Ep. 8 | Ben Lipscomb - The Women are Up To Something

How did four English women - a genius, a firecracker, a polymath, and a synthesizer - enter a stultifying philosophical milieu at Oxford and change ethics forever? Join me as I discuss Elizabeth Anscombe, Iris Murdoch, Mary Midgely, and Phillipa Foot with Professor Benjamin Lipscomb and his captivating book, The Women Are Up to Something.

Anscombe's position on intention, as informed by science findings, of covenant, non-presumed reciprocity of the gift and need of the male and female spouses in conception keeps/allows inseparability and qualitative equality of thinking and having faith as in uncertainty belief. These science findings included of my father, economist and statistician, Colin Clark, of "just about paripassu rate of growth of population and food supplies in the developing countries."

Can there be plagiarism when using Thomist philosophy without citing Aquinas? That lady philosopher knew that morally Aquinas didn't write it for the academy.

[@oliverclark5604]

Anscombe developed Aquinas' inseparability of reason and faith by adding qualitative equality in covenant, non-presumed reciprocity.
