-year courtship.Berdychiv以与文学世界有关的一个事件而闻名。 著名的法国作家HonoréDeBalzac于1850年在圣巴巴拉教堂(St. Barbara's Church)与波兰伯爵夫人的ÉvelineHanska结婚,经过18年的求爱。 Some believe they chose the church for its beauty and history in a city of writers, and a city of love and culture. 有些人认为,他们在一个作家之城和一个爱与文化之城中选择了教会的美丽和历史。

Jesus prayed, “I speak these things in the world so that they may have my joy made complete in themselves” (Jn. 17). Acts 1:15-17, 21-26 Psalm 1 1 John 5:9-13 John 17:6-19 Friendship According to Aristotle and Jesus 1. “We seek one mystery, God, with another mystery, ourselves. We are mysterious to ourselves because God's mystery is in us.” [i] Gary Wills wrote these words about the impossibility of fully comprehending God. Still, we can draw closer to the Holy One. I am grateful for friends who help me see our Father in new ways. This week my friend Norwood Pratt sent me an article which begins with a poem by Li Bai (701-762). According to legend he died in the year 762 drunkenly trying to embrace the moon's reflection in the Yangtze River. Li Bai writes, “The birds have vanished from the sky. / Now the last cloud drains away // We sit together, the mountain and me, / until only the mountain remains.” [ii] For me this expresses the feeling of unity with God that comes to me in prayer. This poet was one of many inspirations for a modern Chinese American poet named Li-Young Lee (1957-). Lee's father immigrated to the United States and served as a Presbyterian pastor at an all-white church in western Pennsylvania. Lee feels fascinated by infinity and eternity. He writes this poem about the “Ultimate Being, Tao or God” as the beloved one, the darling. Each of us in the uniqueness of our nature and experience has a different experience of holiness. He writes, “My friend and I are in love with the same woman… I'd write a song about her. I wish I could sing. I'd sing about her. / I wish I could write a poem. / Every line would be about her. / Instead, I listen to my friend speak / about this woman we both love, / and I think of all the ways she is unlike / anything he says about her and unlike / everything else in the world.” [iii] These two poets write about something that cannot easily be expressed, our deepest desire to be united with God. Jesus also speaks about this in the Gospel of John, in his last instructions to the disciples and then in his passionate prayer for them, and for us. In his last words Jesus describes the mystery of God and our existence using a surprising metaphor. At the center of all things lies our experience of friendship. On Mother's Day when we celebrate the sacrifices associated with love I want to think more with you about friendship and God. To understand the uniqueness of Jesus' teaching, it helps to see how another great historical thinker understood this subject. 2. Long before Jesus' birth the Greek philosopher Aristotle (384-322 BC) studied at Plato's school in Athens (from the age of 17 to 37). After this Aristotle became the tutor of Alexander the Great and founded a prominent library that he used as the basis for his thought. Scholars estimate that about a third of what Aristotle wrote has survived. He had a huge effect on the western understanding of nature. He also especially influenced the thirteenth century theologian Thomas Aquinas (1225-1274) and therefore modern Roman Catholic approaches to Christian thought. For Aristotle God is eternal, non-material, unchanging and perfect. He famously describes God as the unmoved mover existing outside of the world and setting it into motion. Because everything seeks divine perfection this God is responsible for all change that continues to happen in the universe. We experience a world of particular things but God knows the universal ideas behind them (or before them). For Aristotle God is pure thought, eternally contemplating himself. God is the telos, the goal or end of all things. [iv] Aristotle begins his book Nicomachean Ethics by observing that “Happiness… is the End at which all actions aim.” [v] Everything we do ultimately can be traced back to our desire for happiness and the purpose of Aristotle's book is to help the reader to attain this goal. Happiness comes from having particular virtues, that is habitual ways of acting and seeking pleasure. These include: courage, temperance, generosity, patience. In our interactions with others we use social virtues including: amiability, sincerity, wit. Justice is the overarching virtue that encompasses all the others. Aristotle writes that there are three kinds of friendships. The first is based on usefulness, the second on pleasure. Because these are based on superficial qualities they generally do not last long. The final and best form of friendship for him is based on strength of character. These friends do not love each other for what they can gain but because they admire each other's character. Aristotle believes that this almost always this happens between equals although sometimes one sees it in the relation between fathers and sons (I take this to mean between parents and children). Famous for describing human beings as the political animal, Aristotle points out that we can only accomplish great things through cooperation. Institutions and every human group rely on friendly feelings to be effective. Friendship is key to what makes human beings effective, and for that matter, human. Finally, Aristotle believes that although each person should be self-sufficient, friendship is important for a good life. 3. The Greek word for Gospel, that particular form of literature which tells the story of Jesus, is euangelion. We might forget that this word means good news until we get a sense for the far more radical picture of God and friendship that Jesus teaches. For me, one of the defining and unique features of Christianity as a religion comes from Jesus' insistence that our relation to God is like a child to a loving father. Jesus teaches us to pray, “Our Father who art in heaven.” Jesus clarifies this picture of God in his story of the Prodigal Son who goes away and squanders his wealth in a kind of first century Las Vegas. In the son's destitution he returns home and as he crests the hill, his father “filled with compassion,” hikes up his robes and runs to hug and kiss him. Jesus does not just use words but physical gestures to show what a friend is. In today's gospel Jesus washes his friends' feet before eats his last meal with them. The King James Version says, “there was leaning on Jesus' bosom one of his disciples, whom Jesus loved” (Jn. 13:23). [vi] Imagine Jesus, in the actual embrace of his beloved friend, telling us who God is. Jesus explicitly says I do not call you servants but friends (Jn. 15). A servant does not know what the master is doing but a friend does. And you know that the greatest commandment is to love one another. Later in prayer he begs God to protect us from the world, “so that [we] may have [his] joy made complete in [ourselves]” (Jn. 17). 4. Gregory of Nyssa (c. 332-395) was born ten years after the First Council of Nicaea and attended the First Council of Constantinople. He writes about how so many ordinary people were arguing about doctrine, “If in this city you ask anyone for change, he will discuss with you whether the Son was begotten or unbegotten. If you ask about the quality of the bread you will receive the answer, “The father is the greater and the Son is lesser.' If you suggest a bath is desirable you will be told, ‘There was nothing before the Son was created.'” [vii] Gregory with his friends Basil and Gregory Nazianzus wondered what description of Jesus would lead to faith rather than just argument. [viii] Gregory of Nyssa came to believe that the image of God is only fully displayed when every human person is included. [ix] In his final book Life of Moses Gregory responds to a letter from a younger friend who seeks counsel on “the perfect life.” [x] Gregory writes that Moses exemplifies this more than all others because Moses is a friend to God. True perfection is not bargaining with, pleading, tricking, manipulating, fearing God. It is not avoiding a wicked life out of fear of punishment. It is not to do good because we hope for some reward, as if we are cashing in on the virtuous life through a business contract. Gregory closes with these words to his young admirer, “we regard falling from God's friendship as the only dreadful thing… and we consider becoming God's friend the only thing worthy of honor and desire. This… is the perfection of life. As your understanding is lifted up to what is magnificent and divine, whatever you may find… will certainly be for the common benefit in Christ Jesus.” [xi] On Thursday night I was speaking to Paul Fromberg the Rector of St. Gregory's church about this and he mentioned a sophisticated woman who became a Christian in his church. In short she moved from Aristotle's view of friendship among superior equals to Jesus' view. She said, “Because I go to church I can have real affection for people who annoy the shit out of me. My affection is no longer just based on affinity.” [xii] 5. I have been thoroughly transformed by Jesus' idea of friendship. My life has become full of Jesus' friends, full of people who I never would have met had I followed Aristotle's advice. Together we know that in Christ unity does not have to mean uniformity. Before I close let me tell you about one person who I met at Christ Church in Los Altos. Even by the time I met her Alice Larse was only a few years away from being a great-grandmother. She and her husband George had grown up together in Washington State. He had been an engineer and she nursed him through his death from Alzheimer's disease. Some of my favorite memories come from the frequent summer pool parties she would have for our youth groups. She must have been in her sixties when she started a “Alice's Stick Cookies Company.” Heidi and I saw them in a store last week! At Christ Church we had a rotating homeless shelter and there were several times when Alice, as a widow living by herself, had various guests stay at her house. When the church was divided about whether or not to start a school she quickly volunteered to serve as senior warden. She was not sentimental. She was thoroughly practical. She was humble. She got things done… but with a great sense of humor. There was no outward indication that she was really a saint. I missed her funeral two weeks ago because of responsibilities here. I never really had the chance to say goodbye but I know that one day we will be together in God. Grace Cathedral has hundreds of saints just like her who I have learned to love in a similar way. Ram Dass was a dear friend of our former Dean Alan Jones. He used to say, “The name of the game we are in is called ‘Being at one with the Beloved.' [xiii] The Medieval mystic Julian of Norwich writes that God possesses, “a love-longing to have us all together, wholly in himself for his delight; for we are not now wholly in him as we shall be…” She says that you and I are Jesus' joy and bliss. [xiv] We seek one mystery, God, with another mystery, ourselves. We are mysterious to ourselves because God's mystery is in us.” [xv] In a world where friendship can seem to be only for utility or pleasure I pray that like Jesus, you will be blessed with many friends, that you find perfection of life and even become friends with God.

This article quotes, “The Invention of the Darling.” https://www.poetryfoundation.org/articles/162572/theres-nothing-in-the-world-smaller-than-the-universe [iv] More from the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy: “Aristotle made God passively responsible for change in the world in the sense that all things seek divine perfection. God imbues all things with order and purpose, both of which can be discovered and point to his (or its) divine existence. From those contingent things we come to know universals, whereas God knows universals prior to their existence in things. God, the highest being (though not a loving being), engages in perfect contemplation of the most worthy object, which is himself. He is thus unaware of the world and cares nothing for it, being an unmoved mover. God as pure form is wholly immaterial, and as perfect he is unchanging since he cannot become more perfect. This perfect and immutable God is therefore the apex of being and knowledge. God must be eternal. That is because time is eternal, and since there can be no time without change, change must be eternal. And for change to be eternal the cause of change-the unmoved mover-must also be eternal. To be eternal God must also be immaterial since only immaterial things are immune from change. Additionally, as an immaterial being, God is not extended in space.” https://iep.utm.edu/god-west/ [v] Aristotle, Nicomachean Ethics, trans. H. Rackham, Loeb Classical Library vol.

For the image …extends equally to all the race. …The Image of God, which we behold in universal humanity, had its consummation then. …He saw, Who knows all things even before they be, comprehending them in His knowledge, how great in number humanity will be in the sum of its individuals. …For when …the full complement of human nature has reached the limit of the pre-determined measure, because there is no longer anything to be made up in the way of increase to the number of souls, [Paul] teaches us that the change in existing things will take place in an instant of time.

Predstavte si, že ráno otvoríte noviny a hneď na titulke čítate: "Gándi bol brutálnejší ako Hitler". Zhrozený otočíte strany a čítate: "Ľudstvo je OK, ale 99 % ľudí sú nudní" a na otázku "Čo vás deprimuje?" odpovedá autor novinového rozhovoru: "Vidieť hlúpych ľudí šťastných." ----more---- Už takmer zatvárate noviny, ale zvedavosť vám nedá, listujete očami ďalej a zrazu vás rozrozmýšľajú tieto výroky. Prvý: "Cítime sa slobodní, pretože nám chýba jazyk, ktorým by sme vyjadrili svoju neslobodu." Druhý: "Šťastie nebolo nikdy dôležité. Problémom je, že nevieme, čo naozaj chceme. To, čo nás robí šťastnými, nie je dostať to, čo chceme. Ale snívať o tom." A po tretie: "Film je ultimatne zvrhlé umenie. Nedáva vám to, po čom túžite - hovorí vám, ako túžiť." Po prvotnom pohoršení a druhotnom rozrozmýšľaní sa možno pýtate, kto je autorom týchto provokatívnych vyjadrení a nie je ním nikto iný ako súčasný slovinský filozof Slavoj Žižek. Dnes vám predstavím jeho netradičný avantgardný spôsob filozofovania a v závere sa zastavíme pri otázke, či by sme nemohli považovať za novodobého Sokrata.

The HPS Podcast - Conversations from History, Philosophy and Social Studies of Science
This episode features Caleb Hazelwood, philosopher of science and PhD candidate, talking on the topic of Scientific Metaphysics. As Caleb explains, ‘scientific metaphysics' refers to coming to grips with what ‘really is' in the world – and being crystal clear about the concepts we use to describe natural phenomena and how they interact. For example, Caleb talks about the importance of differentiating between entities we consider stable across the universe – such as the elements – compared with more space-bound entities – such as biological species.While exploring such fundamental questions may appear difficult and abstract, Caleb does a wonderful job in showing how debates such as these provide for fruitful interactions between scientific practice and philosophical reasoning.

In this episode we do a case study of someone who wove together a number of the themes we have talked about in earlier episodes, including the importance of a commitment to truth and the life of the mind, being a part of a vibrant faith community, dealing with challenges, and being faithful to God's call. These lessons from the life of philosopher Edmund Husserl, as well as some of his philosophical insights, provide great encouragement and challenge for Christians today. In this podcast, we discuss: Who Edmund Husserl is and why his work matters to Christians. How others helped Husserl, JP, Stan, and Jordan in their journeys. How commitment to the truth lead us to be counter-cultural. How we can be faithful through lonely and challenging times. Unexpected ways God uses the seeds we plant to bring Him glory. How Husserl's philosophical insights help shape our understanding of what is true, good, and beautiful.

Oto jedno z największych pytań w historii filozofii: czym są pojęcia ogólne? Kiedy na przykład mówimy o krześle – nie żadnym konkretnym, tylko w ogóle jakimś, to o czym tak naprawdę mówimy? A co z pojęciami, które zawsze są abstrakcyjne – np. miłość, wiedza, życie? Czym są obiekty matematyczne, takie jak liczba 3 lub trójkąt równoboczny? To jest właśnie tzw. spór o uniwersalia, jeden z największych problemów metafizyki. W tym odcinku przyjrzymy się jego głównym stanowiskom.

Nepozornosť je asi univerzálnou ľudskou skúsenosťou. Od malého mala sme boli upozorňovaní, aby sme dávali pozor – či už vtedy, keď nám niečo vysvetľovanie rodičia alebo učitelia; alebo tesne pred tým, ako sme začali hrať nejakú novú hru. Ak nedám pozor, nebudem vedieť pravidlá, a potom nebudem vedieť samozrejme zvíťaziť.----more---- Otázka pozornosti je ale hlboko morálna, ba priam až psychologicko-duchovná záležitosť, a okrem samotného bytia pozorným je tu ešte dôležitejšie otázka, ktorá znie nasledovne: Čomu dať našu pozornosť? A túto otázku môžeme rozbiť pod-otázkami ako: Sú veci, ktoré si zasluhujú našu pozornosť viac ako iné? Sú veci, ktorým by mal venovať pozornosť každý a to až do takej miery, že ak ich nebudeme brať aktívne na vedomie, stanú sa z nás morálne nižší ľudia? A akej povahu sú tie tzv. veci, voči ktorým, ak budeme nepozorní, riskujeme, že niečo v našom vnútri pomaly odumrie alebo, naopak, nikdy nevyrastie a nevykvitne? Tieto otázky sú v jadre filozofie francúzskej mysliteľky a aktivistky Simone Weilovej a v dnešnej dávke si ju ako aj jej dielo predstavíme. Pôjde ale o neľahké až existenciálne rozmýšľanie, pretože pandémia nepozornosti, ktorou dnes trpíme, má za následok tragickú skutočnosť, že ničíme živote ľudí okolo nás (a tiež svoje) a to tým, že sami zo seba a druhých robíme veci – inštrumentalizujeme a dehumanizujeme.

At 0815 on the morning of August 6th, 1945, an atomic bomb known as ‘Little Boy' was released by Bombardier Thomas Ferebee above the Japanese city of Hiroshima. What followed was a new type of destruction never before visited upon humanity. Buildings burned, Japanese citizens ambled about in confused terror and pain, and radiation began its deadly work. Join us for the first episode of Hardtack as we explore the seemingly peaceful moments before the bomb dropped, and the immediate aftermath as told through some of the survivors of this tragic event.

♥ Tu étais le seul qui n'a pas abandonné jusqu'à ce qu'il ait conquis mon cœur et la chose la plus mignonne de toutes est que tu continues à le faire tous les jours. Joyeuse Saint-Valentin, mon amour! ♥ A tes côtés je me sens la femme la plus heureuse du monde et je me rends compte que mon cœur était rempli d'un amour pour toi qui grandit et s'approfondit. Félicitations pour notre journée! ♥ Toi seul as le pouvoir de me faire sentir que je peux flotter dans les airs et avec chacun de tes baisers tu me fais toucher le ciel. Joyeuse Saint-Valentin 2022, ma vie! ♥ Cette journée est parfaite pour te montrer à quel point je t'aime, être à tes côtés et te rendre si heureux. Profitons d'une belle Saint-Valentin! " ♥ Si nos chemins se croisent par coïncidence ce n'est pas grave, je sais juste que je t'aime de toute la force de mon cœur et que je t'aimerai pour toujours. L'amour. Le grand, le vrai, celui avec un grand A. L'amour qui transcende, secoue, désarçonne et transporte. Cet amour véritable qui, depuis toujours, a nourri les artistes, de l'écrivain(e) au peintre, du/de la cinéaste au/à la musicien(ne). Et bien que personne ne remette son existence en cause, la notion du « vrai amour » reste ardue à définir. Car rien n'est plus personnel que le sentiment amoureux. Dans ce contexte, difficile donc de vous donner une signification de l'amour vrai, claire et objective. À la place, voici la définition - très personnelle - d'hommes et de femmes qui l'ont expérimenté. L'amour vrai et sincère, qui résiste au temps Pour Emma, architecte bordelaise, le vrai amour, c'est celui qui résiste au temps. Celui qui ne s'explique pas, mais qui chamboule tout sur son passage. « J'ai vécu une relation en pointillé pendant toute ma vingtaine. Lorsque je l'ai rencontré, j'étais en couple. J'ai eu une aventure avec lui, ai sérieusement songé à quitter mon compagnon de l'époque mais suis finalement restée, par crainte de faire une erreur. J'ai coupé les ponts et nous nous sommes retrouvés deux ans plus tard. Cette fois-ci les rôles s'étaient inversés : j'étais célibataire, il était en couple. La situation s'est répétée, puis c'est lui qui a, cette fois-ci, coupé les ponts. Puis, deux ans plus tard, l'histoire se répète à nouveau. Nous sommes alors tous les deux en couple. Il me propose de tout quitter pour partir avec lui. J'ai très sérieusement songé à le suivre, mais je n'ai pas eu le courage de renoncer à mon quotidien, mon confort. Il est aujourd'hui marié. Malgré tout, une partie de moi ne peut s'empêcher de penser qu'on finira un jour par se (re)trouver. Entre nous, c'est un amour qui ne s'explique pas, qui résiste au temps, à l'absence de l'autre. Et qui est toujours aussi fort quand on se retrouve, même après des années de silence. » Le véritable amour existe Marta, institutrice de 36 ans, estime que le vrai amour, c'est celui qui tient bon face aux difficultés de la vie. https://lesen.amazon.de/kp/embed?asin=B07DHTHDGG&preview=newtab&linkCode=kpe&ref_=cm_sw_r_kb_dp_9HM6ACQRTCMNYG4324V3&tag=storeup09-20 ☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆☆ https://linktr.ee/jacksonlibon ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- #facebook #instagram #amour #couple #couplegoals #famille #relation #doudou #TotalEnergiesAFCON2022 #TeamTunisia #CAN2021 $BTC $ETH #cryptocurrency #Bitcoin #Ethereum #Avalanche#altcoins #Crypto #NFTs #Avalanche #innovation #CryptocurrencyNews #cashback #YieldFarming #TotalEnergiesAFCON2021 #TeamMali #TUNMLI #teamegypt #afcon2021 #TeamCameroon #youtube #twitter #tiktok #love #reeĺs #shorts #instagood #follow #like #ouy #oyu #babyshark #lilnasx #girl #happybirthday #movie #olive #garden #menu #deviance #autotrader #trading #khan #academy #carter #carguru #ancestry #accords #abc #news #bts #cbs #huru bluebook #socialmedia #whatsapp #music #google #photography #memes #marketing #india #followforfollowback #likeforlikes #a #insta #fashion #k #trending #digitalmarketing #covid #o #snapchat #socialmediamarketing
Alasdair MacIntyre. Škótsky morálny filozof, ktorý patrí k jedným z najvplyvnejších etikov druhej polovice minulé storočia a taktiež storočia súčasného. Minulý mesiac oslávil svoje 93. narodeniny a dnes vám chcem priblížiť jednu z jeho známym a vplyvných myšlienok, teda jeho chápanie racionality, ktoré je doslova proti-osvietenské.----more---- Racionalita nie je abstraktne objektívna až neosobná, ale viaže sa podľa neho nevyhnutne na živú tradíciu ľudských komunít a príbehy a texty, ktoré tieto tradície tvoria. Racionalita je tak životopisom ľudstva a ľudských spoločenstiev. ERRATUM: v 13:15 mylne zaznelo, že podľa MacIntyra sú racionalita a komunita ľudí využívajúca racionalitu "od seba nezávislé". V textovej podobe dávky je to správne, a teda že sú "na sebe závislé". Prečítajte si túto dávku ako článok na SME.

Episode discussion topics Stoicism? Really? Why you may wonder? It holds valuable timeless wisdom from our ancient ancestors. Being a human is pretty much a universal struggle for all humans throughout time. Who would have thought? It provides practical steps and methods for being a better, less anxious, and happier human. It aims to provide tools for you to become the best version of yourself based on your own measure. Practicing the methods will make you a better citizen of our republic. How does self-rule translate into the economy? How do we leave behind the concrete plantation that was built by the owners of the system? So what is it? A fad diet? A religion? Where did it come from? Do I need to attend a church or go to meetings? According to the College of Stoic Philosophers is a complete philosophy informed by an integrated system of Logic, Physics, and Ethics. The ethics part helps it feel like religion - guidance on making decisions and physics as the nexus of all things, and logic helps you in the process of considering things. It's a philosophy all about being human and more specifically about you being you and having agency in a world outside of your control. During its heydays, it was a religion with ideas originating back in Greece circa Socrates. Actually, it was a lot more than what religion is today because it included other areas like cosmology, physics, psychology, and of course philosophy. We must note that much of what the Greeks taught had come from other peoples and times before them. We just don't have a lot of records today. It lived on through many thousands of years from Greece to the Romans who picked it up after. No church nor extraordinary socializing is required for you to study and practice this philosophy. It's practical as you are and where you are right now with whoever is normally in your life. No change, unless you seek it out. The meditation, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, and other mental health practices of our modern time draw from ancient stoic wisdom and you will notice more of it as you study it. But this practice is arguably beyond those in the capacity for it to affect your life in a positive way. For perspective, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy is good for treating symptoms of mental health conditions (fear, anger, foreboding, self-loathing, etc.), but practicing Stoicism will help remove the disease from your life thus reducing or eliminating symptoms altogether. Why is it called Stoicism? It got named from the Greek word stoa, which was a covered open area where Zeno (last name), the attributed founding father of "Stoicism", began his public lectures. Zeno was calling it something else, but the people called it based on the building, and alas we have Stoics practicing Stoicism. So what's this thing all about? Stoicism is a set of ancient practices born out of our ancestors' struggle with the human condition. Most of all the teachings and writings have been lost to destruction, from Alexandria to the fall of Rome. What we have are journals and accounts from a small number of philosophers who documented accounts of stoic thinking. They range from Greece to Rome in time and space and life experiences ranging from a former slave to an emperor and many in-between, all stoics. They all struggled in ways that Stoicism helped them overcome. Our struggles are remarkably similar to theirs. This system works for our lives too. There are many flavors of this thing because each of us makes it our own. This is why the writings from the ancients are used as a stable foundation of reference, like a Tora, Bible, Koran, or other, for learning and growing the philosophy. How might it help me better myself and my community? It offers practical guidelines for you to implement in your life in your way. You do you. With practice it can become useful for anyone's situations in life, it's that's flexible. It consists of concepts around how to apply a set of virtues and disciplines in making decisions about things that are under your control. We learn about how they operate through understanding the wisdom we've received from the ancients, through their stories, experiences, and even their thoughts in letters and in journals. A practicing stoic is always challenging themselves to be a better person to themselves and to others. The philosophy teaches that the natural and happy state for humans to be in is a cooperative one. Here are some quotes from Emperor Marcus Aurelius' Meditations: “The happiness of your life depends upon the quality of your thoughts.” “Everything we hear is an opinion, not a fact. Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.” “Waste no more time arguing about what a good man should be. Be one.” Some quotes from Lucius Annaeus Seneca, a Roman philosopher, statesman, orator, and tragedian, who lived during the time of Christ: "Religion is regarded by the common people as true, by the wise as false, and by rulers as useful." "As is a tale (story), so is life: not how long it is, but how good it is, is what matters." "Hang on to your youthful enthusiasms -- you'll be able to use them better when you're older." "If a man knows not to which port he sails, no wind is favorable." Some quotes from Epictetus, who was born as a slave to a master that allowed schooling so that when he earned his freedom, he become a philosopher: "There is only one way to happiness and that is to cease worrying about things which are beyond the power of our will." "If anyone tells you that a certain person speaks ill of you, do not make excuses about what is said of you but answer, "He was ignorant of my other faults, else he would not have mentioned these alone." "It's not what happens to you, but how you react to it that matters." "Any person capable of angering you becomes your master..." "The key is to keep company only with people who uplift you, whose presence calls forth your best." "He who laughs at himself never runs out of things to laugh at." Calls to Action: Get wiser - there are a few resources you can explore on your own. This is not a complete list, just some onramps that seemed more accessible to us as we also begin our journey down this rabbit hole. Stoic Coffee Break podcast and website.

We discuss the metaphysical views of pessimist philosopher Arthur Schopenhauer, as elaborated in his magnum opus, The World as Will and Representation. Schopenhauer developed a fascinating dual-aspect monism, according to which from outside, the world appears as representation, but from inside, it appears as will: ontological monism and epistemological dualism. To Schopenhauer, desire-driven will is what we are from inside, and he goes on to argue that we should think of the underlying reality of all appearance in the same way. You represent my will as a body, but I know that there’s an underlying reality to your representation that’s experiential in character. Schopenhauer thinks the basis of this dual-aspect character of reality pervades the natural world, organic and inorganic. Why? Because this is our only form of insight into—or acquaintance with—anything as a thing in itself. “[O]n the path of objective knowledge, thus starting from the representation, we shall never get beyond the representation, i.e., the phenomenon. We shall therefore remain at the outside of things; we shall never be able to penetrate into their inner nature, and investigate what they are in themselves…So far, I agree with Kant. But … we ourselves are the thing-in-itself. Consequently, a way from within stands open to us to that real inner nature of things to which we cannot penetrate from without. It is, so to speak, a subterranean passage, a secret alliance, which, as if by treachery, places us all at once in the fortress that could not be taken by attack from without.” - Schopenhauer Schopenhauer on Will and Representation - Academy of Ideas (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zNDw9lO8uKg) [YouTube] Peter Sjöstedt-H - Noumenautics: Metaphysics - Meta-Ethics - Psychedelics (https://www.amazon.com/Noumenautics-Metaphysics-Psychedelics-Peter-Sjostedt-H/dp/0992808855) [Amazon] Schopenhauer and the Philosophy of Mind - Peter Sjöstedt-H (http://www.philosopher.eu/texts/schopenhauer-and-the-philosophy-of-mind/) [Philosopher.eu] Hedda Hassel Mørch - Argument for Panpsychism from Experience of Causation (https://philpapers.org/rec/MRCTAF) [PDF] Nietzsche’s Metaphysics? - Galen Strawson (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DoNKiM968cU) [YouTube] Idealism - Schopenhauer (https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/idealism/#Scho) [Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy] Arthur Schopenhauer (https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/schopenhauer/) [SEP] Arthur Schopenhauer (https://iep.utm.edu/schopenh/) [Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy] Transcripts available at emersongreenblog.wordpress.com (https://emersongreenblog.wordpress.com/) Rate the show on iTunes here (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/walden-pod/id1474408172) Listen to our sister show Counter Apologetics here (https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/counter-apologetics/id1273573417?mt=2) Subscribe to CA and Walden Pod on YouTube here (https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCqBy2TfJbYXjqBL3cQOFUig) Support the show at patreon.com/waldenpod Contact me at emersongreen@protonmail.com or on Facebook (http://facebook.com/counterapologeticspodcast) Follow on Twitter @waldenpod and @OnPanpsychism

Can subjective observations, no matter how well-substantiated and supported, ever lead to knowledge of objective reality? Discussed in this episode: René Descartes' theory on objective reality, skepticism about the possibility of perceiving objective reality, differences in perceptions between species, Immanuel Kant 's influence on these lines of thinking, and questions about whether science can get us closer to understanding objective reality.

Introduction Jack was walking down a street. It was a day like any other. As ever, his mind was a flurry of thoughts, worries, and anxieties, stimulated by coffee and the bright light of his phone. In a bid to relieve his stress, he put his phone in his pocket, and tried to notice the details he would usually ignore. As he walked past the pharmacy, he saw a sick man coughing and spluttering; he was throwing medication back to stop his disease from decaying his body. Jack kept walking and came across an old woman waiting at a bus stop. She was fragile, crooked, and anxious; clearly age had taken much from her. Crossing the road away from the bus stop, he waited for the traffic to pass. Driving slowly past him was a hearse: a coffin on full display, surrounded by flowers, proceeded by a stream of weeping mourners. Jack fell to his knees, overwhelmed with despair, “we all get sick, we all age, and we all die. We cannot escape this fate!” His head against the pavement, he didn’t move for almost an hour. When he got up, he was approached by a homeless man, to whom he said, “sorry, I don’t have any change.” The man replied, “It is you who needs a little change, young monk. I know why you fall to your knees in despair: the inescapable suffering of life weighs on us all.

Podcast: The Panpsycast Philosophy Podcast (LS 49 · TOP 1% what is this?)Episode: Episode 88, Buddhism (Part III - The Cycle of Life)Pub date: 2020-11-08Introduction Jack was walking down a street. It was a day like any other. As ever, his mind was a flurry of thoughts, worries, and anxieties, stimulated by coffee and the bright light of his phone. In a bid to relieve his stress, he put his phone in his pocket, and tried to notice the details he would usually ignore. As he walked past the pharmacy, he saw a sick man coughing and spluttering; he was throwing medication back to stop his disease from decaying his body. Jack kept walking and came across an old woman waiting at a bus stop. She was fragile, crooked, and anxious; clearly age had taken much from her. Crossing the road away from the bus stop, he waited for the traffic to pass. Driving slowly past him was a hearse: a coffin on full display, surrounded by flowers, proceeded by a stream of weeping mourners. Jack fell to his knees, overwhelmed with despair, “we all get sick, we all age, and we all die. We cannot escape this fate!” His head against the pavement, he didn't move for almost an hour. When he got up, he was approached by a homeless man, to whom he said, “sorry, I don't have any change.” The man replied, “It is you who needs a little change, young monk.

The focus of this episode is George Herbert Mead who has had a tremendous impact on sociology, psychology and philosophy. See the end of this post for links to the episode. I talk to Darren Nixon about Mead's most famous contribution; his conceptualisation of the self as as being comprised of two parts, “I” and the “Me”. Mead's great insight is that our “self” is not part of a transcendent “spirit” or biologically predisposed but is a “social self” that is produced through our interactions with others. As well as his most famous insight we also discuss his contribution to broader social and political thought in particular his analysis of the relationship between our acceptance of our knowledge of the world and what is useful to us. Darren and I consider what his insights might mean for some contemporary issues including social media use and the increasing acceptance of populist ideology. Mead's work is mostly not available open access but this introduction from the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy is good. There is also a chapter by him in a collection on pragmatist philosophy available on Project Gutenberg . It is usually possible to pick up his books quite cheaply second hand such as his Mind, Self & Society. If you have access to a good library I highly recommend Ian Burkitt's books Social Selves which has some excellent sections on Mead's work.

Introduction One day when Jack, Olly, and Andy were accompanying Confucius, Confucius said: “Why don’t each of you tell me what you have your mind set on.” Andy was the first to reply, he said he wanted to be as profitable and the prestigious as the Duke of Zhou. Once he had profit and prestige, he could have all things his heart desired. Jack, having suspected that Andy had given a poor response, said he wished to cultivate humanness by helping others to help themselves. He wanted to allow others to see how their selfishness prevented them from becoming truly human and from experiencing true joy. Finally, Olly simply responded that he wished not to make any promises he couldn’t keep but that he hoped to learn from the ancients, respect the roles he had been assigned, and care for his friends and family. Confucius sat quietly for a moment and then said: “Andy, you have mistaken what made the Duke of Zhou so well pleased. Jack, you have said the right words but for the wrong reason. Olly, you can learn from the ancients but also from your less capable friends, see if you share any of their qualities.” Contents Part I. The Life of Confucius Part II. The Analects Part III.

We live in an age of religious pluralism. This religious pluralism is more than a fact of diversity but is also a value of our society. In a pluralistic society, if anyone claims exclusive, absolute truth, then they are deemed intolerant and arrogant. Religious pluralism poses a challenge to the Christian faith which claims that salvation is only available through the work of Jesus Christ. How should Christians respond to the challenge of religious pluralism? In this episode, Aaron explains the worldview of pluralism and shows how Christians can respond to the challenge. Show Notes Proponents of religious pluralism argue that exclusive truth claims are divisive and dangerous for the world. Religious pluralism is the belief that all religions and worldviews are equally valid and true. The worldview of religious pluralism is self-contradictory. Christianity provides a better answer for the divisiveness of religion. Truth is exclusionary by nature. The gospel is exclusive in its claim that salvation is only in Jesus. The gospel is the most inclusive of any religious claims since it offers salvation by grace. When people are formed by the gospel, then they will be loving and merciful to those who are different from themselves. Resources See my newest article at Boundless.org “Is Jesus the Only Way?” Read about religious pluralism at the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Read the chapter “Religious Pluralism” in Christian Apologetics by Douglas Groothuis.

As our government teeters and our populace becomes increasingly polarized, many fear war is on the horizon. Some of us have realized it is already here. How can we wage a just war? How can we work for a just peace? And how can we fight monsters without becoming monsters ourselves?

Súčasná pandémia vírusu SARS-CoV-2 ponúka veľký priestor aj pre filozofické uvažovanie. Dnes chcem pripomenúť jednu z hlavých úloh filozofie, ktorou je----more---- pomôcť nám správne rozlišovať a nejde tu len o pomenovanie jasných rozdielov v štýle „buď-alebo“. Filozofia nám často ukazuje, že skôr ako čierno-biele „áno alebo nie“ sa život zvykne uberať cestou “aj áno, aj nie“. Sme s ochorením Covid-19 vo vojne? Aj áno, aj nie.

V dnešnej dávke sa pozrieme na to, prečo má podľa Petra Singera prevažná väčšina zvierat morálny status, z čoho pramení, a prečo je dokonca časť zvierat na rovnakej morálnej úrovni ako ľudia a zdieľame status osoby.----more----V závere sa pozrieme na tri možné námietky voči jeho teórii a veľmi zaujímavou tu napríklad otázka, či vlastne v rámci Singerovho utilitarizmu môžu vôbec existovať neodňateľné práva ľudí či zvierat.

Existențialism IV (4 din 4) „Omul este condamnat să fie liber; pentru că odată aruncat în lume, el este responsabil pentru tot ceea ce face. Depinde de tine să-i dai vieții un sens” a spus Jean-Paul Sartre. Însă ce înseamnă fraza “ești condamnat să fii liber?” Sartre spunea că „existența precede esența”. Noi mai întâi existăm, și apoi ne formăm pe parcursul vieții. Cine vom deveni depinde de noi. Responsabilitatea e doar a noastră. Albert Camus spunea că „Există o singură problemă filosofică cu adevărat gravă și aceasta este sinuciderea.” El a fost bântuit de întrebarea dacă suicidul ar putea fi singurul răspuns rațional la absurditatea vieții. Filosoafa Simone de Beauvoir afirma că tu ca individ exiști în relație cu alți indivizi, și că existența altora justifică existența ta ca individ. Cum aș putea să-mi asum libertatea într-un mod etic fără ca simultan să-mi doresc libertatea altora? Deoarece suntem conectați, să-ți dorești propria libertate e să-ți dorești libertatea altora, spunea de Beauvoir. Emil Cioran te trezea din somn cu aforisme tragico-ironice ca “Numai optimiștii se sinucid, optimiștii care nu mai reușesc să fie optimiști. Ceilalți, neavând motive să trăiască, de ce ar avea ei motive să moară?” și "Dacă nu ar fi existat religie și muzică, m-aș fi făcut paznic de bordel" Ce aveau toți acești gânditori în comun, și ce îi diferenția? În timpul și după al Doilea Război Mondial, când orașul Paris începea să se reconstruiască, Sartre și Camus au dat glas la dispoziția zilei. Europa fusese imolată, dar cenușa lăsată de război a creat spațiul pentru a-și imagina o nouă lume. Cititorii de atunci s-au uitat spre Sartre și Camus pentru a articula cum ar putea arăta acea lume nouă. „Am fost”, și-a amintit colega Simone de Beauvoir, „pentru a oferi epocii războiului ideologia ei”. În acest episod eu sumarizez și în sfârșit închei curentul filosofic Existențialist.

Existențialism III (3 din 4) Voi v-ați gândit vreodată, care-i rolul unui artist în viață? Să descrie realitatea, sau să o schimbe? De ce atunci când artistul dezvăluie adevăruri pătrunzătoare despre lume el devine în același timp înstrăinat de acea lume? Van Gogh scria în jurnalul său, “Mi-am pus inima și sufletul în arta mea și mi-am pierdut mințile în proces.” Filosoful german Martin Heidegger, analizându-l pe Nietzsche, construiește o imagine a lumii în care arta, stilul de viață artistic și imaginea artistului joacă un rol important. Lumea însăși, presupune Heidegger, este doar un set dinamic de relații, proprietăți și atribute care construiesc întregul posibilității umane, deci, a sensurilor și semnificațiilor umane. Ca atare, susține Heidegger, esența lumii este ascunsă și uitată, nedezvăluită în întregime, îngropată adânc sub mai multe straturi de interpretări metafizice și anxietăți religioase. Lumea artei, pe de altă parte, oferă rezoluție și dezvăluire. Ea dezvăluie câmpurile de bază ale semnificației, care sunt altfel reprimate și ignorate. Arta și modul artistului dezvăluie nu numai totalitatea semnificațiilor, ci și, în primul rând, simpla posibilitate de sens. Are arta un rol transcendent? Dacă da, atunci ce ar dezvălui ea despre viață? Iar dacă nu, atunci care sunt consecințele psihologice pentru mintea artistului atunci când el se confruntă cu această realizare? Ce se întâmplă atunci când artistul confundă viața cu arta? Ca să încerc să răspund la aceste întrebări, voi compara două lumi diferite, folosind două dintre celebrele lor parabole: povestea lui Nietzsche despre un „Acrobat pe frânghie” și povestea lui Kafka “Prima Întristare” despre un acrobat la trapez într-un circ. Voi încerca să vă explic concepția “saltului artistului” și în cele din urmă, voi concluziona ce ne-ar putea învăța, dacă este vreo învățătură, comparația dintre Nietzsche și Kafka cu privire la perspectiva lui Heidegger asupra vieții artistice. ------------------------------------------------------------------- -------------------------------------------------------------------- Surse: Prima Întristare (First Sorrow, Franz Kafka), Metamorfoza (Metamorphosis, Kafka), Așa Grăit-a Zaratustra (Thus Spoke Zarathustra, Friedrich Nietzsche), Nașterea Tragediei(Birth of Tragedy, Nietzsche), Știința Voioasă (The Gay Science, Nietzsche), Wikipedia, Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy (www.iep.utm.edu), Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (www.plato.stanford.edu), www.iwm.at ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Instagram: www.instagram.com/meditatii.podcast Facebook: www.facebook.com/MeditatiiPodcast iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/medit…ast/id1434369028 YouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UC-ONPBDKSNytH-O5eIQKItA
David Hume ho prebudil z jeho dogmatických driemot, ale namiesto toho, aby sa stal verným zástancom empirizmu, Immanuel Kant išiel o mnoho racionálnym míľ ďalej a dnes ho radíme medzi ne-empiristických, idealistických filozofov. Dnes si posvietime na jeho chápanie ľudského chápania a na to ako nadviazal na Humea, ako ho potom hodil cez palubu a ako sa Hume nakoniec na tú palubu i tak vyšplhal späť, ale ku kormidlu sa nedostal.----more---- Použitá a odporúčaná literatúra: Michael Rohlf, „Immanuel Kant“, The Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (2018), https://stanford.io/33erMxGMatt McCormick, „Immanuel Kant: Metaphysics“, Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, https://bit.ly/2LYcqI3Daniel N.

Existențialism II (2 din 4) În episodul precedent, Nietzsche declarase că “Dumnezeu e mort” și că “noi toți suntem ucigașii lui.” Însă ar fi asta o concluzie definitivă despre secularizarea societății moderne? Cum ne mișcăm înainte? Cât de radicală trebuie să fie această “transvaluare a valorilor”? Putem păstra ceva din morala Creștină, ori e mai “rațional” să începem de la început? Care sunt consecințele acestor încercări de a ne crea propriile valori din abisul nihilismului? Dacă Dumnezeu e just și binevoitor, atunci de ce omul în genere a fost pus să sufere? În ceea ce privește „Moartea lui Dumnezeu”, sunt încă multe lucruri de discutat. Marele scriitor rus Fyodor Dostoyevsky, deși era acord că dogma Creștină a fost învinsă de intelectul uman, totuși ar fi avut câteva obiecții cruciale la încercarea lui Nietzsche de ași crea propriile valori. Aceste obiecții le putem observa în nuvelele lui, în particular „Frații Karamazov” și „Crimă și Pedeapsă”. Problema moralității moderne de fapt e încă mai gravă și complexă decât pare la prima vedere. Deși Nietzsche și Dostoyevsky aveau perspective diferite, ei totuși aveau și viziuni comune, în special, ambii au prezis profetic nihilismul și regimurile totalitariste care vor ieși la iveală în secolul XX (ex: Fascismul, Comunismul). În esență, în Nietzche și în Dostoyevsky avem două tabere de gândire: Prima crede că din această prăpastie nihilistă e posibil să-ți afirmi valori noi și ca rezultat să depășești acel nihilism inițial, evoluând într-o stare etică și spirituală mai avansată. Iar a doua tabără concluzionează că nihilismul, precipitat de Moartea lui Dumnezeu, e baza necesară pe care se află toate gândurile lui Nietzsche, adică nihilismul și căutarea valorilor noi sunt chestii ce NU pot fi separate vreodată, și respectiv, omul, după natura și limitele sale biologice, e incapabil să se autodepășească așa cum a sperat Nietzsche. Ca să înțelegem diferențele între aceste două viziuni, e nevoie de o analiză și juxtapunere minuțioasă. Anume asta și voi întreprinde în acest episod. ------------------------------------------------------------------- 0:00 Introducere 8:28 Creștinismul și problemele sale (Jordan Peterson) 46:02 Pierderea moralității Occidentale 52:22 Nihilism activ vs nihilism pasiv 54:12 Dostoyevsky vs Nietzsche (în multe, multe...detalii) 2:01:34 Tirania moralității în viziunea lui Nietzsche 2:10:32 Evoluția lui Darwin și interpretarea greșită a lui Nietzsche 2:23:02 Concluzia 2:27:56 Moartea Dumnezeilor -------------------------------------------------------------------- Surse: Frații Karamazov (Dostoyevsky), Dincolo De Bine și Rău (Nietzsche), Genealogia Moralității (Nietzsche), 12 Reguli Pentru Viață (Jordan Peterson), academyofideas.com, theschooloflife.com, salvomag.com, YouTube, Wikipedia, Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy (iep.utm.edu), Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (plato.stanford.edu), philosophymajor.wordpress.com, Sea of Faith (BBC, Don Cupitt) ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Muzica de la sfârșit: Slow Meadow – Absence Sleeping At Last – Atlas: Hearing Johann Johannsson – The Rocket Builder They Dream By Day – Birdsong ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Video: Interviul lui „Dostoyevsky” (BBC) https://youtu.be/ApyQIl5YKtM „Omul nebun”, Așa Grăita Zarathustra, Nietzsche (BBC, Sea of Faith) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gq3SeX24iYI Michio Kaku, despre 2 tipuri de "Dumnezeu" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KoGYObRNn6A ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Instagram: www.instagram.com/meditatii.podcast Facebook: www.facebook.com/MeditatiiPodcast iTunes: itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/medit…ast/id1434369028 YouTube: www.youtube.com/channel/UC-ONPBDKSNytH-O5eIQKItA

Prof. Nancy Jecker came to Queen's University Belfast to speak at this philosophy conference (https://philevents.org/event/show/64710) on the ethics of chronic illness, and I used that opportunity to ask her about her philosophical interests and work. We talked about life and death – in particular, lives lived with chronic illneses, and the ways that a person's story doesn't end just at the moment that they die. We talked about intergenerational ethical issues (for example, about caring for the dependent elderly). She introduced me to the concept of an 'itai hoteru', which are Japanese hotels-for-the newly-deceased, and the 421-problem in China. Here are some links to help you find out more about Nancy and her work: * Nancy Jecker's webpage (https://phil.washington.edu/people/nancy-s-jecker) at the philosophy department at the University of Washington * A list of Nancy Jecker's publications (https://philpapers.org/s/Nancy%20S.%20Jecker) from PhilPapers.org - many with links to the articles. Don't forget that if you need help getting access to paywalled articles, you can try contacting authors and politely asking them whether they'd be happy to send you a .pdf. Using the hashtag #icanhazpdf on twitter can be sometimes be useful as well. * Here's Nancy's piece on itai hoteru in the journal Bioethics: 'What do we owe the newly dead? (https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/bioe.12578) An ethical analysis of findings from Japan's corpse hotels workers', co-authored with Eriko Miwa. It's behind a paywall at this link, but you can read a pre-print version on her ResearchGate page here (https://www.researchgate.net/publication/332242536_What_do_we_owe_the_newly_dead_An_ethical_analysis_of_findings_from_Japan's_corpse_hotels_workers). * In the episode Nancy talks about using the 'capabilities approach' to justice in her work on intergenerational justice and the ethics to do with ageing. Over on the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy you can find this entry on Amartya Sen's 'capabilities approach' (https://www.iep.utm.edu/sen-cap/), which is a good overview. But more recently people are discussing Martha Nussbaum's version of this approach, so you might find it useful to skip down to §7 (https://www.iep.utm.edu/sen-cap/#H7). * We mention the 4-2-1 problem (or 4:2:1 problem, strictly, since it's about ratios), and here's an accessible article in io9 which talks more generally about China's looming population crisis. 'The Unintended Consequences Of China's One-child Policy' (https://io9.gizmodo.com/the-unintended-consequences-of-chinas-one-child-policy-5948528) by George Dvorsky. * We briefly talked about 'Parfit's non-identity problem' without really explaining it. It's a problem that Derrick Parfit proposes in the final section of his book Reasons and Persons (1984, chapter 16). The problem is summarised in this (slightly challenging, not hugely accessible) entry of the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy (https://plato.stanford.edu/entries/nonidentity-problem/). You can see Parfit discussing it in person over on this YouTube video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KtU0pah4R8Q), again, not entirely accessible to people who are new to philosophy.

Existențialism II (2 din 4) Cam din secolul 18 încoace, rolul religiei a scăzut considerabil, lumea nu mai crede în Dumnezeu ca înainte, însă suntem noi oare conștienți de consecințele acestei schimbări în valorile noastre? Nietzsche a spus că nu, noi nici nu înțelegem pe deplin ce înseamnă Moartea lui Dumnezeu. Nietzsche fost un diagnostician al nihilismului, ci nu un propunător. El a analizat minuțios psihologia modernă umană și a încercat să pună o bază pentru noi valori pozitive. Cât de bine i-a reușit lui asta? Ar fi oare posibil să afirmi valori morale fără vreo autoritate externă? De unde au venit noțiunile de bine și rău? O fi ele ghidate de ordinea cosmică? Ori sunt niște invenții deștepte ale omului pentru a potoli anxietatea care reiese din lipsa de sens al Universului? Ce înseamnă să fii „super-om”? Care sunt cele 3 etape de dezvoltare a individului? Nietzsche a vorbit despre toate aceste lucruri în stilul său distinct—plin de ironie, aforisme, și profunzime. El e o persoană complexă, având critici, la fel ca și admiratori. Numit de alții ca cel mai profund filosof, cel mai adolescentin, cel mai controversat, cel mai poetic, cel mai nedemocratic. Una e cert: e un filosof care te scutură din apatie și are potențialul să te provoace să-ți reconsideri întregul sistem de gândire. ------------------------------------------------------------------- Secțiuni cronologice: 0:00 — Ce este Moartea lui Dumnezeu? 11:20 — Voința de Putere și Reapariția Veșnică 30:19 — Anti-Darwin 34:18 — Ubermensch sau „super-omul” 45:47 — Zarathustra (Originea Binelui și Răului) 55:16 — Ubermensch: cele 3 etape de dezvoltare a individului 1:21:15 — Recepția lui Nietzsche 1:25:50 — Critica Creștinismului 1:29:34 — Apollo vs Dionis 1:35:37 — Concluzia ------------------------------------------------------------------- Surse: Philosophy Now, Partially Examined Life, Wikipedia, Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy, Philosophize this! podcast.

Existențialism I (1 din 4) În ce constă paradoxul existenței umane? Care e diferența între adevărul obiectiv și cel subiectiv? Care-i rolul ironiei și umorului în dezvoltarea individului? Ce este “nevroza normală”? În ce constă Existențialismul Creștin și maturitatea spirituală? La toate aceste întrebări a încercat să răspundă printr-o elocvență unică “unul din cei mai buni gânditori ai secolului 19” și după părerea multora, ultimul intelectual autentic Creștin pe care omenirea l-a avut, Søren Kierkegaard. Tatăl Existențialismului—după cum îl numesc mulți academici, despre el și voi vorbi în acest episod. Analiza lui a condiției umane, a psihologiei religiei, a anxietății, a groazei de moarte, a psihozei și nevrozei, a inspirat psihoterapia secolului 20 în frunte cu Sigmund Freud și a pus temelia curentului Existențialist care va fi în plină desfășurare în secolul celor două războaie mondiale. Episodul e foarte lung, așa că am indicat o cronologie cu tematicele corespunzătoare. Prima parte (mai dificilă) e introductorie, cu context istoric, biografic, și filosofic. A doua parte (mai ușoară) e psihoanalitică, psihologică, și spirituală.

Since this is the inaugural episode of Stoicism On Fire it would be natural for you the listener to wonder what this podcast is about. Obviously, it’s about Stoicism, but What is Stoicism on Fire? As the introduction states, this podcast is about Stoicism as a philosophical way of life, which includes a rational form of spirituality. That form of Stoicism has become known as traditional Stoicism in modern times. Ancient Stoicism: 300 BCE – 200 CE Many credible sources are available to explore the doctrines of Stoicism. Both of these trusted sources provide accurate explanations of Stoic doctrines and contrast that with modern or contemporary versions of Stoicism: Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy - Stoicism Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy – Stoicism Neo-Stoicism: 16th and 17th centuries Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy – Neo-Stoicism Modern Stoicism Has its roots in Lawrence Becker’s book A New Stoicism in 1998 – an attempt to revive Stoicism in a secular form. Modern Stoicism Blog Traditional Stoicism Grew out of Erik Wiegardt’s creation of the New Stoa in 1996. Traditional Stoicism is an attempt to make sense of the ancient Stoic way of life in light of what we have learned about human nature and the cosmos over the last two thousand years while remaining true to the deeply religious nature of Stoicism. Traditional Stoicism Blog The History of Philosophy Without Any Gaps Peter Adamson, Professor of Philosophy at the LMU in Munich and at King's College London, takes listeners through the history of philosophy, "without any gaps." The series looks at the ideas, lives and historical context of the major philosophers as well as the lesser-known figures of the tradition. Lectures 60 through 68 address Stoicism; they can be found here: 60 – Walking on Eggshells: the Stoics on Logic 61 – Nobody’s Perfect: the Stoic on Knowledge 62 – We Didn’t Start the Fire: the Stoics on Nature 63 – Like a Rolling Stone: Stoic Ethics 64 – David Sedley on Stoicism 65 – Anger Management: Seneca 66 – You Can Chain My Leg: Epictetus 67 – The Philosopher King: Marcus Aurelius 68 – John Sellars on the Roman Stoics John Cooper John Cooper, of Princeton University, also provides a great one-hour long lecture on ‘The Stoic Way of Life’ as part of the 2011 John Locke lecture series produced by University of Oxford. Some key points of interest for traditional Stoics: @ 6:29 – The coherence of the Stoic philosophical system @ 6:48 – John Cooper argues: “In order to understand properly the Stoic way of life and its philosophical basis, we’re going to have to learn a great deal about their metaphysical and physical theory into which, as I have said, their ethical theory is set as the centerpiece of their whole philosophical system. @ 13:55 – The human relationship to the divine mind The full lecture can be found here: John Cooper Lecture A Box of my favorite things Kevin Patrick Jr wrote a blog post in November of 2015 that has remained quite relevant as the modern Stoic movement grows. He asks, How many of us have a box of our favorite things which we’ve haphazardly scrawled “STOICISM” across the side? Inside this box of decades’, generations’ worth of baggage, is there much room leftover for the ideas of Epictetus? Kevin's post is worth reading; he blogs as Mountain Stoic and this post can be found here: A box of my favorite things, with “STOICISM” scrawled on the side Pierre Hadot Maybe more than any other modern philosopher, Pierre Hadot reintroduced moderns to the concept of philosophy as a way of life. His books emphasize the deeply spiritual nature of Stoicism. In his book on the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius, he wrote in the conclusion: All the dogmas of Stoicism derive from this existential choice. It is impossible that the universe could produce human rationality, unless the latter were already in some way present within th...
Lyt med, når IDA Podcast sætter fokus på evolutionære algoritmer og kunstige neurale netværk. Det er kognitive teknologier, som er fuldstændigt centrale for udviklingen indenfor kunstig intelligens i dag - og ikke til at overse, når vi skal forstå det eksponentielt accelererende paradigme, vi lever i. Vi stiller også skarpt på spørgsmålet, om maskiner kan være kreative, og på den vigtige rolle, kunstig intelligens spiller i en verden, hvor datamængden og processorkraften bare vokser og vokser.

David and Tamler list three things they've changed their minds about in their careers. (This episode was recorded before Episode 75, but that one was way too long already.) What does Tamler think about X-phi these days? Has Dave lost his faith in the power of reason? What the hell is 'non-cognitivism'? Plus, Dave disagrees with John Hodgman about the metaphysical property of a hot dog. And a couple of listener shout-outs, including giving credit to a listener for giving us a topic idea we discussed without realizing she had suggested it in an email weeks ago.

John Duns Scotus (d. 1308), nicknamed by tradition "the Subtle Doctor," was one of the most important medieval Christian philosophers, and was notorious for the difficulty of his thought. In this episode, we hear a specialist in medieval philosophy give a conference presentation on Scotus's views on identity (sameness) and distinction (difference). Nowadays most philosophers and logicians recognize qualitative sameness (aka similarity), which comes in degrees, and numerical sameness (aka numerical or absolute identity), which doesn't come in degrees, and which is a symmetrical, transitive, and reflexive relation. This latter, numerical identity, is a relation which a thing can only bear to itself. If these are all we have to work with, then we get apparent contradictions from trinitarian claims. For instance, consider this triad of claims: The Father is God. The Son is God. The Father is not the same as the Son. If the Father is numerically identical to God (1), and so is the Son (2), then it follows (because the relation is symmetrical and transitive), that the Father and Son are numerically identical. (So, 3 is false) The above three claims, so understood, are an inconsistent triad - if any two are true, the remaining claim is false. But arguably, the "Athanasian Creed" requires them all. That is, interpreting the above triad in terms of numerical identity, there would be this valid argument: f = g s = g g = s (from 2, symmetricality) f= s (from 1 and 3, by transitivity) But 4 is a disastrous conclusion. We know that a thing can't, at the same time and in the same way, differ from itself. But according to the New Testament, the Father and Son have differed. To put it differently, numerical sameness forces indiscernibility. If any A just is some B, then A and B can't differ in the smallest way. But the Father and Son do differ, and so they must be non-identical, which is to say, numerically distinct. What does it mean to say, then, that each of them "is God." Perhaps the statements simply mean that each is divine, that each has the divine attributes or a divine nature. Father and Son would then be not numerically identical, but rather similar - that is, like one another, in respect of being divine. But then we have two beings, each of which is divine; this would appear to be two gods. What now? One response is to make additional distinctions, to argue that our concepts of numerical and qualitative sameness are not enough. This is the course pursued by John Duns Scotus. He holds that we must consider sameness and difference both in the mind, and as it were "on the side of things" in the world, and then he goes on to make further distinctions, which he thinks are relevant not only to theology, but also to more general metaphysics. Our presenter is Dr. Joshua Blander, Assistant Professor of Philosophy at The King's College in New York City. His paper is called "Being the Same without Being the Same: Duns Scotus on Identity and Distinction." Here is his handout from the presentation, which will help you to follow along.

Michael Boylan is the John J. McDonnell jr chair in Ethics, and professor and chair of the philosophy department at Marymount University in Arlington, Virginia. In addition to being a poet and novelist, he has written more than 100 published articles and 25 books primarily in ethics, social and political philosophy, philosophy of science, and the intersection of philosophy and literature. He was a fellow at the Center for American Progress, a Washington DC policy think tank from 2007-2009 and is the general editor of a series of trade books on public philosophy with Basil Blackwell Publishers and another series of books with Prentice Hall as well as being the ethics editor for the Internet Encyclopedia of Philosophy. Boylan was actually the first guest that I had never met before, so I had no idea how the interview would go – nor what kind of person Boylan was. There was no need for worry, though, as Boylan turned out to be engaged, enthusiastic and inspiring – on top of being a very nice guy. We had a great conversation, mostly centred around the relationship between philosophy and literature, (ancient) philosophy of biology, the good life and several other topics covered in Boylan’s impressive oeuvre.
