The truly sublime teacher lives so deeply inside the material being taught, that from his mouth the IDEAS appear to take on wings, enter the MIND of the listener, and actually transport the listener to the realm where the Ideas in Truth ... exist.

I feel truly amazed and mesmerised with my experience of watching your video. There wasn’t a single point of time when I felt that I am not a part of this class. I laughed every time you cracked a joke and felt the same excitement as the students would have felt there. Especially when you said we are done for the day, even I made the same noise here, like the way your students did in the class. The way you teach shows your love for philosophy, and today we need people who wants to love it more than mere studying. I wish I could attend your sessions physically but thank you for this video. I would request you to please share more sessions of yours. Really appreciate the exceptional work that you are doing. Love and respect from India. 🙏🏻

It should be noted that Mr. Gore's duly noted fine teachings...having good QUALITY...become more efficient when placed on KZbin where the QUANTITY of views CHANGES or increases due to it's shareable 'LOCATION'. Mr. Gore's effective or 'actual' classroom size increases over TIME due to KZbin's dissemination format (for which we are thankful) but shouldn't we move to apply the ideal concept of 'Mr. Gore's Philosophy class' to our entire educational system as well? In other words, shouldn't we compile the works of our best math teachers (like Jaime Escalante) or civics teachers (like Ben Stein) or music teachers (like Marvin Hamlisch) or just notable teachers (like John Taylor Gatto) and videotape their teaching moments for posterity as well as for profit? Shouldn't every college offer the very finest teachers ONLINE for the poor to achieve a college level education. Shouldn't colleges profit mainly in this way? Shouldn't colleges be focused primarily on testing, hands on internships and reaching the widest possible audience for the highest quality teachers? Isn't this what the POTENTIAL of the internet was designed for? Or does the ACTUALITY of making an old school profit off of brick n' mortar colleges supersede actual education? To Gore...or not to Gore? That is the question.

Somewhere around minute 26 he was asked "what is in the middle?" What is both form and matter? He didn't offer a sufficient answer. The student was correct. We, people, are definitely both form and matter. Our soul is the form (substance) and our bodies are the matter (accidents).

I have two questions, if that's alright. 1. Must all four causes act together to effect any/all of the four changes? In the case of the decaying apple, for example, I take it the apple undergoes the fourth change--generation/corruption. I see the material cause--the apple. I see the efficient cause--bacteria and oxidation (although I doubt Aristotle saw those). I would appreciate help to see the formal and final causes. 2. Once you have deformed the chair with your sledgehammer to the point where the chair is no longer suitably called a chair, and you have ceased your work on the chair and it remains untouched again, does the deformed chair now take on a new "actuality" and exist as "perfection" of this new "actuality". Or is it forever "imperfect" even though "dynamis" has ceased? Thanks for you amazing lessons!

The "6th sense" referred to sounds like a samādhi- a non-dualistic state of consciousness in which the consciousness of the experiencing subject becomes one with the observing object. In my opinion another sense we have is of emotions, of our own and of others. I can feel non physical emotions without physically touching, hearing, seeing, smelling, or tasting them.

Hi, thank you for this video, it is amazing. I don't understand something, the form/matter relationship ("more form" vs "more matter") is just dependant of how "stable" is the object? Does the apple have more "matter" than the gold in so far the gold have more "form"? I don't know if I'm able to explain myself. Do we know the ratio of form/matter of something when we compare the thing to other things?

Is it accurate to say that the essence of the marker (in Aristotle's understanding), is that which the marker is when no one is experiencing it? The essence is that which accounts for why the marker is still around when you leave the room and come back to it?

Good introductory lecture. One thing, though: I fail to see how atomic theory at all affects the doctrine of transubstantiation. Even a cursory understanding of Thomas/Trent would show why this is wrong. So... I'm not sure what you mean by "the Catholic Church has been pressed on this" as if we're sitting around panicked over atomic theory... :P

Hi, very helpful video, thank you. A question though: how can "nothing" be pure potentiality? "Nothing" has no potentiality by definition, let alone pure potentiality. Nothingness is a lack or an absence, and a lack can't have any kind of potential. Doesn't pure potentiality refer to a kind of "prima materia"?

Mr. Gore please allow me to congratulate you for such an amazing class. You and your students are simply amazing. When I watch your videos I always feel like I'm actually there, present in the physical classroom and I think that's wonderful. I'm not completely sure but it seems to me that you are Catholic given the reason that I have seen you praying in other videos. I'm saying this because if you're Catholic I would like you to advise me in something specific. I would like to know if you would recommend a Catholic person the subject of alchemy. I've personally noticed that alchemy may be a great subject and tool to better understand the world of immaterial substances and perhaps even to understand the world of spirits. Do you personally have anything to say about alchemy? Is that something that the Catholic Church would have a problem with? I would like to get involved in alchemy but I'm afraid that it may be too esoteric or dark for a Catholic young man like me. Thanks a lot for your service!

Concerning the question you answered at ~ 16:00 or so about whether or not there is change at the 'atomic' level in trans-substantiation, wouldn't the answer be yes? Between the physical body of Christ and the bread there are obvious physical differences, which are accidents, while the substance is understood not to vary.

The preeminent goal of philosophy should be that of encompassing a maximum of epistemological concepts through logical deduction with a minimum of hypotheses or axioms. That is, to take all of the philosophical isms out there and create the understanding of them all by the usage of one hypothesis or axiom, don’t you think?
@MrTeaSPoon12
@MrTeaSPoon12 7 жыл бұрын
But this is really just making ism's out of ism's. And this is essentially what philosophy began doing. What was most primally know to us is the physical world, so early Presocratics tried to find the underlying archae behind everything. (Today we might elect to call the proton this, for material things). The problem is that not everything admits of the same being. There is world which we know by the senses, but there are other objects that we know because they are intelligible. One such example would be math, hence the Pythagorean's principle. Another 'rationalist' move was to say that all things do belong to a single, static Being, as the Eleatic school did. It was with Plato and Aristotle that the ball really got rolling with the principles that can be said of nature and beyond. To make a long story short, how can we know that some one principle can lend an explanation to the many things that are, when those many things may not themselves admit the same nature?

It should be mentioned though that the Metaphysics may not have been intended as a compilation. It could just be different sets of notes that are thrown together, though it sorta reads like a single work. And the Physics is certainly relevant and suggested reading prior to the Metaphysics.

Physika. “Metaphysics” comes from Aristotle’s work “Meta ta Physika”

Odd that Aristotle would view gold as mostly form, not mostly matter. The absurdity of his view should have been apparent even back in his time.

If something is pure potentiality, I don't think it exists...? First because it doesn't have form (actuality) so it's not a composite I don't know xd

so Aristotle was wrong then? Becuase in mystical meditation, thats excatly what happens, you experience the essense of the metaphysical spiritual experience.

An inauspicious start. The speaker just lists a bunch of words grouped into two sets with very minimal explanation of how they're related to one another or how they contribute to the head word or concept each one falls under (or, in the case of "entelechy", even of what it means). Hmm. Worth listening on? [PS. It occurs to me that, in general, the more perfomartive a speaker is, the less they have to say of real substantial ellucidation and analysis.]

We cannot know the essence of a thing, but have an acquaintance with objects in the world through sensory perception. [The God of Abraham, immaterial and sensorially imperceptible, but on Sunday: "allow me to introduce you to the essence of God."] A certain partitioning of the brain is essential to the theist given to pagan philosophy, or at least to the marrying of Aristotelian epistemology and reformed [Christian] epistemology. Fascinating; but the wedding is not necessarily one that is being undertaken in this video, so given this charity please spare me the offense.

The root of the word 'entelechia' is telos, meaning purpose. It is also the root of the English word 'intelligence.'

Yes, telos means goal/end in Greek, But intelligence comes from Latin Intelligere (inter + lego) - nothing to do with telos.

Wasn't Aristotle simply trying to investigate physics and chemistry, without knowing what we know now, instead of developing metaphysics, which seems to me totally outdated today, useless and probably incoherent?
