A lot of it is heavily Platonic in metaphysics

2019-08-01 16:32:39 UTC  

i wouldn't go to deep into hermeticism

2019-08-01 16:32:42 UTC  

i mean, i doubt i will believe anything about it but it might be a interesting subject to explore

2019-08-01 16:34:23 UTC  

I like some of philosophy but I have to go kind of easy on it. I'm more into history

2019-08-01 16:34:28 UTC  

i did on accident and wierd things happened

2019-08-01 16:35:11 UTC  

Yeah it happens

2019-08-01 16:35:45 UTC  

Basically what my understanding is that everything is governed by natural law

2019-08-01 16:36:08 UTC  

As in regardless of whether people believe or not we are still subject to these laws

2019-08-01 16:38:18 UTC  

the world we live in may be an illusion but it doesn't exempt us from its rules and laws and we still have to follow them

2019-08-01 16:38:45 UTC  

this is one of life's many paradoxes

Ohh read about the god metaphysical debate

2019-08-01 16:51:53 UTC  

A good bit from aristotle's perspective

2019-08-01 16:52:32 UTC  

He was a rarely seen monotheist at the time. He believed that although a rational empirical argument for everything can be made

2019-08-01 16:52:52 UTC  

Its fundemental backbone can only be mythological

2019-08-01 16:52:59 UTC  

I.e dogma

2019-08-01 16:53:47 UTC  

For example he can technically be considered a theologian as he started his work with the pre-requisite of god's existance

2019-08-01 16:54:14 UTC  

He thought without them his laws of logic and posterior analytics would be meaningless

2019-08-01 16:54:29 UTC  

Tho seneca disagrees

2019-08-01 16:54:48 UTC  

I'll read more on that later~

2019-08-01 16:56:36 UTC  

Seneca the younger?

2019-08-01 17:01:50 UTC  

Seneca The Oblivious.

2019-08-01 17:01:58 UTC  

A lesser known scholar.

2019-08-01 17:02:29 UTC  

Usually seemed to make arguments about things that he really should have just observed.

2019-08-01 17:11:10 UTC  

@Hannibal woah it's a snek

2019-08-01 17:11:15 UTC  

Where can have snek

2019-08-01 17:12:27 UTC  

Ohh if you guys want to see an ancient theism vs atheism battle read "tafahat al tafahat" also known as "nonsense of nonsense" basically a fight between two islamic golden age scholars. Al ghazali vs avveroes. One thinks that you can rationalize and find god logically the other doesnt and wants full frontal indoctrination to enforce religion and stop moral decay

2019-08-01 17:13:13 UTC  

Btw everything we know about aristotle pretty much comes from averroes

2019-08-01 17:13:37 UTC  

He was known as "The critic" after all.

I need to buy a flag already

2019-08-01 17:20:31 UTC  

The Gadsden flag is cool. The Confederate flag is neat but people might get the wrong idea with that one

2019-08-01 17:21:07 UTC  

So probably best to not
