durée : 00:58:07 - Avec philosophie - par : Géraldine Muhlmann, Nassim El Kabli - Si Spinoza affirme que l'homme trouve sa puissance et sa vérité dans la relation à autrui, reconnaître que "rien n'est plus utile à l'homme que l'homme", c'est comprendre que la raison et la liberté ne se réalisent qu'à travers la communauté des esprits. - réalisation : Nicolas Berger - invités : Bernard Pautrat Philosophe, ancien professeur à l'ENS, spécialiste de Spinoza.; Chantal Jaquet Philosophe, professeure d'histoire de la philosophie moderne à l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon Sorbonne
durée : 00:58:39 - Avec philosophie - par : Géraldine Muhlmann, Nassim El Kabli - En plein XVIIème, Spinoza (1632-1677) entreprend une lutte risquée contre toutes les formes d'aliénations, tant religieuses que politiques, pour promouvoir la liberté de penser des individus. En quoi consiste donc la critique de la religion dans son "Traité théologico-politique" ? - réalisation : Nicolas Berger - invités : Céline Hervet Maître de conférences en histoire de la philosophie moderne et en philosophie morale et politique à l'université de Picardie Jules Verne; Dan Arbib Agrégé et docteur en philosophie.
durée : 00:58:17 - Avec philosophie - par : Géraldine Muhlmann, Nassim El Kabli - Pour Spinoza, le bien et le mal ne sont pas des réalités objectives, mais des interprétations liées à notre nature et à nos affects. Dès lors, ces valeurs ont-elles une existence réelle ou ne sont-elles que des fictions humaines ? - réalisation : Nicolas Berger - invités : Paul Rateau Maître de Conférences à l'Université Paris 1 Panthéon-Sorbonne; Pascale Gillot Professeur de philosophie et chercheuse
Ted Gioia warned this would be a tough week—and he wasn't kidding. Week 33 of the Immersive Humanities Project had me wrestling with three giants of philosophy: Descartes, Kant, and Spinoza. I started with Descartes' Discourse on the Method, where his famous “I think, therefore I am” felt surprisingly direct and human. His four rules for reasoning—question, divide, simplify, and review—made him seem less like an abstract philosopher and more like a kind, curious friend.Kant's Groundwork for the Metaphysics of Morals was another story. Dense and demanding, it centers on the “Categorical Imperative”: act only according to principles you'd accept as universal law. It's a moral system built purely on duty, not emotion.Then came Spinoza's Ethics, written like a geometry proof. His radical idea—that God and Nature are one—left little room for the supernatural or free will.When reading failed, I turned to the 1987 Great Philosophers series with Brian Magee, which unlocked everything. These thinkers—Continental Rationalists all—believed reason alone could uncover truth, unlike the British Empiricists who demanded evidence. It was a mentally exhausting but fascinating stretch, and next week I'm relieved to return to fiction with Goethe's The Sorrows of Young Werther.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

Comprendre Gilles Deleuze, c'est plonger au cœur du réacteur nucléaire de la philosophie. Toutes les grandes questions sont dynamitées et réinventées selon une logique totalement neuve. La philosophie devient un art : celui de créer des concepts. Chaque concept créé est une nouvelle façon de voir — et de vivre — le monde. Mais aussi une nouvelle façon de vivre notre rapport à nous-mêmes.➔ Regardez la version vidéo de cet épisode : https://youtu.be/tpT4FJuGBoA➔ Rejoignez-moi sur Patreon : https://www.patreon.com/ParoledephilosopheMembre du Label Tout Savoir.

This week on Crack the Book, we move from Rousseau's Social Contract to his Confessions, and let's just say my opinion hasn't improved. Before we get to the books, I share some strategies for getting through a book you don't like (because I needed to take my own advice this week). Then we move on to our two books for the week.In Confession's Book One, Rousseau recounts his early life with all the self-importance of a man convinced he's unlike anyone else who's ever lived. Between tragic beginnings, cruel masters, and an overshare about his youthful “discipline” preferences, I found little humility and even less personal growth. Rousseau insists his passions still rule him—no maturity, not even irony, just Rousseau being Rousseau.Thank goodness we had Voltaire's Candide, a complete tonal shift. This whirlwind satire—part travelogue, part absurdist adventure—follows Candide and his companions through war, earthquakes, El Dorado, and endless misfortune. Yet beneath the chaos lies a sharp moral insight: life's purpose isn't in grand philosophies or endless striving, but in the quiet wisdom to “cultivate our own garden.” The cinematic pacing (that Italo Calvino helpfully points out) is an interesting development, too.Preachy Rousseau and playful Voltaire were a great combination, and Candide was the clear winner of the two. Candide's brisk storytelling and biting humor still feel modern, even cinematic. One book made me roll my eyes; the other made me laugh out loud. Next week: Descartes, Spinoza, and Kant—wish me luck.LINKTed Gioia/The Honest Broker's 12-Month Immersive Humanities Course (paywalled!)My Amazon Book List (NOT an affiliate link)CONNECTThe complete list of Crack the Book Episodes: https://cheryldrury.substack.com/p/crack-the-book-start-here?r=u3t2rTo read more of my writing, visit my Substack - https://www.cheryldrury.substack.com.Follow me on Instagram - https://www.instagram.com/cldrury/ LISTENSpotify - https://open.spotify.com/show/5GpySInw1e8IqNQvXow7Lv?si=9ebd5508daa245bdApple Podcasts - https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/crack-the-book/id1749793321 Captivate - https://crackthebook.captivate.fm

In this episode, we explore emotions in sport from a philosophical perspective. How are philosophical perspectives different from the more established psychological perspectives? How can ideas found in Aristotle, Nietzsche, Hume and Spinoza help us establish a framework to explore emotions in sport? Why are certain emotions and their balance essential for sustaining our sporting culture as we know it today, or could we find a better emotional balance in our individual and collective sporting lives? Our conversation draws heavily on Yunus's book Emotion in Sports: Philosophical Perspectives. Dr Yunus Tuncel teaches Philosophy at The New School, New York, and in New York University's Liberal Studies Programme. He is a co-founder of the Nietzsche Circle and a member of the Editorial Board of its journal The Agonist. Yunus is also the founder of Philomobile, which is a travel organisation offering trips to those interested in studying philosophy on the road (http://www.philomobile.com/). The conversation continues in Part 2 with a focus on more specific emotions such as anxiety, fear, anger and joy in sport. --- Found the episode interesting? Our previous conversation with Yunus can be found here: Part 1, Part 2. Related conversation on risk sports and authentic existence with Prof. Gunnar Breivik is here.
Pensar juntos la cosa. Sobre la coyuntura y más allá. Alejandro Galliano y Diego Singer. Sexto encuentro para abordar el escenario político en el que estamos, sabiendo que es mucho más que el presente lo que se juega en el aquí y ahora. Pensar juntos porque la cosa está difícil. Poniendo en práctica algo de lo que Spinoza afirmaba: no reír, no llorar, no indignarse, sino comprender. 23/8/2025 en JJ Circuito Cultural
At a time of renewed interest in the spiritual, what could challenge the uninspiring notion of ‘cultural Christianity'? One answer is by embracing the esoteric. William Blake, the painter and poet, has become a model for a new kind of rebellious spirituality. Though he spent his life in poverty and obscurity, Blake's radical vision of the divine is now a cornerstone of modern mysticism. Psychotherapist and podcaster Mark Vernon, author of ‘Awake! William Blake and the Power of the Imagination', and religion researcher, Esmé Partridge, talk in a masterclass, hosted by Unherd in London, on the meaning and mythos of Blake.0:00 What world Blake was responding to2:15 What did Blake mean by Newton's sleep?5:28 How did Blake see the natural world?8:30 Why did Blake react against the Christianity of his day?11:50 Understanding “The Garden of Love”13:50 Understanding “The Marriage of Heaven and Hell”16:50 Blake against the ills of today: sentimentality and unforgivingness18:40 The road of excess and erotic desire21:47 Navigating the contrary tensions of life25:15 Blake's mythological figures29:30 What about Los and Jerusalem?32:30 What about Blake's view of politics and revolution?36:50 How do you cleanse the doors of perception?40:20 So in what way was Blake Christian?43:46 How did William and Catherine support themselves?46:52 How do we distinguish between imagination and fantasy?49:51 How can Blake be helpful to modern psychology?52:30 How can Blake help us reach for the eternal?56:10 How can Blake bring meaning to life?57:30 What would Blake make of Nietzsche?1:00:00 What would Blake make of Spinoza?1:01:30 Can we diagnose Blake and his visions?1:03:20 What about Blake and cultural Christianity today?1:05:30 What did Blake make about violence?1:07:43 Can you say more about Catherine Blake?1:09:30 Blake's wit about his visions1:10:54 Can you comment on Blake and Englishness?
Teil 1: Krieg statt FriedenEin Standpunkt von Uwe Froschauer.Ethisch hochentwickelte Kulturen versuchen Krieg zu vermeiden. Diese Sichtweise steht in einer langen, ehrwürdigen Tradition des Denkens. Viele Philosophen, Schriftsteller und spirituelle Lehrer haben betont, dass moralischer Fortschritt untrennbar mit der Abkehr von Gewalt verbunden ist. Eine ethisch hochentwickelte Kultur wird oft daran gemessen, wie sie Konflikte löst – nicht daran, wie sie sie führt.Gewalt – und auch die Reaktion auf Gewalt mit Gewalt – ist immer eine moralische Bankrotterklärung. Frieden ist nicht die Ausnahme, sondern die reife Form menschlichen Zusammenlebens. Diese Reife besitzen die europäischen Kriegstreiber in Ländern wie Deutschland, Großbritannien, Frankreich und Polen derzeit nicht. Empathie und Vernunft, die langfristig die Stabilität einer friedlichen menschlichen Gemeinschaft sichern, fehlen diesen fragwürdigen, unmoralischen Staatenlenkern.„Der Friede ist nicht der Naturzustand, sondern muss gestiftet werden,“gab Immanuel Kant zu bedenken, der dauerhaften Frieden als Ziel der Vernunft und als Resultat einer moralisch und rechtlich gereiften Gesellschaft sah. Albert Einstein verstand Krieg als Ausdruck einer unvollständigen moralischen Entwicklung der Menschheit.„Der Krieg kann menschlich nicht gerechtfertigt werden. Er ist das Scheitern der Vernunft.“Baruch de Spinoza reihte sich ein in den Reigen großer pazifistischer Denker und meinte:„Friede ist nicht Abwesenheit von Krieg, sondern eine Tugend, eine Geisteshaltung, eine Neigung zu Güte, Vertrauen und Gerechtigkeit.“Diese Geisteshaltung fehlt dem „Wertewesten“ seit einiger Zeit. Er ist zu einem „Unwertewesten“ verkommen.Mahatma Gandhi stellte klar, dass Frieden nicht das Ziel nach einem Kampf ist, sondern die Grundlage jeder ethischen Handlung ist.„Es gibt keinen Weg zum Frieden, der Frieden selbst ist der Weg.“Eine zivilisierte, ethisch hochentwickelte Gesellschaft erkennt, dass nicht Krieg sondern Kooperation die einzige vernünftige Form des Zusammenlebens ist. Frieden bedeutet dabei nicht eine Unterdrückung von Konflikten um jeden Preis, sondern eine aktive Gestaltung von Strukturen, die einen gerechten Frieden gewährleisten. Wer Leben in seiner Gesamtheit achtet, kann keinen Krieg rechtfertigen. Wer eine Waffe in die Hand nimmt, und einen anderen tötet, mordet, egal ob als Soldat oder als Zivilist. Wer den Befehl dazu gibt, mordet. Wer junge Menschen via Wehrpflicht dazu zwingen möchte, im Ernstfall zu morden, mordet im Vorfeld, und zerstört eventuell in unverantwortlicher Weise das physische und/oder psychische Leben des als Kanonenfutter dienenden jungen Menschen. Stark ist nicht derjenige, der sagt, er nimmt eine Waffe in die Hand, um sein Land zu verteidigen, sondern derjenige, der den Mut hat, zu sagen, dies nicht zu tun. Starke Menschen vermeiden den Kampf, sie suchen ihn nicht. Frieden haben oder schaffen zu wollen, bedeutet Stärke und Selbstbeherrschung....https://apolut.net/die-entwertung-des-wertewestens-teil-1-von-uwe-froschauer/ Hosted on Acast.

Spinoza gibi erdemli kafir olarak nitelendirilmese de Hannah Arendt, özellikle Eichmann davasında Holokost'un nefretten değil, ilgililerinin sisteme zorunlu itaatinden yani kendilerine verilen emirlere sorgulamaksızın tabi olmalarından kaynaklandığını söylemesiyle Yahudi cemaatinin büyük baskısına maruz kalmıştı.

Et si la fameuse substance, qui est au cœur de la philosophie de Spinoza, n'existait pas ? C'est ce que soutient une thèse philosophique actuelle d'avant-garde : l'anti-substantialisme. En se basant sur les découvertes récentes de la science, les anti-substantialistes affirment que la réalité n'est pas une substance, mais seulement un réseau de relations.

Vallen we uit elkaar zonder gedeelde taal voor het hogere, of kunnen we elkaar vinden in een symbool dat ruimte laat voor verschil? We gaan met Roelof de diepte in over de Opperbouwmeester des Heelals (ObdH) en ontdekken hoe een abstract begrip de loge al eeuwenlang samenhoudt. Niet als dogma, maar als werkbare gemeenschappelijke noemer waar katholieken, protestanten, joden, deïsten en naturalisten elkaar treffen.We schetsen de woelige achtergrond: van scholastiek en Aristoteles' Onbewogen Beweger, via Descartes' radicale twijfel en zijn godsbewijzen, naar Spinoza's één substantie waarin God en natuur samenvallen. Ondertussen rukt de drukpers op, polariseert Europa, en worstelen kerk en kroon met een wereld die steeds rationeler wordt. Juist in die turbulentie ontstaat de vrijmetselarij als seculiere orde met rituele diepte, waarin de ObdH een elegante rol krijgt: rituele taal die betekenis geeft, zónder dat broeders elkaars dogma's hoeven te bestrijden. We verkennen ook de opkomst van het deïsme—God als klokkenmaker—en waarom Anderson's Constitutions (1723) bewust kiezen voor morele overeenstemming boven confessionele uniformiteit.Samen ontrafelen we waarom de toegangseis van een “hoger beginsel” geen theologische lakmoesproef is, maar een morele houding: een mens plaatst zichzelf niet als hoogste maat. De ObdH werkt dan als stille brug tussen overtuigingen, zodat het gesprek kan gaan over karakter, waarheid en maatschappelijke relevantie. Met heldere voorbeelden uit ritueel en comparitie laten we zien hoe een 18e-eeuws idee vandaag nog scherp en bruikbaar is—juist nu polarisatie lonkt en simpele antwoorden verleiden.Aristoteles - https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/AristotelesDescartes - https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ren%C3%A9_DescartesCoccejus - https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Johannes_CoccejusSpinoza - https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benedictus_de_SpinozaDeïsme - https://nl.wikipedia.org/wiki/De%C3%AFsmeSupport the show

In this talk, he combines insights from psychedelic experiences with an intriguing view put forward by Spinoza: that the mind can enter a rare state of eternity, not as a spirit enduring beyond the corpse, but as a mind collapsing into the eternal.Don't hesitate to email us at podcast@iai.tv with your thoughts or questions on the episode!To witness such debates live buy tickets for our upcoming festival: https://howthelightgetsin.org/festivals/And visit our website for many more articles, videos, and podcasts like this one: https://iai.tv/You can find everything we referenced here: https://linktr.ee/philosophyforourtimesSee Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
What do Warren Buffett and Friedrich Nietzsche have in common? Why does Baruch Spinoza's understanding of irrational emotions help explain financial markets? How did Voltaire's success in a bond lottery arbitrage shape his writing? Can David Hume teach an investor when to buck the consensus and when to heed it?Exploring these questions and many others, Ethan A. Everett reveals the surprising lessons we can learn about investing from major philosophers. Demystifying ideas and texts that can often seem intimidating or irrelevant, he shows how philosophical concepts can be fruitfully applied to financial markets. Everett shares how philosophers' insights have informed his development as an investor, and he considers how great investors have embodied philosophical wisdom in their own endeavors.Ranging from the birth of modern securities markets in seventeenth-century Amsterdam to recent trends like meme stocks, this book shows why a philosophical perspective can prove invaluable to challenging common assumptions in finance. Thinkers like Spinoza or Baudrillard are sometimes envisioned as disembodied minds constructing opaque, self-enclosed theoretical systems, but Everett elegantly concretizes their teachings, brings them to bear on our lived experience of the world, and shows how they can help us better appreciate the joys and vicissitudes of the market.

Sterrenkundige Margot Brouwer kampte jarenlang met een verlammende doodsangst, die al begon in diens vroege jeugd. Tijdens Margot's studie sterrenkunde leek de wetenschap diens angsten te bevestigen: er is geen zin, na de dood is er niets. Maar de filosofie van Spinoza bood een ander perspectief: God is het universum zelf, en wij maken daar onlosmakelijk deel van uit. Later leerde een spirituele lerares Margot het leven in het hier en nu te aanvaarden. Dat bevrijdde Margot van diens angst. 'Zonder doodsangst', zegt die, 'is er meer ruimte voor compassie.'
Philosopher and cultural apologist Annie Crawford joins the channel to discuss the unavoidable problem of purpose (teleology) in evolutionary biology. We explore why the modern scientific attempt to reduce life to mindless, mechanistic processes ultimately fails, forcing biologists to use the language of agency and design to describe what they observe. The conversation delves into the history of science, the philosophy of language, and whether life requires a "ghost in the machine" to make sense.Annie Crawford on twitter - https://x.com/annielcrawfordPeople & Concepts Discussed:Annie Crawford, John Vervaeke ( @johnvervaeke ), C.S.

Welcome to the Psychedelic Conversations Podcast!In this episode of Psychedelic Conversations, we sit down with Dr. Peter Sjöstedt-Hughes at the renowned "Breaking Convention" event in the UK. Together, we explore his pioneering work at the University of Exeter, where he co-founded psychedelic studies programs and lectures on philosophy. We discuss his journey into the philosophy of mind, panpsychism, and animism—challenging the dominant materialist worldview by proposing that consciousness pervades all of nature. Dr. Sjöstedt-Hughes shares insights on how psychedelics intersect with ancient philosophical traditions, ecology, and the broader psychedelic renaissance. We also touch on the evolution of public and academic attitudes toward psychedelics and the role of interdisciplinary research in shaping the future. Join us for a thought-provoking conversation that bridges counterculture, science, and spirituality in the growing psychedelic landscape.About Peter:Peter is an Anglo-Scandinavian philosopher of mind who specializes in the thought of Whitehead, Nietzsche, and Spinoza, and in fields pertaining to panpsychism and altered states of mind.

On confond souvent avidité et cupidité, comme si ces deux termes désignaient la même soif insatiable. Pourtant, ils recouvrent des nuances importantes, tant sur le plan psychologique que moral.L'avidité est d'abord un élan intérieur, une pulsion tournée vers la possession ou la consommation. C'est un désir intense, presque animal, d'obtenir toujours plus : plus de nourriture, plus de pouvoir, plus de plaisir. L'avidité se manifeste dans une recherche sans fin, où ce que l'on obtient n'apaise jamais durablement le besoin. Elle peut être matérielle, mais aussi symbolique : une avidité de reconnaissance, d'expériences, d'influence. Le philosophe Spinoza la décrivait déjà comme une passion qui naît du manque et qui s'auto-entretient.La cupidité, elle, est plus précise et plus ciblée. C'est l'amour excessif de l'argent et des richesses matérielles. Être cupide, c'est vouloir accumuler sans relâche de l'or, des biens, des profits, parfois au mépris de l'éthique ou de la justice. Là où l'avidité est une faim généralisée, la cupidité est une obsession particulière pour l'avoir monétaire. Dans l'imaginaire collectif, on pense à l'usurier, au banquier véreux, ou au personnage de l'oncle Picsou, dont la fortune s'accumule dans un coffre géant qu'il ne cesse de remplir.Ces deux notions diffèrent aussi dans leur rapport au monde. L'avidité peut toucher n'importe qui, dans n'importe quel domaine. Un scientifique peut être avide de savoir, un sportif avide de victoires. Cette avidité n'est pas toujours négative : elle peut stimuler la créativité, l'innovation, le dépassement de soi. Mais poussée à l'excès, elle devient destructrice, car elle ne laisse jamais de place à la satisfaction ni à la sérénité. La cupidité, au contraire, porte en elle une connotation presque toujours péjorative. Elle enferme l'individu dans la quête de profit matériel, souvent au détriment d'autrui.On pourrait dire que la cupidité est une forme spécialisée d'avidité : elle en est une branche, centrée sur l'argent. Mais elle a pris dans l'histoire une telle importance morale qu'elle est devenue l'un des sept péchés capitaux du christianisme. L'avidité, elle, ne figure pas dans cette liste, car elle peut encore se décliner sous des formes neutres ou positives.En résumé, l'avidité est une soif sans limite, la cupidité une soif d'argent. L'une peut être moteur ou poison selon le contexte, l'autre est presque toujours perçue comme un vice. Comprendre cette différence, c'est mieux saisir comment nos désirs façonnent nos comportements et parfois nos excès. Hébergé par Acast. Visitez acast.com/privacy pour plus d'informations.

Ines Testoni"Essere eterni"Manifesto contro la morteIl Saggiatore Editorewww.ilsaggiatore.comUna delle cose che abbiamo compreso nel corso della nostra storia è che la morte è, tra tutte, l'esperienza più universale e ineludibile. Eppure, nello stesso momento in cui noi esseri umani abbiamo realizzato la sua esistenza, abbiamo anche iniziato a desiderare il suo superamento. Questo desiderio ha dato vita nei millenni a superstizioni fugaci e religioni millenarie, visioni mistiche e fantasie letterarie, sistemi filosofici complessi e ricerche scientifiche postumane, ma ognuna di queste soluzioni ha finito per alimentare una ulteriore voglia di allontanare i limiti che la biologia ci ha imposto. In queste pagine Ines Testoni ripercorre la tradizione del pensiero occidentale per offrire nuove risposte a un presente assieme colmo di disincanto rispetto alla possibilità di una vita spirituale dopo la morte e ossessionato dalla necessità di sconfiggere il tempo. Ripercorrendo le riflessioni di Parmenide sul nulla assoluto, «impensabile» e «inesprimibile», e gli studi della psichiatra Elisabeth Kübler-Ross sui malati terminali, la sensazione di eternità provata e descritta tra gli altri da Jorge Luis Borges e le conclusioni di Baruch Spinoza o Emanuele Severino, Testoni tenta di individuare una nuova via per superare il terrore dell'annientamento senza finire in derive autoritarie o nichilistiche. Essere eterni è un manifesto per liberarci dall'angoscia della fine. Un invito a ripensare il rapporto tra tempo, morte e trascendenza in modo non dogmatico, riconoscendo attraverso la ragione ciò che siamo davvero: esseri in bilico tra il desiderio di assoluto e la coscienza della nostra fragilità. Perché quando riusciremo a scoprire ciò che ci rende, da sempre, immortali, allora potremo anche trovare un modo radicalmente nuovo di vivere questa esistenza.Ines Testoni (Brescia, 1957) è professoressa di Psicologia sociale e Psicologia delle relazioni di fine-vita, perdita e morte presso l'Università di Padova, dove dirige anche il master Death Studies & the End of Life e il corso di perfezionamento di CAT: Creative Arts Therapies, finalizzato al supporto di persone discriminate. Con il Saggiatore ha pubblicato Il grande libro della morte (2021) e Il terzo sesso (2023).Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarehttps://ilpostodelleparole.it/
Episode 2.42Philosophical Case for the SupernaturalCan miracles be intellectually defended—or are they just wishful thinking in a scientific age?In this follow-up to the theological case for miracles, Zach and Michael explore the philosophical foundations for believing in the miraculous. Drawing from the work of C.S. Lewis, Alvin Plantinga, Richard Swinburne, William Lane Craig, and others, they address classical objections from Spinoza and Hume, explain Bayesian probability, and unpack why Christianity stands or falls on historical miracle claims—especially the resurrection.Covered in this episode:– What qualifies as a miracle (and what doesn't)– Why miracles are necessary for Christian faith– Whether natural laws rule out divine intervention– The failure of Hume's argument against miracles– How probability theory supports miracle testimony– Why Christianity's claims are evidential, not blindIf theism is true, miracles aren't just possible—they're expected. This episode shows why the miraculous still makes philosophical sense.WLC discussing Bayesian Equation: https://www.reasonablefaith.org/question-answer/P90/do-extraordinary-events-require-extraordinary-evidenceThe Book Michael Referenced: Miracles: The Credibility of the New Testament Accounts, https://a.co/d/hjzHvWLFind our videocast here: https://youtu.be/dshfk_jyXj0Merch here: https://take-2-podcast.printify.me/Music from #Uppbeat (free for Creators!):https://uppbeat.io/t/reakt-music/deep-stoneLicense code: 2QZOZ2YHZ5UTE7C8Find more Take 2 Theology content at http://www.take2theology.com

Aujourd'hui, Hervé vous conduit dans le 8e arrondissement de Paris, un des quartiers chics de la capitale, pour faire la connaissance de Fabrice Epstein, un avocat d'affaires pas tout à fait comme les autres ou en tout cas pas tel qu'on les imagine. Tout d'abord, Fabrice est passionné de musique, il écrit d'ailleurs des chroniques sur l'histoire judiciaire de la musique publiées tous les mois dans Rock & Folk. Et si Fabrice n'est pas devenu avocat complètement par hasard, il ne se destinait pas à ce métier en entrant dans une prestigieuse école de commerce parisienne. Et bien qu'ayant décroché son diplôme au barreau de Paris, c'est sans grande conviction qu'il commence par exercer le droit des affaires. Pire, ce métier aurait pu l'ennuyer s'il n'avait pas entrevu la possibilité d'ouvrir son propre cabinet. Malgré sa quarantaine et les premiers cheveux gris qui vont avec, Fabrice conserve l'allure juvénile d'un éternel étudiant, des yeux clairs et un sourire qui donne envie d'engager la conversation. Une conversation au cours de laquelle ce garçon aussi discret qu'érudit, cite le plus naturellement du monde Spinoza, Bismarck, les Marx Brothers ou Bob Dylan. Et d'un point de vue professionnel, Fabrice a une manière bien à lui d'exercer son métier et d'entretenir ses relations avec ses clients. C'est ce que vous allez découvrir en passant la porte d'un immeuble cossu de l'avenue Franklin Roosevelt, puis en foulant l'épais tapis d'une splendide volée d'escaliers pour rejoindre les bureaux de son cabinet.

Thank you for joining us for this in-depth solo lecture from Dr. John Vervaeke, where he continues his exploration of cognition, meaning, and spirit from the perspective of relevance realization and predictive processing. In this talk, John takes us on a journey through the architecture of the mind, explaining how voluntary necessity, scientific idealization, and porous participation form the basis of how we understand ourselves and the world. He unpacks the imaginal dimension of cognition, the deep entanglement of anticipation and rationality, and how the fellowship of the spirit provides an existential framework for collective meaning-making. Drawing from philosophers like Spinoza, Merleau-Ponty, Charles Taylor, and William Desmond, and cognitive scientists like Carl Friston and Andy Clark, John interweaves modern theory with ancient insight to offer a profound vision of how reason, imagination, and love can coexist.

In Against Identity, philosopher Alexander Douglas seeks an alternative wisdom. Searching the work of three thinkers – ancient Chinese philosopher Zhuangzi, Dutch Enlightenment thinker Benedict de Spinoza, and 20th Century French theorist René Girard – he explores how identity can be a spiritual violence that leads us away from truth. Through their worlds and radically different cultures, we discover how, at moments of historical rupture, our hunger for being grows: and yet, it is exactly these times when we should make peace with our indeterminacy and discover the freedom of escaping our selves. Alexander Douglas was born in Canberra, Australia where he studied music and philosophy. He now teaches the history of philosophy and the philosophy of economics at the University of St Andrews. He has published two books on the philosophy of Benedict de Spinoza and one on the philosophy of debt. He has grown increasingly interested in combining ideas from Western and East Asian philosophy.

The Calling to Reorient the Self How can the sacred be recovered in a world fractured by autonomy and fragmentation? In this deeply personal episode of Kainos on The Lectern, recorded during a session hosted by Alexander Beiner on Kainos, John Vervaeke shares reflections from his recent pilgrimage across Europe—what he calls the Philosophical Silk Road. Weaving through sacred conversations and historic locations, he explores profound ideas like theosis, theoria, and voluntary necessity, inviting listeners into a lived philosophy of sacred participation. From Istanbul to Rome to Amsterdam, each location becomes a catalyst for insight and inner transformation. Vervaeke challenges the Enlightenment's idolization of autonomy and points toward a new possibility: a spirituality of finite transcendence, rooted in embodied knowing and dialogical belonging. This episode offers a raw and unfiltered account of mystical experience, intellectual shift, and spiritual disorientation—all in service of rediscovering what it means to be in contact with reality, in its fullest, most sacred form.

For the final episode in our current series on the history of bad ideas, David talks to philosopher Alexander Douglas about the damage that can be done by the idea of identity. Why is the search for a distinctive personal identity such a futile quest? How does it lead to an identity politics of exclusion and violence? What can we learn from the philosopher Spinoza about having an identity without identity? And what can we glean from the experience of dementia about losing ourselves?

In this eye-opening session, Rabbi Yisroel Bernath explores one of the most profound and misunderstood topics of all time: What is G-d? Moving beyond simplistic childhood images of a supernatural sky-being, we delve into Jewish, Chassidic, philosophical, and even scientific perspectives on the Divine. Drawing from thinkers like Einstein and the Alter Rebbe, this class gently unpacks a paradoxical truth: G-d is not less than personal, but also infinitely more than any person. Whether you're a believer, skeptic, or somewhere in between, this is a class that will stretch your mind and open your heart.Takeaways:Not All “G-ds" Are the Same The God that many reject may not be the G-d Torah and Kabbalah actually describe.Beyond Supernatural vs. Natural Judaism sees G-d not as a supernatural being outside nature, but as the source and essence of all existence, both within and beyond nature.Personal and Infinite G-d is not a person, but also not less than personal. The Divine is both the cosmic Author and the intimate Listener.Language & Metaphor Matter The Torah uses varied metaphors to relate to G-d, each revealing a facet, none capturing the whole.G-d Is Experienced, Not Just Explained You may not "prove" G-d like a theorem—but you can encounter G-d in awe, in kindness, in Torah, and in the quiet moments of the soul.#God #theology #thegodquestion #chassidus #Kabbalah #chabad #Spinoza #einstein #jewishphilosophy #Faith #personalgod #infinite #soul Support the showGot your own question for Rabbi Bernath?

Ceci est une lecture améliorée de ma newsletter : Il y a quelques semaines, je me suis surpris à rêver d'acheter un tapis de marche. Assis devant mon écran, je comparais les modèles, je regardais les différentes options (pliables ou pas), comparais les prix. Mais si je suis vraiment sincère avec moi-même, j'ai vu ce tapis de marche chez une amie, je parle beaucoup de mouvement avec mon ami Alex...Si je vous demande ce que vous désirez, vous allez répondre une chose ou une autre.Mais que désirez-vous vraiment ?Combien de fois avez-vous désiré quelque chose parce que votre collègue, votre beau-frère ou cette personne sur Instagram le possédait ? Il peut basiquement s'agir d'un objet mais cela peut aussi être une envie de couple, de vacances, d'enfants ou simplement d'un chien...Trop souvent on désire des « choses » pour combler un vide qui n'avait rien à voir avec l'objet de la convoitise. Combien de fois avez-vous cru vouloir quelque chose alors qu'en réalité, vous ne faisiez que singer les désirs des autres ? Mais surtout combien de fois avez-vous ressenti le vide après avoir acquis l'objet en question.Si ces questions vous dérangent, c'est normal. Elles remettent en cause l'une des illusions les plus tenace de notre époque individualiste : celle que nos désirs nous appartiennent.Qu'ils jaillissent spontanément de notre être le plus authentique. Qu'ils sont le reflet de notre personnalité unique et singulière. Mensonge.Dans cet épisode solo j'explore sans fard ce qui motive nos choix. À travers l'exemple anodin d'un tapis de marche ou d'une montre connectée, je remonte le fil de mes envies. Pourquoi désirons-nous ? D'où viennent ces pulsions ? Et surtout : à qui appartiennent-elles vraiment ?J'ai convoqué René Girard, Bourdieu, Spinoza ou encore Clouscard, mais aussi mes propres expériences – de mes années d'ascension sociale à mes doutes de quadragénaire sur Instagram. J'y parle de capitalisme, de développement personnel, d'authenticité performative, mais aussi de spiritualité.J'ai voulu écrire cette épisode comme une boussole pour moi-même – et peut-être pour vous – dans un monde qui ne cesse de nous souffler quoi vouloir.5 citations marquantes« Nos désirs ont appris à mentir mieux que nous. »« Le désir est l'essence de l'homme, mais il peut aussi être sa prison. »« L'authenticité est devenue un produit de consommation comme un autre. »« Nous courons après des désirs qui ne sont pas les nôtres. »« Désirer ce que l'on a déjà, c'est peut-être ça la vraie liberté. »10 questions structurées posées (ou implicites)Qu'est-ce que je désire vraiment ?Pourquoi ai-je envie de tel objet ou telle expérience ?Mes désirs sont-ils vraiment les miens ou ceux des autres ?Pourquoi continue-t-on de courir après des choses qui nous laissent vides ?Quelle est la différence entre plaisir immédiat et joie profonde ?Pourquoi les désirs des adultes sont-ils parfois plus pernicieux que ceux des jeunes ?Quel rôle joue notre classe sociale dans la fabrication de nos désirs ?Comment savoir si un désir est authentique ?Pourquoi l'industrie du développement personnel ne nous aide-t-elle pas à mieux nous connaître ?Comment orienter nos désirs plutôt que les subir ?Timestamps clés pour YouTube00:00 – Introduction : le tapis de marche et l'origine du désir04:30 – Le grand mensonge du désir autonome10:00 – L'âge adulte et ses désirs déguisés15:40 – L'illusion de la réussite et de l'accumulation20:10 – Le piège du mimétisme selon René Girard25:00 – Clouscard, Bourdieu et la fabrique sociale des envies30:00 – Désir, insatiabilité et dopamine35:20 – L'obsession moderne de l'authenticité40:45 – Mes 5 critères pour reconnaître un vrai désir48:00 – Vers un art du désir conscient et libérateur Suggestion d'autres épisodes à écouter : [SOLO] Atrophie sociale : anatomie d'une manipulation de masse (https://audmns.com/UouEwvn) Vlan #51 (VF) Hacker votre cerveau pour être heureux avec Mo Gawdat (https://audmns.com/vPjaTsU) [SOLO] Gâcher du temps est un acte de résistance (https://audmns.com/YGGCTKa)Distribué par Audiomeans.
