Dr Seuss would be the greatest philosopher who ever lived

There's no such thing as tangible truth without pure logic. All the works of Bacon are possible only because of aristotelian laws of logic and no contradiction. There's no exclusion between the two.

Plato the father of western philosophy and all of its flaws.

His philosophy overlaps a lot with Euclid. Likely “borrowed” like much of the time

Epictetus freed himself internaly first then he freed himself externaly himself

He is confused. He is attributing the "evil" in Man to Nature. If Nature is God and God is Nature, then God is as Evil as Man's Nature.

damn

Who determines the questions, tests and what the "correct" answers are? There is a built in bias depending on who's utopian plan this is and how-why they created it. Excellent thought experiment and worth reading-evaluating Plato's Republic.

There should be a test or screening process for voting for officials. Just like jury selection. How can we just by chance hope our rulers will be best qualified? In the latest trump dibalical , here clearly is a maniac trying to seek revenge , for the actions he is accused of. His deliberate attempt to over throw an election causing death and destruction should not go unpunished, yet blind followers who despise democrats choose to support a felon as their leader? Hatred of another party should not be your reasoning for political leadership. Every voter should not be a blind follower of a particular party. The issues are what’s important for all peoples, not just for a few, and trust.

I’ve recently discovered this underrated channel, your videos are marvellous. Thank you for making this, keep up the great work!

You could see in his pre-madness writings something of the lunacy that led to his final madness.

N doesn't understand Buddhism. Alas...

The idea of the Multiverse rejects the empiricism of Sir Francis Bacon and returns us to the philosophical imagination of aristotelianism

Greek philosophy tends to excite the dumbest of the dumb.

Quote, "Fortunately or rather, unfortunately his time in the military was so short that he had no time to become disillusioned wth it". What is there to be disillusioned with?

Thank you so much, I'm kind of glad I dropped my philosophy unit (had issues with lecturer), it all makes sense now! Subscribed!

From loser to legend.

I started with Albert Camus a couple years ago, after reading his books, i went do dostojevski, and now im reading Nietschze and i just bought 2 books about philosophy in general to become more familiar with the jargon ( epistemology, metaphysica, monisme, dualisme, ontology etc .) I also watch a lot of video's on youtube from alex' o connor kosmic skeptic and Sabine hossenfelder. Sabine's one is about quantumphysics but it deals with some philosophical issues aswell , like , what is consiousness etc

The world would be a better place if every human were introduced to the Stoics and Spinoza

He seems more like Aristotle than Socrates

Esoteric 😢

Was Plato psychic? 🤔Hmmm

Contrary to popular belief, Bruno was not burned at the stake for his scientific assertions. He was burned for his heretical beliefs. He didn't believe in the basic tenets of Christianity.

Building Utopia.....shows picture of dystopian city.

Thank you! Cause, Principle, and Unity is quite readable and FUNNY! And it’s a beautiful vision and deep precursor to Spinoza’s Ethics. 👍

The spider story was chilling.

" I am reminded of a great German philosopher, Immanuel Kant. He is a specimen of those people who are absolutely in the mind. He lived according to mind so totally that people used to set their watches, whenever they saw Immanuel Kant going to the university. Never - it may rain, it may rain fire, it may rain cats and dogs, it may be utterly cold, snow falling … Whatever the situation, Kant will reach the university at exactly the same time all the year round, even on holidays. Such a fixed, almost mechanical … He would go on holiday at exactly the same time, remain in the university library, which was specially kept open for him, because otherwise what would he do there the whole day? And he was a very prominent, well-known philosopher, and he would leave the university at exactly the same time every day. One day it happened … It had rained and there was too much mud on the way - one of his shoes got stuck in the mud. He did not stop to take the shoe out because that would make him reach the university a few seconds later, and that was impossible. He left the shoe there. He just arrived with one shoe. The students could not believe it. Somebody asked, “What happened to the other shoe?” He said, “It got stuck in the mud, so I left it there, knowing perfectly well nobody is going to steal one shoe. When I return in the evening, then I will pick it up. But I could not have been late.” A woman proposed to him: “I want to be married to you” - a beautiful young woman. Perhaps no woman has ever received such an answer, before or after Immanuel Kant. Either you say, “Yes,” or you say, “No. Excuse me.” Immanuel Kant said, “I will have to do a great deal of research.” The woman asked, “About what?” He said, “I will have to look in all the marriage manuals, all the books concerning marriage, and find out all the pros and cons - whether to marry or not to marry.” The woman could not imagine that this kind of answer had ever been given to any woman before. Even no is acceptable, even yes, although you are getting into a misery, but it is acceptable. But this kind of indifferent attitude towards the woman - he did not say a single sweet word to her. He did not say anything about her beauty, his whole concern was his mind. He had to convince his mind whether or not marriage is logically the right thing. It took him three years. It was really a long search. Day and night he was working on it, and he had found three hundred reasons against marriage and three hundred reasons for marriage. So the problem even after three years was the same. One friend suggested out of compassion, “You wasted three years on this stupid research. In three years you would have experienced all these six hundred, without any research. You should have just said yes to that woman. There was no need to do so much hard work. Three years would have given you all the pros and cons - existentially, experientially.” But Kant said, “I am in a fix. Both are equal, parallel, balanced. There is no way to choose.” The friend suggested, “Of the pros you have forgotten one thing: that whenever there is a chance, it is better to say yes and go through the experience. That is one thing more in favor of the pros. The cons cannot give you any experience, and only experience has any validity.” He understood, it was intellectually right. He immediately went to the woman’s house, knocked on her door. Her old father opened the door and said, “Young man, you are too late. You took too long in your research. My girl is married and has two children.” That was the last thing that was ever heard about his marriage. From then on no woman ever asked him, and he was not the kind of man to ask anybody. He remained unmarried."

I had a well known psychic channeler tell me that I was Francis Bacon in my past life. I didn’t know who he was but when I looked him up I realized how similar our topics of thinking were. It gave me chills. Now I’m reading a book called “Flow” by Mihaly C and he brings up Francis Bacon. This type of phenomenons and synchronicities tend to happen to me a lot.

I do not want to be a hero or a villain. l am not trying to be a good person or a bad person. l am exactly the kind of person l need to be in any given situation. lf l'm good or bad in that situation is not for me to say but for an outside observer. If 100 people observe me in that situation they will create 100 different ideas about how good or bad a person l am. None of their observations change the reality of who l am.

One of the most important men in human history. Thank you!

it sounds, to me, like ancient philosophers would really hate liberals.

Dogma and dog mom’s… wait… eh… my mom is awesome… yet… oh geeze… let’s play cards? Breathe ya’ll… it’s not easy

Fascinating works of better over time and space of better.

Whosoever is delighted in solitude, is either a wild beast or a god. 🕊️ Aristotle

Im currently reading the Ethics. To contrast Ive read lots of stuff. Hard technical, boring, in foreign languages, etc. Feel like this dude is just rambling with jargon. What am i missing?

Money and control. It’s always the same thing. Boring.

There are two options to go about determinism 1) Deny its existence and embrace full responsibility of moral acts, 2) Follow your own moral values while acknowledging it is a product of your unique life experience and not objective rules. About why striving for anything in life, well let's just picture life as roller coaster ; you have ups and downs and all you're supposed to do is enjoying the ride. That doesn't make life duller, just great in a different perspective, just like some may love a song for its meaning and others for the musical composition.

Plato was gay

I believe in G-d because of Spinoza. "And if there were to be an 'e' at the beginning of my name, then all things are proven."

If it wasn't for our discovery of the finite age of the Universe via the Big Bang, this would be the default position to believe. Democritus was way ahead of his time.
