Connections between races and lands are real
But I don't think it works like that
I'm not too interested in that stuff as you know
@sdlkfmbklfnldneg INCLUDING CLEAR/REALISTIC THINKING
Which is what the Romans gave us.
AND THE GREEKS
AND THE HINDUS
Exactly.
ECKHART IS UNDER-READ
We can't separate Roman philosophy from Roman religion.
Cicero, Aurelius, these men's words still echo in modern thinking.
ANCIENTS VIEWED THEIR RELIGION AS PART OF THEIR CULTURE
CUSTOMS
IT KEPT IT FROM BEING TOO DOGMATIC FOR A LONG TIME
Exactly.
Rome didn't really have religious wars, it had practical wars.
Religion was the foundation of their culture without dominating it.
ALL THINGS WORKING IN PARALLEL
RELIGION, CULTURE, LEADERSHIP, ECONOMY
THIS IS TRADITION
Faith, nation, culture, government, economy... all of these things, in one.
https://youtu.be/xYONRn3EbYY any STEMcucks out there I'd love hear your opinion on this.
DEFINITELY
NATION = A PEOPLE
AN ETHNIC GROUP OF SHARED VALUES
EXCLUDING DELETERIOUS MUTATIONS
STEM people shouldn't be given public platforms at all.
well i'm asking in terms of whether this approach is better or worse for students.
the guy is obviously some kind of neoliberal, forget him, just interested in the math education debate.
@༺པརབྱར།བསངཇ༻ DO YOU HAVE THAT GREAT ARTICLE, THAT I HAD ONCE BUT LOST, ABOUT HOW VERBAL MAY REQUIRE HIGHER INTELLIGENCE?
@Gil O'Teen I FAVOR PROJECT-BASED LEARNING
SO I PROBABLY AGREE WITH HIM
THE MAIN PROBLEM WITH MATH IS THAT VERY FEW NEED MORE THAN BASIC MATH PLUS BASIC ALGEBRA
99% OF THE WORLD'S MATH NEEDS ARE THERE
SO WE ARE WASTING EVERYONE'S TIME
TO GET TO A FEW WHO SHOULD GO ON
AND MOST OF THOSE ARE WASTED BECAUSE THEY ARE OBLIVIOUS TO OTHER FIELDS
THIS IS WHY CLASSICAL EDUCATION EXISTED
MATH ONLY MAKES SENSE IN BALANCE WITH OTHER AREAS
LIKE PHILOSOPHY, LITERATURE AND HISTORY
