“If all enigmas are resolved, the stars go out. If everything secret is returned to the visible […], if all illusion is returned to transparence then heaven become indifferent to the earth.” — Jean Baudrillard “What is the purpose, and, worse still, what is the origin of all science? What? Is scientific method perhaps no more than fear of and flight from pessimism? A subtle defence against - truth? Or, to put it in moral terms, is it something like cowardice and insincerity? To put it immorally, is it a form of cunning? O, Socrates, Socrates, was that perhaps your secret? O, mysterious ironist, was this perhaps your - irony?” — Friedrich Nietzsche Complete article - Jordan Peterson and the (F)law of ‘Scientific Inquiry’: https://politikon.iapss.org/index.php/politikon/article/view/11 David’s YouTube channel: https://www.youtube.com/c/TheoryPhilosophy --------------------------------------- {Podcast} Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4ryEqjut4r6SMtfxLdM1Le Anchor: https://anchor.fm/rahul-samaranayake YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/RahulSam {Social Media} https://twitter.com/trsam97 https://www.minds.com/trahulsam/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/rahul-samaranayake-981a9315b/ https://trahulsam.medium.com/ https://www.instagram.com/name_is_rahul/ Facebook Group: https://goo.gl/JoL9CA {Reference Links} - {Music Used} - Epidemic Sound: https://bit.ly/2T22q6V {Images & Videos used} - --------------------------------------- If the ideas I discuss in this podcast evoke your interest, consider visiting REALM: https://www.realmprojectau.com/ --------------------------------------- Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for “fair use” for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.

"The courage to take the anxiety of meaninglessness upon oneself is the boundary line up to which the courage to be can go. Beyond it is mere non-being. Within it all forms of courage are re-established in the power of the God above the God of theism. The courage to be is rooted in the God' who appears when God has disappeared in the anxiety of doubt." — Paul Tillich My disquisition on the foremost Existentialist Theologians of the 20th Century, Paul Tillich's The Courage to Be.  ---------------------------------------  {Podcast}  Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/4ryEqjut4r6SMtfxLdM1Le  Anchor: https://anchor.fm/rahul-samaranayake  YouTube: https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLcJ6nqGscKrcGHWMcVpNzDpk6FfzuDKA-  {Social Media}  https://twitter.com/trsam97 https://www.minds.com/trahulsam/ https://www.linkedin.com/in/rahul-samaranayake-981a9315b/ https://trahulsam.medium.com/ https://www.instagram.com/name_is_rahul/ Facebook Group: https://goo.gl/JoL9CA  {Reference Links} Commentaries & book reviews: http://www.bookrags.com/studyguide-the-courage-to-be-tillich/#gsc.tab=0 https://people.bu.edu/wwildman/tillich/resources/review_tillich-paul_couragetobe.htm https://youtu.be/srC6ZsH4nwg https://youtu.be/Z3ZZzudEXMU Papers on Tillich and Heidegger: https://www.jstor.org/stable/1509278 https://open.bu.edu/handle/2144/8468 {Music Used} Epidemic Sound: https://bit.ly/2T22q6V  {Images & Videos used} - ---------------------------------------  If the ideas I discuss in this podcast evoke your interest, consider visiting REALM: https://www.realmprojectau.com/  ---------------------------------------  Copyright Disclaimer under section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, education and research.  Fair use is a use permitted by copyright statutes that might otherwise be infringing.  If you are or represent the copyright owner of materials used in this podcast and have a problem with the use of the related material, please send me an email at mrrahulmaxcontact@gmail.com, and we can sort it out.
