thank you for this channel!❤️

What is the best easy introduction to phenomenology? I heard your recommendations. I would like a book for atheists, who are intelligent but not philosophically sophisticated. Thanks Richard

Wow, this is one of the best videos you’ve made, Dr. Donald! God bless.

A wonderfully concise description of saturated phenomenon and a great testament to the impact Prof. Marion has had on his students.

To delve into the intricate tapestry of another's existence is a pursuit rich with potential. The traits one observes need not be cloaked in robes of profound intellect, ethereal beauty, or une grande d'ėlegance. Such an exploration is only gratifying when the jewels in question glimmer in the most unassuming corners, akin to the irresistible pull towards the Word or a tome. In conclusion, the richness of human experience invites exploration, though it requires certain qualities to make the endeavor worthwhile. Something must be unearthed from this dissection. Otherwise, peeking into a person's life devoid of meaning is at best, a frivolous pursuit, or worst, a descent into the realm of condescension. The Lord invites us to seek the spark... look for the treasures that make life intriguing & extraordinary. Are you a humble admirer or an unwitting critic? That is the question I meant to pose.

Such elevated concepts are easier for me to understand with your explanations. I am 67 and at the time I studied I barely had time to study for passing the exams 😰 Now I am really enjoying these subject matters and meditating on them. Thank you so much. GBU! 🙏

Again thanks fellow being name Donald for sharing awareness and insights with us out loud big hugs

Hola! I can’t use the captions. Is it me?

This presentation touched me deeply as a follower of Jesus. Thank you for sharing your experiences through faith.

Thank you for the fine understandable details that phenomenology too often gets bogged down with, especially Heidigger as also, alas, can happen in religion. Be there!

Thank you Dr Wallenfang. so appreciate your personal anecdotes and these powerful passages.

I hugely appreciate this class. Thank you.

“Come, you are being summoned to this adventure…”. I like Philosophy. I say yes 😊

Amen.

“The fulcrum is God and the lever is prayer, and this is how the saints have lifted the world and will continue to lift the world to the end of time…” Beautiful. Thank you🙏

Thanks for making room during your day to teach and inspire us 🙏

Hair is on point today. Good job! God is also pure! Amen! Double good job!

Just bought your book. Thank you!😊

Thank you for this valuable discussion on Metropolitan John. Just a slight correction to his position/ title: The late John Zizoulas was the Metropolitan (a senior bishop of a large or renouned city/ region) of the ancient biblical see of Pergamon in Turkey (NT Asia Minor) under the Church of Constantinople (or the Ecumenical Patriarchate). He was correctly titled in Greek "Geron/ Elder Metropolitan of Pergamon" and was given prominent position in the order of hierarchy of the Church of Constantinople, due to his enormous scholarchip and influence in the development of the theology of the Church Fathers for today's context. But Zizoulas is not a Patriarch. A Patriarch is the Head or Primate (Protos/ First in Greek) of a local Orthodox Church who leads the Synod of Bishops of that local Church and speaks on her behalf. Orthodox Patriarchs & Primates according to the Orthodox canonical diptychs (canonical order of eminence) are: 1) The Ecumenical Patriarch of Constantinople (who is the Protos/ First among the Patriarchs & Primates in world Orthodoxy); 2) The Pope & Patriarch of Alexandria; 3) The Patriarch of Antioch; 4) The Patriarch of Jerusalem; 5) The Patriarch of Moscow & Russia; 6) The Patriarch of Serbia; 7) The Patriarch of Romania; 8) The Catholicos-Patriarch of Georgia; 9) The Patriarch of Bulgaria; 10) The Archbishop of Cyprus; 11) The Archbishop of Athens; 12) The Metropolitan of Poland; 13) The Archbishop of Albania; 14) The Metropolitan of Czech Lands & Slovakia; 15) The Metropolitan of Kyiv and Ukraine.

Excellent class, excellent teacher. Thank you!

Very nutritious contents. I appreciate 😊

When I think of beauty, I think of Wittgenstein's Tractatus and the general term that subsumes beauty, that is, brings the beautiful under a broader concept, and this is value. His last comments in the Tractatus hold true with him throughout his life: Value and its ethics and aesthetics (modes of value expression in our existence) refer us to that dimension of our existence which is simply given and is irreducible. So put, say, a lighted match beneath the palm of one's hand, and one faces a truly "pure" phenomenon, pure in that its essence is "determined' free of interpretative analysis, that is it simply will not be discussed in the determination as to what it is. As Kierkegaard, talking critically about Hegel, put it, the pain stands as its own presupposition. This is the brass ring of ethics, no? So beauty is a mode of value: simply given. Cannot be gainsaid. Apodictic, just like logic (notwithstanding the contingency of language itself. This aside for now), yet IN the palpable givenness of the world. Beauty, suffering, and the entirety of this value-in-being (call it) that is the very ground for ethics and religion there, in the phenomena of the world. Kant's wondered how apriori synthetic judgments were possible, but not how value apodicticity was possible. One is left with the horizon of value givenness, the bedrock of ethics (and aesthetics), its metaethics (metaaesthetics) worn "on the sleeve" of the world, if you will, and one sees that rational systems evolving historically are ALL about just this. This world IS a metaworld because in the essential givenness is the apodicticity of value.

Would you also discuss Eugen Fink or Derrida in this series? Thank you

Uuuummmm yeaaaahhh

Can you do a video about Our Lady of Mt. Carmel? Love the content!!!

Doctor are you referring particularly to classical metaphysics or metaphysics as a whole including that of modern and contemporary metaphysics?

Thank you very much again for your support❤️🙏 You are an exemplary of your religion. Your peers should be proud🙏👊

Wow! Thank you for this, Dr. Donald! Btw, can you do a lecture on how Marion's phenomenology of love exceed metaphysics and how it liberates God, the self, and the other from metaphysical constrictions?

This one is very personal to me because I have struggled with understanding what people mean when they often refer to love, as well as the presentation if you will of love in our daily existence. Using these concepts as well as listening to your podcast has really helped me understand what I have been neglecting from my own perspective. Often to my own detriment. Thank you Donald🙏

I think it’s interesting that you’re actually a self proclaimed philosopher instead of most posters on RUclips who hide behind other people’s ideas and works 👍🏽 I’m subscribing

You have good taste in music, those songs are slappers. 👌

See, I knew you were good.

Nothing exists without a cause but God. Our mind can't imagine something existing without a cause but God.

Hey Dr Wallenfang. As a psychologist, when I’m in a face to face encounter with the other in front of me(the patient), it seems to me the way I respond to the other(I.e with a posture of kenosis, openness to their otherness etc) that has both an internal and external response is important? I think you mentioned that a contemplative stance is not what is at play for Levinas, but how then does the way in which we engage with the other impact the ethical relationship? Even though I’m being held hostage, welcoming them as their hostage and resisting in reducing them to the same(even though he says we can’t extinguish the altering of the other) but merely resisting must make a difference? Thanks again for your videos they’ve been really helpful.

Dear dr. Wallenfang, how do you reconcile Marion's critique of metaphysics with Edith Stein, which, although within second phen. reduction, embraced st. Thomas ontology? Btw, im amazed at your content. Thanks and God bless you!
