Why DID Cudworth think Descartes's doctrine of the creation of the eternal truths smelled like atheism? blog.kennypearce.net/archives/philo…
2 Tim 3:16. “All scripture is inspired….” Which documents did the author have in mind? Can we know?
In many years time when you look back on your behaviour, a lot of you are gonna feel very proud that you identified the real problem with the current moment (students taking up too much space on campus lawns) and spent your time moralising about that. Good job.
Me: “I think it’s bad that some people in this country are made to live without shelter.” Twitter reply: “Ok, but how do you respond to the fact that libertarianism is true?”
It is worth watching this CNN video from the moment Emory Econ Professor @CarolineFohlin came across the violent arrest of a protester on campus and asked the police, with shock, "What are you doing?" That's all that prompted an officer to hurl her to the ground and handcuff her.

stressful times lately, relying on friends, family, music and philosophy 😎
(1) Whatever has mass also has weight. (2) The universe has mass. Therefore, (3) The universe also has weight. “Weight” makes no sense when applied to the universe as a whole. Asking what “caused” the universe (eg the Kalam) might be like asking how much the universe weighs.
a previous sin proves...a hindrance to this correction....on account of the rebuker's pride; when, for instance, a man thinks lightly of his own sins, &... sets himself above his neighbor, judging the latter's sins with harsh severity, as though he himself were just man. ~Aquinas
can’t stop thinking about charlottesville and how white nationalists just waltzed through UVA’s campus with tiki torches shouting the most terrifying shit, *after* one of them slammed a car into a crowd and killed someone, and yet there is not one uniformed officer in this photo
Btw, 1 Timothy and Titus are fake Pauline epistles.
Welcome to Twitter where white Christian men have convinced themselves they are the most oppressed people on the planet!
Well girl, why did you put them there in the first place???
The American healthcare system is so messed up with insurance refusing to pay, no price transparency, unaffordable for many, people die as a result. Meanwhile the presidential elections are about how mentally fit or old the presidential candidates are. What a mess.

He/Him Views are my own.@JoshuaLWatson @KennethLPearce I agree that Plato didn't commit himself to mathematical facts depending on God, although Plotinus and his crew may have committed themselves to mathematical facts depending on the One
@JoshuaLWatson @KennethLPearce I didn't think we were talking about Plato; I thought we were talking about mathematical platonists (which may not include Plato) who were also theists in the Abrahamic tradition (which definitely does not)
@JoshuaLWatson @KennethLPearce I'd have thought it was the platonists rather than the anti-platonists who'd get pushed into math depending on the divine intellect, since all things depend on God and platonists are the ones who think math is constituted by things; the history of philosophy is full of surprises
@JoshuaLWatson @KennethLPearce This line of thought seems to involve the premise that (at least given divine simplicity) mathematical facts depend on God's intellect; is that right and if so where does that premise come from
Let's cancel someone. Make sure they are problematic though so we can be sure they deserve it.

"Existence is not a predicate/ property of things" (kant, Russell, quine, etc, etc). Kind of deep when you think about it. Existence is not something that some things have and other lack (like redness). #philosophy #metaphysics
What is it for something to exist? Can the notion be defined, or is it a primitive notion? #philosophy #metaphysics
