I really appreciate your clarity of speach, your explanations and the well organized topics. There are many philosophic terms that I've been hearing and now I'm understanding its concepts and where they set in. Thank you, Dr. Barry. You are been listened from south Brazil.

I've battled with understanding philosophical concepts, but all my problems ended the moment I saw this video, thanks a lot for the effort ☺️.

The greatest lesson I learnt in this video, is the fact that bad attempts lead to bad temptation but proper care for information and resources drives to divinity.

Hi I’m loving your videos! I thought a possible solution for the determinism free will problem, is that there is free will, but it freely follows always exactly the deterministic outcome. Free will is weird anyway. You can choose to act to what you want, but you can’t choose what it is you want. You can ofcourse change what you want. But the changing must then be motivated by another want. I don’t really get the desire for free will, you’d have the ability to change your core motivation. But what for? Shouldn’t there be a motivation to want to change that? My solution is to see free will as a contained thing. An idea, that to assume that it exists, is practical for morality and adds meaning to life, but limited to your body and mind. Your conciousness might not be responsible for the crime, but your body and mind is, and we choose how to deal with bodies and minds for societal benefit.
