This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on one of the central themes involved in the plot and worldbuilding of the story, namely the existence of psionic talents such as telepathy and precognition, and the existence of anti-psionic talents (called inertials) that nullify those psionic talents. Most of the psionic and anti-psionic talents work for companies, like that of Ray Hollis or Glen Runciter To support my ongoing work, go to my Patreon site - www.patreon.com/sadler If you'd like to make a direct contribution, you can do so here - www.paypal.me/ReasonIO - or at BuyMeACoffee - www.buymeacoffee.com/A4quYdWoM You can find over 3000 philosophy videos in my main YouTube channel - www.youtube.com/user/gbisadler You can get a copy of Ubik here - https://amzn.to/4k8i348

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th Century American science-fiction short story writer and novelist, Philip K. Dick's novel Ubik It focuses specifically on one of the key features of the narrative world Dick develops in the story, namely the technology of Cold-Pac, which allows people who have experienced bodily death to be kept at cold temperatures and have their brains and thereby consciousnesses maintained, extending them for a while into "half-life". They do eventually run down and die after their energies are exhausted, and perhaps are reincarnated or have their consciousness simply drift off into space. Within half-life, there are some predatorial people who consume the lives of other people in order to extend their own half-lives.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century German philosopher, sociologist of knowledge, and phenomenologist, Max Scheler's work Ressentiment, which provides an interpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of that same name. It focuses on his discussion in the third part of the work "Christian Morality and Ressentment" of the connections Scheler sees between the modern conception of "altruism" and the dynamic of ressentiment, which he thinks is involved in modern "altruism". Both altruism and egoism as opposites are often used by modern thinkers as a conceptual framework that Christian love does not neatly fit into, and the reduction of Christian love to "altruism", Scheler thinks, is a mistake.

This lecture discusses key ideas from the 20th century German philosopher, sociologist of knowledge, and phenomenologist, Max Scheler's work Ressentiment, which provides an interpretation of Friedrich Nietzsche's concept of that same name.
