I dunno you guys but I am here since the first episode of The Book Club back in 2019 or so and this is, *BY FAR,* my favorite PragerU show and one of my favorite shows overall. Knowles really reads minds, I can not think of a single book he reviewed that is not worth to be in ANY respectable personal library nowadays. You are a jewel and this show is a jewel. Mad respect from Canada 🇨🇦
My school is literally called “Trivium Prep - Great Hearts Schools” and hat you said is literally our school motto lolol (it's a charter school). God bless and be with you :DDD! ✝️
Thanks for subbing into our lives as virtual friends of virtue for those of us trapped in morally and socially impoverished cultures that can't generate incarnate friends of virtue naturally.
@@estelerundil4497 I hadn't thought of it that way, but you have a point! May you find real, live friends of high moral character to befriend, my dear. 💛 Unsolicited advice from a person of advancing years 😁: I have found most of my friends who fit this description in homeschooling circles and at my church, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. In both of these places, people who care about truth, character, and education can be found. Best of luck to you finding your people. 💛
Aristotle's concept of eudamonia seems more exactly translated as well-being or good-spiritedness. But using the word happiness provides for a starker contrast against the version of happiness that current and modern culture aim their sights at.
Excellense is never an accident. It is the wise choice of many alternatives. Its choice, not chance that determines your destiny - Aristitotle. Dont remember which one. There are differnt ones related to our choices. But it might have been this one or «on the soul». And the word «virtue» in his time could also mean «excellense» in his time. We know Plato referred to excellense in the same word for virtue
Surprisingly good video by PragerU. Man, I wonder what kind of political and economic beliefs they advocate. Surely it would be ones that would promote ensure developing material conditions to the best of society's abilities since material needs are recognized in this video as an important prerequisite. Surely one that would promote social cohesion and friendship among people as well. Surely they would support a system taht is based on looking towards the greater good and not one that relies on divisive individualism which was recognized as a danger in this video.
There is a need here to get the foundation right, because sadly one is building on sand otherwise. Here it is: 'Then an official asked Jesus, "Good Teacher, what must I do to inherit eternal life?" "Why do you call me good?" Jesus asked him. "Nobody is good except for God"'. Did you get it? "Nobody is good except for God". That's where Aristotle should have started. That's where the discussion should have started.
Come on. Aristotle long preceded Christianity. Many of the Church Fathers and later theologians valued Aristotelian ethics as they preserved Greek philosophy and integrated it with Christian belief.
@@RYwoodview "Substituted" is the better word. That's scholasticism, and people like Thomas Aquinas exacerbated the matter, turning Christianity into a structural mess of the habitus/actus fidei combination.

Civilization building knowledge like this is fascinating, not boring!
Thanks for the reminder...read this too many years ago. Good timing at Thanksgiving.
Good - true & the beautiful
Bonum, pulchrum, trivium

For your next book club you should have Jordan Peterson on to talk about the Gulag Archipelago.
‼️
The book is currently winging it's way to me as we speak. I'm just here getting a pre-read heads-up on what to expect.
I truly enjoy the book club discussions. Thank you, gentlemen, for reading, understanding, and sharing Aristotle's masterpiece! 👏👏👏

Aristotle said that "a good life" was the goal, not happiness.
These are synonymous in Aristotle. Living well is nothing other than eudaimonia, happiness, understood in the qualified Aristotelian sense.
Bro what

Ah yes, Aristotle, the destroyer of Christianity. Not a very good idea to promote such a pernicious fellow.
