That's not a question that's wordplay yes he can create a stone he cannot lift and still lift it and Both God and an omnipotent stone cannot coexist

Great video. That's funny monkey given time can write Shakespeare was a good laugh. If I'm not mistaken monkeys been around a very long time and they have yet to show any shade of evidence of accomplishing anything human-like without it being taught and trained to do it. But mankind has been created in the image of God'this is why we are more advanced than any other thing created on Gods green earth.

The reason objective morality hasn't been discovered is because not everyone knows everything We can gain more knowledge about ethics but people can be wrong about what they think they know and people can be unaware of things they don't know.

"Sophie's World" is the book that got me interested in philosophy at all. So good job putting it at #1!

Apparently there’s a book called collective effervescence, but you can find this topic built on. Group think, non dualism, theosis, divinization (Catholicism). In the simplicity of the Bible: where two or three are gathered in my name, I am there. The thesis is in participation. I tell of God to the individualistic spirit and it surrenders by coming to knowledge of God. It has its agency but feels a strong pull against God usually by attachments such as unforgiveness, and lack of repentance. The part of self as individualistic has been acknowledged, so has the collective. How then is the movement? God within context of different worship locations. Particularly I am individualistic in Christianity as my religion via Catholicism. But I carry my awareness of God via worship seeing his absence interiorly as reflective on what’s around me and those natural disconnections through the people around me because I can do a dialectic of where I am to where I now go, and where I was (atheist) synthesized with my coming to faith now.

Comic book Thanos is a deeply philosophical character with very different motivations and beliefs, and he'd be worth a look. He's even more of a psycho, but he's got existentialist and nihilistic reasons for everything he does. Of course, lots of comic book villains do philosophy better than the movies; even Ra's Al Ghul has been doing the "genocide for the greater good" thing since the 70s, and he did it better. I dislike the MCU Thanos because his logic is dumb (overpopulation DOES NOT WORK THAT WAY), and I don't like how the writers dodge the ethical issue they've brought up by implying he's ultimately just a narcissist with PTSD and nobody addresses the flaws in his plans other than characters just being repulsed by his solution, and admittedly I do think the evil and more dangerous comic version is better anyway.

Philosophy students learn to question and dissect different moral systems and are introduced to the idea that there is no good or evil and all morality is relative or even non-existent...so yes, they would make great politicians or corporate salespeople.

it just means a certain degree of balance between one and the other, innit.

There are somethings that God didn't need to create because somethings are simply going to exist due to the existence of God himself. Take time for example, time is something that God didn't need to create because time exists due to God's existence, God calls it eternity from his perspective of things. When God created space and matter a timeline within time itself (eternity) or branching off from time itself (eternity) was created for space and matter due to God bringing space and matter into existence. God is outside the timeline of the universe, but he is not outside time itself (eternity).

Leap of faith or acceptance of fate.

Great collection! I've read all of these books over the years, big fan of Dostoyevsky, the only. exception is the entry for Philip K. Dick. Just finished Shopies World a couple of weeks ago. Fabulous story. My only change to the order would be 1984 as number 1. The importance of this novel cannot be overstated. Especially now with AI coming and the incessant propaganda from business or government entities. Conformist agendas are screaming at us daily. One must have the intellectual armour in order to survive. Well done. 🇨🇦

People debate this???

Really fascinating theory.

The problem is that we assume that death is the end of life. Death is not the end nothing never ends

Wonder why they call Th-Anus the Mad Titan?????

Never compromise. Even in the face of Armageddon

Love these little debates. Really interesting!

"Atlas Shrugged" isw a crock of shit, and cannot be taken seriously. She preached against heklping anyone., but died dependent on government support and charity.

The place I go to makes you put in a coin to get the shopping cart and returns the coin to you only if you return the cart. If this proposition is true then society has failed the test.

Russell was an alien

Simple solution: minimize suffering instead of maximizing pleasure.

Suppose there is no conscioussness left in the World... Does the number two still exist ? If I answer yes am I a realist and if so what kind ? If I answer no am automatically a nominalist ? I'm just confused.

Wouldn't stores just make collecting the carts part of the duties of the regular staff? (also, the Shopping Cart Problem and the Trolley Problem being different causes mild confusion for us British folk).

You can call it whatever BS you want to call it.. You'll never stay true to what you are.

I disagree with the last criticism. I don't think virtue ethics is necessarily selfish. In fact, one of the main Aristotelian dictums is that humans are necessarily political animals. That means, they fulfill their potential by participating in the Polis decision-making process. There is no possible way they could do this if their only concern was about themselves.

There is also axiom in modal logic axion s5

Wouldn’t the ontological argument have to be true? Because there is no other argument that I know of that explains necessary existence

Der Inhalt an sich ist ja gut, aber kacke Stimme…. Unbearable

I was an Atheist a few years ago. Science was my answer to anything and everything. I was going trough a tough time and a few friends of mine got me to try LSD. I dont know why i just accepted (i didnt do drugs back then). Itmade me think more about me and my situation, where i am in life and where i want to go. After a few trips i had somethin akin to an ego death. I could define the border between myself, my body, the trees and the ground. After the effects wore off i started to understand what i had felt in that moment. Unity. I talked to atheists and religous people alike and found that theres nothing really seperating them in the fundamental parts of their world views. If you relize that science is just theories built on more theories built on subjective observation, there is nothing prohibiting god. All the core physical attributes we attribute to god are present in the universe itself. I for my part just added god into the equation in a way that doesnt change anything.

Is the God explanation not just a convoluted way to describe an external material world?

Yeah rationalism tells me if "a" is equal to "c" and "c" is equal to "b", then "a" must be equal to "b". Therefore it can be said that a=b=c. I don't need to have data from my senses or machines to deduce this. Logical deductions are rationalism. But arriving at moral conclusions through conjecture and subjective emotions is a danger. There are also dangers in empiricism in that without a rationalist approach, we can easily end up misinterpreting the data we have gathered, like some kind of machine that decides to wipe out most of humanity to help a few survive. Rationalism is the DISCERNMENT we need to interpret and apply empirical data

So what bout all possible evil in spiritual realm and earth

So many idiots use this

Informative video, but some of your examples could be better. What fallacy is that?

excellent, you did a lovely job guys. this is how philosophy should be instructed. thank you guys.🙏🙏🙏

but is there only one self

6:50 duty is only the baseline, moral aituations are the exception. The example was brought up as if you have to save a life everyday.

You're so good at explaining things. Pantheism is definitely fascinating.

One thing most people don't really realize is that there are different types of pantheists. The naturalist/scientific Pantheists are Atheists in all but name. Basically, it's just Atheism but with Religious and Spiritual language thrown in. The other kind is the New Age Pantheist which sees God as a type of mystical energy that permeates throughout the entire universe and that we are all part of this energy called God. These two types of Pantheists have radically different worldviews and such. Their only overlap is they see everything as connected. The New Age Pantheists generally believe in reincarnation and karma and psychic abilities and such. The naturalistic pantheists don't believe in any of that. It's just kind of interesting how they are almost opposites yet both use the same term.

I don't think that today we believe the Universe came out of nothingness. We don't yet know how the Universe came about though we have theories. It's ok to say you do not know.

How about Schrödinger's cat The cat will be both dead and alive until someone looks in the box. 😂😂

The Fallacy Fallacy scenario made me giggle. Whoever denies the fact that exercise is good for you might not be all there mentally. <--Is this a fallacy?

I have elements of pantheism in my faith. Although I am more of a deist!

I genuinely dont know if John is a real guy, or just you doing a voice

A Song of Brains and Vats

where is the rest?

*Big Picture Question ?* _If everyone took the same action that I did, would the world be better off, or worse off ?_

*Hire more people to return chopping carts ?* That costs the store more money, which they just pass on to the consumer, with higher food prices. _Pay more for your food,_ because you can't show a tiny bit of courtesy.

imagine you were born as blind and deaf at the same time, what do you guys think your reality would be?

WORDS create REALITY
