Brilliant stuff. I fell asleep before the end of his talk, so I´ll have to come back for more. Still, this has become the focus of my interests as an independent spiritual scholar activist. He embodies the issues I´ve had to develop, that Multidisciplinary Philosophy needs to be identified as a specific discipline, that secularism and Christianity requires spiritual modernization, and that the empirical psychosocial disciplinary phrase, "We live in Jesus´ legacy of loving integrity for Moses and God, in University-based, UN human rights-sustainability-pro-social-biz society with structured pluralism, facing the problems of hypocrisy and three main forms of ideological materialism." The spiritual modernization component seems to include three key factors: First, the need for elevating awareness of the healing significance of therapeutic psychology and psychosomatic medicine in Jesus´ legacy as corresponding to his spiritual-religious significance; second, modern social movements significance of prophetic social justice in Judeo-Christianity. Thirdly, comparative religious studies role in spiritualized individualism. Gandhi, in particular, serves as a major lead kind of prophetic figure for the existing significance of syncretism due to the globalization of secularized Christian culture, Gregory focuses on the legal component, and consumerism, without recognizing the business profiteering motivation studied in Stuart Ewens PR and A Curtis´ Century of the Self documentary.

History and Socialogy: " Protecting life as Thomas Paine words would expound on the rights of man are evidenced. To be honest with one's mind is imperial, " my mind is my own church " can only be achieved in similar environments or society. A discipline that is not palatable to all; thus, the nature of morality is categorical, we need a wider gage. " Thank you for an Excellent Lecture.

If social security and medicare were good enough, people would be free to be charitable. But these folks with 2 houses are just keeping up with the jonses.

Being a fan of Pope Francis completely undermines anybody's credibility.

😴 his book will hold a table leg in 50 years.

[@TheModernHermeticist]

[@christopherlampman5579]

Why the hate? Most books hold table legs in 50 years.

[@chernowitz]

@@christopherlampman5579 No hate just disapproval. Before accusing someone of hate make sure you have the ability to make this very important distinction.
