How?

@@hanskung3278 are you resentful or something?

@@ds6427 Not this morning but I am curious.

@@hanskung3278 I don't think your how was asked out of curiosity. It was more like a statement about what you believe, and I'm not going to entertain that, because you're probably going to just rant all your biased opinions out and you won't change your mind anyway. Why don't you think about, how I came to the conclusion that these lectures are life changing, and draw your own opinions.

@@ds6427 I think you are reading to much into a simple question, How?

Agreed. Sugrue is the closest thing to Meister Eckhart than anyone has ever been.

Lmao. You know that sentence is gonna hit just like that first sip feeling

🤣🤣🤣🤣exactly!

Although the Roman Catholic Church was established after the Roman Empire which shows a great amount of evolution becoming an organized power which had a military to enforce their authority but coming from a world of lawlessness they must've been hard on those they ruled because people didn't respect anything else but the rod of power being evil to their enemies is for love of their own in my opinion but these peasants having no power being forced into servitude shows how much the generation's had suffered from the power who put Jesus to death they had to change their reputation and the relationship between the rich and the poor by putting people to the test of obedience through the church which had become a central power but instead of Emperor's they crowned King's the Senator's becoming aristocracy in my opinion they created a separation of power's plus added a middle class being the nobility lessening the peasantry within the cities to begin a rural people who weren't under the impressions other's had been in the city till Christianity makes it's presence rivaling Catholics although they've learned from the Catholics they had to make a difference between the two but from 1 spirit they evolved into nations (language and culture) under God adapted to the word of God rather than fall into a vagabond in the cities from rural areas they caught onto the testing of the spirit although it seemed cruel they had to make it a trend to find a true lover of christ who then would become a man like Christ in spirit and would perform miracles for his own people as Jesus helped those he came across and taught the word of God. It's the process humanity has taken on those who had been without form as the language is formed by letters to create a word and gives life to a person, place or thing as God extended for man to have rule over the world and name everything in it. I might sound like a know it all saying so while whoever reads this could have some use for it or you could already have known it just seemed like you could understand what I'm saying as many people wouldn't have but get offended as if I'm trying to educate them and I'm just saying in detail because everything in function has detail people just get exhausted easily and would rather accept a short and sweet tickling of the ears being complicated is too much these day's as Jesus was a complicated man to understand.

Dad said he never had a career and he never came up for tenure at Princeton or anywhere else.

Watts and Tolstoy?

Who are Alan and Leo? Links please. 🙏

@@galo2099 Given the original comment's mention of Chicago, I believe they are referring to Leo Strauss, a classical political philosopher educated there (more on him here en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Leo_Strauss), and Allan Bloom (editing in his wikipedia as well as I just realized I forgot to link it earlier: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allan_Bloom) , despite him being a 2 L's Al(l)an, another classicist and philosopher who studied under Strauss among others and taught at Chicago during his career. Bloom also authored "The Closing of the American Mind", which was quite a sensation at the time, enough that I had heard of it before looking it up although it was far before my time.

That was the fashion back then. It wasn't filmed yesterday.

I think it fits perfectly. I like that a little better than the micro suits popularized by Joseph Gordon Levitt

Yet to be determined

@@dr.michaelsugrue part two for Christmas? That would be fitting!

Title says Part 1, the actual video says Part 2. Hard to know which one is the mistake.

Wokeism? Invented by fascists to try to get rid of things they don't like.

If you think that's what he actually did.

@@pipster1891 what would be a better hypothesis

I’d say he’s a folgers man XD

Why didn't I think of that? Let me ponder.

The possibilities are endless "tianac" BUT then your possibilities defy the plan of God. He is in control, not us.

Richard?

Very interesting. Can you elaborate a little more

@@Verulam1626 We must choose and then forget our choice. Over and over within our own lifetimes, no reincarnation necessary. We find ourselves making the same mistakes, even watching ourselves do it. The only hope is to move up in our knowledge and orient our lives, habits, choices accordingly.

@@mills8102 I see. Yes. Continence. Also Aristotle's understanding of Hexis and Phronesis.

@@mills8102 relates a lot to the debate as to whether good works precede or proceed from faith, or both

@@Verulam1626 I have not read Aristotle. I think I ought to after looking up these terms.

?????

Where did it all go wrong?

Very few. It is easier to be a slave and pretend that one is not, than to do the work of self-emancipation.

@@markfisher6404 and it is most appropriate to know that one is a slave and to openly acknowledge it

Says you.

@@pipster1891 yep I did say that. Good job Pipster. You get an A+ for paying attention

Jesus was manufactured to the position of God by men, none of whom are more culpable of this than Paul. "Christianity is the religion of Paul, not of Jesus". - Thomas Jefferson, who called Paul the first great corruptor of Jesus's true doctrines

​@@nanashi7779no evidence of paul convert to Christianity in 33 AD three years after Resurrection so he was persecute Christians after he is converted he took tradition of apostles in so he didn't invented anything and he meet disciples

Eucharist is not that hard to understand i recommend this video kzfaq.infoo1-Fjs2MzrE?si=__MWGW180CU17m97. You can read early father's about Eucharist

To me it seems like passion for what he's talking about. Kinda like when you're talking about a hobby of yours you can ramble on forever. Except this guy knows his sh**

@@markr4619 he approaches the elucidation of any topic with the same direct and passionate tone… sort of an omniscience in his tone but he seems humble

You're right my friend. It started as a Jewish heresy. Bullseye. Roll another.

Are you being naughty Dr Sugrue? Your comment made me laugh. Nothing stirs the pot more than theological (for use of a better word) differences. For me, I'm going to focus on Jesus and his message and the hope of daily redemption.

May the spirit of the truth find you and fill your heart

@@FloMj BLIOUA..............AMEN!

No, its what Judaism is to Akhenaten's solar cult

What are you talking about bro

Hi Lee Barry. What would you know? Your statement is illogical and demonstrates your ignorance of the New Testament. Go back to school please!

@@user-gl9jd3ih8h There are some differences between what Jesus taught and what Paul taught. Jesus was an apocalyptic Jew who mainly preached, in the synoptics at least, getting right with God before the end times and to repent. Paul taught faith was what you needed for salvation though Jesus.

@@jonfromtheuk467 you're missing the point. Paul was a disciple of Jesus. There is only one religion. Jesus Christ. It's faith AND good works that bring salvation. Jesus spoke about repentance. Jesus was not an "apocalyptic" Messiah. He died for our sins so we could have eternal life.

@@user-gl9jd3ih8h wrong on a few fronts - 1) Paul was never a disciple of Jesus. He never met him in the flesh. The terms disciple and apostle mean two different things 2) there are in fact many, many religions , perhaps you missed out the word "true" but thats just your assertion. 3) You obviously have your bible goggles on, most biblical scholars , most of whom are Christian, would agree with me that he was an apocalyptic Rabbi..... you even said it yourself people according to Jesus, 'needed to repent' but why? Because he preached the Gods Kingdom was about to happen and to get yourself right with God. i,e. an apocalyptic Jew! I dont think he died for our sins and I think vicarious redemption is a an immoral concept anyhow as it denies justice.
