Jim talks with Lawrence Cahoone about the ideas in his book The Orders of Nature: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Complex Systems for the Life Sciences. They discuss how Cahoone's naturalist philosophy bridges multiple philosophical domains, his distinctive use of emergence theory borrowed from William Wimsatt, the concept of "no simples" in objective relativism, the role of Prigogine in emergence theory, Cahoone's self-taught approach to understanding physics and science, fallibilist and local metaphysics, Columbian naturalism and its rejection of the supernatural, the relationship between objects and their contexts, scientific explanations of relativity and quantum mechanics, and much more. Episode Transcript The Orders of Nature: An Introduction to the Philosophy of Complex Systems for the Life Sciences, by Lawrence Cahoone The Emergence of Value: Human Norms in a Natural World, by Lawrence Cahoone The Feynman Lectures on Physics, by Richard Feynman Lawrence Cahoone graduated with a Ph.D. in Philosophy at Stony Brook University in 1985.

Political economist Mark Pennington draws on the ideas of Hayek and Foucault to show how expert rule and government surveillance are making it harder for people to think freely and live on their own terms.

David Bell is Professor for the Era of North American Revolutions at Princeton University. He has written a biography of Napoleon Bonaparte, and much of his research is focussed on the French Revolution, the history of the Enlightenment, and on the importance of charisma in political leadership. In our conversation we discuss what makes a charismatic leader and why some historical moments tilt the balance of power towards charismatic leaders, past and present. How much is the Enlightenment legacy of human rights, individualism and universalism under threat as democracy is on the retreat and universities, scientific research, institutions, freedom of speech, and human rights are being questioned? And was there really one Enlightenment, and was it not completely hijacked by capitalism, communism, and colonialism, to leave little more than a dry shell of empty slogans? Is the Enlightenment still an inspiration for today? Support the show

When the pictures emerged of the loyalist bonfire in Moygashel in Co Tyrone, most people were horrified at the migrant boat effigy at the top. Politicians condemned it and called for action but others insisted it was in fact an act or ‘artistic protest'.On Free State, Joe and Dion look at the celebrations around the Twelfth of July, not as the desperate acts of a lost people, but as an artistic installation.Have we failed to understand the subversive power and artistic merit of Loyalism for generations? Or should we look at this artistic protest as a brutal sign of a community punching down as they search for people to blame? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Thirty-plus years in the making, the graphic adaptation of Paul Auster's THE NEW YORK TRILOGY (Pantheon) is here at last! Paul Karasik rejoins the show from Yaddo Artists Retreat to talk about the process of adapting Auster's postmodern crime novels into comics, how he collaborated with David Mazzucchelli (CITY OF GLASS) and Lorenzo Mattotti (GHOSTS) on the first two and how he wound up drawing the third book, THE LOCKED ROOM, how these novels possessed him for decades, and the moment when he understood what each novel was really about. We get into how he met Auster at a parent-teacher conference shortly after the New York Trilogy came out, the moment of truth when Auster first saw the pages for City of Glass, the freedom (and restriction) Auster offered for the project, and whether Auster got to see the finished pages before his death in 2024. We also discuss Paul's comics upbringing, how his mother supported his habit (and maybe melted her son's brain by getting him a book of R. Crumb comics at 12 or 13), his lack of confidence in his drawing and his supreme confidence in his teaching, how meeting Art Spiegelman changed his life, why he's starting an online graphic novel workshop, the immense inspiration of staying at Yaddo (and how he learned The Two Rules Of Yaddo), and a lot more.

Author and broadcaster Matthew Syed joins me on The Winston Marshall Show for a sharp takedown of the post-colonial guilt underlying the decision making of Britain's governing elite, Britain's looming debt crisis, the case for diversity and the decline of reason in Western discourse.Syed dismantles the lazy assumptions behind identity politics, arguing that equality of opportunity has been hijacked by a culture obsessed with group identity. He warns that diversity, when divorced from excellence, becomes a hollow virtue—and that critical thinking is being replaced by moral posturing.Syed delves into Britain's racial discourse, the myth of systemic whiteness, and the dangers of importing American-style race politics into a very different British context.All this—taboo truths, intellectual cowardice, the tyranny of groupthink, and the fight to restore reason in an age of ideological madness…-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------To see more exclusive content and interviews consider subscribing to my substack here: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------FOLLOW ME ON SOCIAL MEDIA:Substack: https://www.winstonmarshall.co.uk/X: https://twitter.com/mrwinmarshallInsta: https://www.instagram.com/winstonmarshallLinktree: https://linktr.ee/winstonmarshall----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------Chapters0:00 Introduction 2:20 Matthew Saeed's Career and Views on Elite Guilt13:23 Historical Context and Moral Psychology 22:23 British Colonialism and Its Legacy 31:17 Challenges of Modern British Policy 55:54 The Role of Nationalism and the Nation State 1:00:10 The Impact of Post-Modernism and Critical Theory 1:13:59 The Consequences of Elite Failure and Guilt1:16:43 Diversity and Unity in Sports and Society Hosted on Acast.

Send us a textThis was originally released as a Patrons Bonus Episode on the 27th May2o24 on Patreon.Follow me on;|Episode Summary: In this episode, I explore the contentious intersections between modern and postmodern philosophies, considering Slovenian philosopher, Slavoj Žižek's critiques, along side my interpretation of the biblical concept of wisdom. We look at how these world views interact and challenge one another, particularly in the context of contemporary societal issues.Key Concepts:Modernism: A 20th-century movement emphasizing experimentation, abstraction, and subjective experience across various fields including literature, visual arts, music, philosophy, politics, and social issues. It arose from a sense of alienation from traditional morality and social norms.Postmodernism: An intellectual stance characterized by scepticism towards both religion as well as scientific rationalism and objective reality. It questions all "grand narratives", rejects stable meanings, and emphasizes relativism and pluralism.Slavoj Žižek: A Slovenian philosopher known for his work on ideology, Marxism, political theory, psychoanalysis, culture, and theology. He is critical of the contemporary appropriation of the term "wisdom.Biblical Wisdom: Rooted in Scripture, biblical wisdom I content is a divine gift characterized by moral purity and spiritual discernment. It transcends human understanding and emphasizes a deep, ongoing relationship with God.Main Discussion Points:Biblical Perspective on Wisdom:Tension Between Worldly and Divine Wisdom:Postmodernism vs. Biblical Wisdom:Modern Social Issues and Biblical Morality:Critique of Simplified Morality:Superficial Engagement and True Transformation:The Role of Ideologies:Christian Call to Authenticity:Conclusion: By engaging with complex philosophical and moral questions through the lens of biblical wisdom, we can seek deeper understanding and live more meaningful lives. This episode encourages listeners to explore these intersections critically and thoughtfully, always seeking to align their understanding with God's eternal truths.Scripture References:James 3:171 Corinthians 1:20-22Proverbs 3:5-6Colossians 2:3Isaiah 5:20Matthew 22:37-392 Corinthians 13:5Proverbs 2:3-52 Peter 3:18Genesis 1:27Galatians 3:281 John 1:8Revelation 3:15-16James 2:17Isaiah 58:6Ephesians 6:12John 8:32Matthew 7:3-51 Corinthians 3:192 Timothy 3:5Matthew 6:24Matthew 7:26-27Isaiah 55:2Matthew 23:27-28Matthew 6:24Proverbs 3:5-6John 14:6Matthew 23:24Matthew 6:24Matthew 5:6Support the showFor an ad-free version of my podcasts plus the opportunity to enjoy hours of exclusive content and two bonus episodes a month whilst also helping keep the Bible Project Daily Podcast free for listeners everywhere support me at;|PatreonSupport me to continue making great content for listeners everywhere.https://thebibleproject.buzzsprout.com

Something for nothingDo rewards and incentives damage our humanity?In much of our personal and professional lives, we receive rewards for good behaviour and carrying out our responsibilities. But, evidence now suggests there are risks to this approach. Studies show rewards can damage wellbeing, fostering dependence and undermining our own sense of control. And neuroscientists have shown those more prone to seeking reward have a 70% higher risk of addiction, with addictive behaviour now present in almost half of the U.S. population. So, should we move away from rewards-based systems, and instead learn to value doing the right thing simply for the sake of, well, doing the right thing?Paul Bloom is a Canadian-American psychologist, bestselling author, and celebrated speaker.

Dr. Hannah Spier, a psychiatrist from Zurich, Switzerland, calls herself an "anti-feminist psychiatrist.” We delve into the complexities of women's mental health, particularly how feminist ideologies can lead to feelings of inadequacy and burnout. Hannah shares her insights from years of treating women who often find themselves stuck in therapy, grappling with anxiety and unfulfilled desires, particularly around relationships and motherhood.We explore the concept of dating with intention, emphasizing the importance for women of knowing what we want while we still retain the advantages of youth. Hannah discusses the common patterns she sees in her patients, such as the pressure to achieve academically while neglecting emotional needs, which can lead to a cycle of anxiety and dissatisfaction. We also touch on the societal expectations placed on women and how these can create a disconnect between their true desires and their life choices.Throughout our conversation, we challenge the notion of self-esteem and discuss the role of gratitude in overcoming resentment. Hannah argues that understanding the realities of both women's and men's experiences can help shift perspectives and foster healthier relationships. This episode aims to provoke thought about the choices women make and the societal narratives that shape those choices, ultimately encouraging listeners to reflect on their own paths and desires.Hannah Spier is a Norwegian-born medical doctor trained in Psychiatry in Norway and Switzerland, with a degree in Cognitive Behavioural Psychotherapy from the University of Zurich. Now based in Zurich with her husband and three children, she launched the Psychobabble publication and podcast in October 2022 to challenge postmodern influences and champion traditional values in the mental health field.YouTube: @psychobabblewithspierPsychobabble Substack 00:00 Start[00:01:27] Anti-feminist psychiatrist explained.[00:07:26] Biological clock and priorities shift.[00:11:08] Success redefined for mothers.[00:14:06] Choices and leverage for women.[00:20:18] Biological realities of women's choices.[00:25:46] Antidote to resentment is gratitude.[00:30:00] Narcissism and self-perception.[00:34:48] Resentment in motherhood and relationships.[00:36:10] Women's relationship goals and challenges.[00:43:34] Choosing the right partner.[00:48:05] Evolutionary psychology and motherhood.[00:52:17] Dating with intention.[00:54:23] Postmodernism's impact on self-improvement.[01:02:27] Expecting more from ourselves.[01:03:21] Flaws in psychiatric treatment.[01:10:06] Maternal instincts and self-care.[01:15:36] Lies of feminism.[01:16:43] Vulnerability and relationship dynamics.[01:22:01] Confusion between love and passion.[01:28:06] Healing from domestic violence.[01:30:14] Maternal instincts and nurturing energy.ROGD REPAIR Course + Community gives concerned parents instant access to over 120 lessons providing the psychological insights and communication tools you need to get through to your kid.

In this edition we are discussing a very prevalent philosophy on university campuses today (as well as in many churches): Postmodernism. My guest is Dr. Scott Smith, Professor of Christian Apologetics at Biola University's Talbot School of Theology. Scott has written quite a few articles and well-received books on this topic and often speaks on postmodernism and its implications in churches, at conferences, and on podcasts like this one.   In this podcast we discuss: What postmodernism is, and how it developed out of modernity Why the theory of nominalism (the belief that there is no reality beyond the words we use for things) is the foundation of postmodernism Why Scott is so interested in this issue as a Christian Examples of where students will encounter postmodern thought Concerns about the rise in “expressive individualism” What we can learn from postmodern thought What we must reject in postmodern thought A practical suggestion for how to converse with someone who embraces postmodernism   Resources mentioned during our conversation: Scott Smith, Truth and the New Kind of Christian: The Emerging Effects of Postmodernism in the Church Scott Smith, Authentically Emergent: In Search of a Truly Progressive Christianity Scott Smith, Exposing the Roots of Constructivism: Nominalism and the Ontology of Knowledge Carl R.

Guest Bobby Angel, author "The Post Modern Predicament", joins to discuss the ages of philosophy through civilization. What is post modernism, and what is the mindset of society today? Discussion of losing faith in everything...finding purpose each day...and can we get our purpose back?  Dan Bongino shifts from media to FBI Deputy Director. What a team between Patel and Bongino reforming law enforcement agencies.  President Trump meets with Macron to discuss Ukraine. Could we see peace in the region within weeks...and why wasn't it done for the past three years?

It's Witness Wednesday! Todd Friel is on campus at Kennesaw State University where he will engage with students to clarify the importance of Jesus' sacrifice and the concept of grace. Todd will urge the students he speaks with to reflect deeply on their faith and the truth of the gospel. Segment 1: • Matt considers himself a Christian but doesn't see church attendance as necessary. • He values biblical morals but leans postmodern, believing multiple truths can exist. • He's challenged to reconsider truth as absolute—either Jesus is the only way, or He's not. Segment 2: • Postmodernism says “truth is personal,” but it crumbles under logical scrutiny. • Matt is confronted with moral absolutes—without God, nothing is truly right or wrong. • He's pushed to answer: Is Jesus actually the truth, or just a belief system among many? Segment 3: • Every worldview must answer: Where did we come from? Why are we here? How should we live? What happens after death? • Christianity provides the only coherent, holistic answers through Jesus Christ. • Matt admits he sees the logic but wrestles with fully committing to the exclusivity of Christ. Segment 4: • Joseph believes Jesus died for sins but also thinks people must earn their way to heaven. • He's shown why good deeds can't erase guilt—only Jesus' sacrifice can satisfy God's justice. • The urgency is laid out: Today is the day of salvation—will he surrender or keep trying to fix himself? ___ Thanks for listening!

Send us a textIn this episode of the Be Disciples podcast, Kyle Morris and Dakota Smith discuss worldviews and the unique opportunity they have to teach at Ottawa University. They delve into the importance of understanding world religions and how to engage in meaningful conversations about faith. The discussion covers the seven critical questions that shape worldviews, the challenges posed by postmodernism, and the nature of God as prime reality. The hosts emphasize the need for consistency in belief systems and the importance of critical thinking in a postmodern society. In this conversation, they dig into the relationship between faith and science, emphasizing the importance of recognizing a creator in the universe. The discussion covers the significance of critical thinking and the purpose of life, particularly in the context of engaging with students and their worldviews. The conversation highlights the dangers of subjective reality and the necessity of a healthy belief system, ultimately pointing to the uniqueness of the Gospel and the authority of Jesus in shaping relationships and understanding life.Takeaways:Teaching world religions helps in understanding diverse beliefs.Consistency is key in a solid belief system.Everyone has biases that should be tested.Engaging in respectful dialogue is crucial in discussions.Postmodernism lacks a coherent definition.God's holiness means He is dedicated to His character.The nature of God is essential to understanding reality.Science should be seen as a discovery of God's creation.Belief systems must be coherent and consistent. Exploring the universe should deepen our awe of God.Science relies on logic, which presupposes a creator.Engaging with different worldviews can be enlightening.Emotions should not define our understanding of humanity.Redefining reality based on feelings is dangerous.The authority of Jesus is paramount in relationships.#spirituality, #worldreligions, #postmodernism, #worldview, #faith, #science,  #critical thinking, #purpose of life, #emotions, #logic, #beliefsystems, #gospel

Today on Uncommon Sense with Ginny Robinson, we're discussing Kanye West's latest internet meltdown and what it reveals about the state of our unfortunate over-sexualized and depraved culture. From celebrity chaos to societal decay, it's clear—without God, the world spirals into total confusion and sin. We're breaking down the bigger picture and talking about why it's time to turn away from worldliness/wickedness and the dysfunction of degeneracy and back to the truth and love of Christ. Jesus is the only sane way forward, ladies and gentlemen.--https://www.thebrandsunday.com/products/the-bible-study-copy?utm_source=google&utm_medium=cpc&utm_campaign=tbs_thebiblestudy_searchads-nixwdmd&tw_source=google&tw_adid=608801073541&tw_campaign=17672311083&gad_source=1&gbraid=0AAAAAC-_2dRN1WU6lhTaWFNApFgzBkVe_&gclid=CjwKCAiAwaG9BhAREiwAdhv6Y_Xc6w4LM7_4otTu1-XgzYjKKwhwbNBCdqLFVTDdXToND7Rt6JU2hBoC3hsQAvD_BwE

Segment 1: • Common Sense or Controversy? J.D. Vance argues that loving everyone equally is unrealistic—biblical love has an order. • Postmodernism's Rejection of Hierarchy: Today's culture rejects prioritizing certain relationships, but the Bible affirms it. • National Leadership Matters: An American president who prioritizes Americans first is a radical (yet biblical) shift. Segment 2: • Greek Over Latin: The Ordo Amoris (Order of Love) isn't just philosophy—it's biblical wisdom. • Who Is My Neighbor? The Good Samaritan didn't go searching for people in need—he helped the one in his path. • Mercy Has Borders: Love is not limited, but practical care starts with those closest to us—family, community, nation. Segment 3: • Restoration to God? Absolutely. A fallen pastor can be restored in his faith and walk with the Lord. • Restoration to Ministry? Not Always. Some sins permanently disqualify a man from pastoral leadership. • Church Leadership Matters: Should a pastor who fell be allowed to teach or serve in any capacity? Biblical wisdom needed. Segment 4: • Wisdom vs. Punishment: We don't punish fallen leaders for their sins, but we must apply biblical standards. • Sin Makes Us Stupid: Are you ignoring small compromises that could lead to disaster? • Spiritual Red Flags: Lack of transparency, secret friendships with the opposite sex, and weak prayer life—time for a heart check. ___ Thanks for listening!

“A period of cultural change is commencing.” That's what Paul Anleitner recently posted on X. But what cultural vibe shift is he referencing? Have we come to the end of postmodernism? Paul joins Patrick on the pod today to discuss our new metamodernism moment. Paul is a writer, theologian of culture, podcast host, and pastor. He begins by explaining the progression from modernism to postmodernism, and how the 1990s ushered in a level of cynicism and suspicion that's remained until just recently. He then explains how he's observed a newer metamodern vibe shift: the exhaustion of cynicism, the failure of postmodernism, the myth of secular progressivism, and the crisis of meaning that's led to a sincere desire for authenticity. Providing examples such as Creed and Ted Lasso, he explains why he believes our culture is ready to “embrace the cringe.” But what does a new metamodern era look like? And what opportunities does this metamodern moment open up for Christians? Listen now! "Joyful Outsiders" is available now! Learn more, read a sample chapter, and grab your own copy here.

We've arrived at the big one, the breakthrough book of 1985 – White Noise. In Episodes 21 and 22, DDSWTNP extend our White Noise “residency” and turn in-depth attention to DeLillo's most popular piece of fiction in another double episode.  Episode 21: White Noise (1) takes an expansive view of the novel's narrative and goes into depth on (among many other subjects) the iconic opening chapter's commentary on America and Americana, the meaning of Mylex suits, Jack's relationships with Heinrich and Orest Mercator, and what it means to be a rat, a snake, a fascist, and a scholar of Hitler in this book's universe. Episode 22: White Noise (2) interprets passages mainly from the book's second half, including scenes featuring the dark humor of Vernon Dickey and of SIMUVAC, the meaning of DeLillo's desired title “Panasonic,” Jack's shooting of Willie Mink (and what it owes to Nabokov), a riveting fire and a fascinating trash compactor cube, and the Dostoevskyan interrogation of belief by Sister Hermann Marie. Every minute features original ideas on the enduring meanings of White Noise in so many political, social, technological, and moral dimensions – what it teaches us about the roots and implications of our many epistemological crises, how it does all this in writing that somehow manages to be self-conscious, philosophical, hilarious, and warm all at once. Texts and artifacts discussed and mentioned in these episodes: Ernest Becker, The Denial of Death (Free Press, 1973).  Adam Begley, “Don DeLillo: The Art of Fiction CXXXV,” The Paris Review 128 (1993): 274-306.            (DeLillo: “And White Noise develops a trite adultery plot that enmeshes the hero, justifying his fears about the death energies contained in plots. When I think of highly plotted novels I think of detective fiction or mystery fiction, the kind of work that always produces a few dead bodies. But these bodies are basically plot points, not worked-out characters. The book's plot either moves inexorably toward a dead body or flows directly from it, and the more artificial the situation the better.

Segment 1 • We've transitioned from Post-Modernism to Meta-Modernism, which dominates university culture today. • A swipe-culture where students only engage with fragmented news bites, embracing contradictory ideas without context. • Meta-Modernism feeds off skepticism, encouraging a belief system with no solid foundation. Segment 2 • It's a mindset where embracing contradictions is normal and self-centeredness reigns supreme. • Meta-Modernism erodes clarity, leading to incoherent beliefs. As parents and believers, it's crucial to raise kids with solid truths. • Preach unwavering truth and model it with an authentic life. Segment 3 • Should Sunday sports trump church? There's liberty here, but parents must weigh what's more significant for their kids' spiritual growth. • Emphasizing worship over sports speaks volumes to kids and opens opportunities for gospel conversations. • While the chances of going pro are slim, standing before Jesus is a certainty. Segment 4 • Singleness isn't a sin, but the Sexual Revolution has altered societal views on relationships, hurting women the most. • Expressive individualism emphasizes self, altering values like marriage, stability, and the value of sex. • Many parents prioritize their children's financial stability over cultivating their relational or spiritual health. ___ Thanks for listening!
