No videos in a year, hope you're okay, Professor. I can't help but notice you stopped uploading in the heart of the pandemic. I hope we'll hear from you again and get to learn from you again. You matter and your contributions are valuable. Hoping you and your family are well and safe. Much love from Montreal.
Hey Adam - I found this book in the garbage today and picked it up. Tried reading some of it and it seems interesting. Looked it up on TH-cam for some supplemental info about the book and found your video. I'm almost 20 years past college and work a pretty intensive working class job. My brain is thirsty for knowledge. I wish I could take one of your classes. Thanks for posting these videos. Next best thing, I guess.
A great example of reflection is from Scrubs the last season, no not when the new cast arrives. JD begins to reflect upon all of the things that he has experience has he leaves Sacred Heart and when he get outside he stands their and begins to reflect on what could be in the future while watching a film.
In min 24:00 the problem you mention is analog to Russel's paradox regarding the all sets that contain themselfs that in it's turn can be the agostinian notion (in the Trinity) that we can only see God's back... Same problem with the actual infinite since we only articualt the potential infinity.
I'm not a student of any kind, just some random on the internet, but can you do a lecture on the Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus? Cuz I've been struggling to read it and I can't make any sense out of it.
Locke's belief and argument that there are no innate ideas can easily be refuted. The notion, sense, and experience of a self separate from everything else is innate to all living beings from the very moment that they "began to exist". The idea of a self separate from everything else may be very crude in a newborn or in an organism that lacks higher cognition, but it is nevertheless innate to all organisms. Volition requires the subjectivity of a sense of self separate from everything else. So by definition, all living organisms must have it from the very moment of birth. Additionally, Parmenidean Ontology irrefutably proves through Pure Reason that everything is Eternally Existent. So in a sense, all ideas are "innate". But I am equivocating. The concept of innate doesn't make logical sense in the understanding of Parmenidean Ontology. Since everything is eternally existent by virtue of the non existence of Non Existence, there are no preceding moments in time for the notion of innate (existing since birth) to have any truth in the metaphysical sense. All moments in time are equally present all of the time. This is to say to speak of ideas (or anything) being innate or not innate is foolish, because all moments in time are eternally existent.

I'm not one of your students, but do you teach personal identity? If so, do you have a lecture on your channel?

he keeps referring to stefan molyneux when he definitely means william molyneux. stefan is a considerably less worthwhile thinker!
Quite right! My mistake!
