What a wonderful address. And I was equally impressed with the quality of the young people's perceptive and well articulated questions.

Regarding the question asked about how controversial group selection is: Stephen J. Gould, noted early in the lecture as an example of an atheist evolutionary biologist, was a major pioneer and proponent of multi-level selection. Not bringing his name up again was a missed opportunity bordering on injustice! I hasten to add that overall I agree with and enjoyed the talk.
@samuelwilkinson1Ай бұрын
Thanks for pointing this out. I didn't realized how much he advocated multilevel selection theory. I've mostly heard it attributed to David Sloan Wilson. I find this interesting because, as you may know, Gould was fairly outspoken in his criticism of sociobiology (from E. O. Wilson, also a prominent proponent of group selection), at least when it first came out in the 1970s. I'm not sure if he softened a bit on it as the years went on.

The Beautiful comes first, it is immediate, immaculate, immersive - it does not need to answer to anything, it just is. The Good is directional and conditional. Good towards what? Towards promoting more Beauty. Good for what? Good must do its work. Good to what end? The Good must have Beautiful consequences in order to be Good. The True is the mechanism to achieve Goodness and Beauty. The True is what dependably functions. A true friend.

i am surprised smith's glib arrogance in dismissing the spirituality of oprah and of elizabeth gilbert as not being salvific...but perhaps it's because they're women..given he doesn't even know the actual name of the woman who wrote frankenstein!

Good lecture! <3 thank you for sharing it. :) - There's a bitter sweetness to this lecture (it's a little sad seeing the toll that age is starting to take on Sir Roger - but he maintains a great sense of humor about it).

For once I must vigorously disagree with Sir Roger. I can see that the Tintoretto is great art but it is oriented far more toward the Last Judgement and therefore distracts one from the essential reality of The Crucifixion, which is the totality of Christ's suffering. The nature of His sacrifice is thus glossed over in the Tintoretto which I find to be a repugnant piece of art for it's Triumphalist orientation. The Grunewald is a masterpiece. Also, just because Schubert drank a little too much doesn't make him depraved. Wagner is more problematic; he was a genuine jerk.

As long as we continue this charade of providing the rights of Palestinians (Gaza and Golan) and Israelis alike the longer we prolong the inevitable outcome, which is a greater Israel. Justice will not be done, ever as long as there are two opposing sides.

Im so sorry Sir Scruton, but the political correct culture Marxist modern man will not listen. They are not forced, brainwashed or enslaved, they are deeply convinced feminists, liberals, multi cultural and diversity worshipers. Everything that we consider ugly, degenerate, unnatural and decadent is freedom, happiness, love and equality for them. They made their choice, they are all grown ups. We wont win. We might found foundations, society and domains of our own. A form of autonomy . But the modern world belongs to the liberals, the white self hating ethnic masochists and political correct mass and bugman.

Ken Wilber does a decent job at delineating, distinguishing and integrating The Good, True & Beautiful. He also does a good job at showing how we can sometimes fall into reductionism whereby we fail to delineate, distinguish and integrate elements that make up The Good, True & Beautiful in the wider culture... which is already happening. The patterns he points out are very educational.

what i like about serious conservatives is that they tend to translate complicated topics into simple ones, and in doing so discern facts from bullshit, but at the same time there is the risk that they may discredit valid points wich are subtle and elegant, classic example of schopenauer and hegel.

Unfortunately Mr Scruton has stated in another video that he likes hunting. To me there can be no reason why someone who claims to be refined can condone blood "sports".

Without the Internet, my education would suck. The USA therefore wants Turkey because of its geopolitical situation in the EU, the EU therefore only wants to put a little honey in Turkey's mouth (Balkan route), but not take it in. Erdogan installs a dictatorship, dismantles the remnants of secularism. The country is in a phase of Islamisation. To draw a funny comparison: This would be about the way the USA expects Venezuela to be included in the NAFTA agreement. Caution: joke. The lecture is like 2010. Bad 9 years behind us, huh folks?
