Berkeley and Hume on Substance

[@PJAlaska]

Thank you Professor for your time and knowledge. It’s cool you post these lectures to help people!

[@bertjunrieQ]

Thank you for this lecture. Truly enlightening

[@devilmansanchez]

I love your videos. I use them to compliment my philosophy classes.

[@rareword]

In French, complement and compliment are two very different things. Isn't it the same in English?

[@FreeWill_is_unintelligible]

@@rarewordIt is, indeed, the same thing in english! It was just a typo from the oroginal writer’s part.

Wow, the best explanation of Berkeley's Idealism I have seen on the internet. Thank you.

[@tunnelman5756]

For Locke, isn't the squirrel in your example really a complex idea (a combination of simple ideas) and not the substance? Each simple idea comes from a substance but that complex idea of a squirrel would come from a combination of the substances that are the origins of the simple ideas. Someone please explain if I am wrong thanks

[@FightXScience-wh6kx]

Well, your use of terms is a little off. Simple ideas come not from substance (which Locke admits we have no experience of), but from sense impressions.

[@Seal-hs5il]

Why feel the need to censure and delete comments? :)

[@PhiloofAlexandria]

KZbin holds certain comments automatically for my approval. I don’t check them every day, but I look at them about once a week and approve almost all. A few have expletives or are spam, directing people to unrelated websites, and I don’t approve those.

[@memetkara2117]

@@PhiloofAlexandria Thank you for the confession ("unrelated websites"). Actually it was a book by Lenin and if you read it you will understand that it is directly related to this topic. But I understand your position, it's imposible to keep your place in the academy and be open to the works of people who founded the USSR and expropiated the rich who finances your university.

[@PhiloofAlexandria]

I don’t think I saw that comment-maybe I just missed it. I’ll look for it.

@@memetkara2117 You're a clown who knows nothing about how universities function. There's plenty of scholars who read and teach Lenin and the other degenerates you idolize.
