I teach English in Santiago , Chile. I have been in agreement with Katharine on most of her videos for years. Thank you Sir for doing this video,

Vonnegut's most known work may be Slaughterhouse 5 but I found the Sirens of Titan to be profoundly more impacting on my development. Read it at age 16 in my Junior year of High School.

"Andrei Rublev" by Andrei Tarkovsky is a masterpiece, i highly recommend people to watch that movie

I remember when you hit the stage and I thought ‘oh my goodness, here is a precious child of God who sees through the lies’… the only people who promote racism are the ones who talk about color of skin. I’m so proud of you. I’m so proud of your staunch stance for the values that I hold from one convert to another… I came into the church in 2006 and I have a great story! Totally holy Spirit

Is this available on spotify?

I'm sitting here in tears

Messiah on Netflix is the best thing out there right now :)

Nature must be studied and conquered for the benefit of Man. Ignore Jack London read Ayn Rand.

❤

That was good

I'm a big Cather fan, but this is one I've not read. Thanks. Was this published as a magazine article/short story?

The hierarchy on bean. (Sorry, not sorry)

Regarding the discussion about how to read scripture: We just finished watching the Moses 3-part dramatized documentary on Netflix and I found myself feeling simultaneously moved by that presentation of Exodus and guilty for needing that type of "low-brow" telling of the story. Now I feel better about it because Pageau gives permission for reading the bible like a story and finding meaning and ontological framing for life.

Vigen Guroian talks about teaching fsiry tales at different stages. Lots of good interviews as well as his book.

This made me dig out a book my Great Grandma gave me 50 fairy tales - from 1934 Opens with Jack and the Beanstalk Also really like Faithful John Thanks Jonathan! Also great talk at St. Andrews!

Ancient stories were distilled by divine souls gathered together in the dark around a bit of light and warmth. The Finnish Kalevala from the land of long nights perhaps is one of the highest distillation. It lives totally in the imaginary transforming vision, body and soul. The immaginario is reality.

This was by far my favorite part of the event. Magical ideas.

I experience the movement of the spheres listening to Jonathan Pageau.

Excellent review. Read this book as a boy. Very moving. Sadly, I doubt any American High School would even have this book today.

Totally agree, I’m from a long line of atheists, literally going back generations here in the UK and I am some kind of atheist myself, but I am not a fool or at least not a complete fool, we do not live our lives through science, we live our lives through narratives. It is these narratives that give meaning to everything we do, not science. And meaning is real, it is not just a matter of opinion and it is contained and explicated in a truly remarkable way within these Christian narratives. As Jonathan often says they show how reality lays itself out and reveals itself to us. In my hardest moments, when I have struggled and struggled to do things that seem to be of no advantage to me, and indeed damaging to me, and yet seem to be the right thing to do, how can I account for the fact that I will take that damage unless there is something greater to live for than just myself.* Perhaps I have been mistaken, perhaps I am not an atheist after all. Why am I crying right now? * For the last 18 months I’ve been helping a vulnerable adult who has autism and learning disabilities and who has been dreadfully abused by a medical health professional and seven others. In the course of doing this, I’ve been attacked and vilified by people with far more power than me, I have had my career almost destroyed, I have lost my home. I am currently living in a caravan. I will not give up. One of those concerned is a mental health nurse and he is now facing a tribunal with the nursing and midwifery council in the UK. But my life seems to have been ruined by this, and yet when I find connection with others who support me and validate me, then all that sacrifice and suffering seems worthwhile and I am energised and enlivened. What a life this has been. This evening, I have had some support from a man called Paul, who runs Bradford city disability, football club, where my friend plays football. He said he is ‘just’ a football coach, but he is not. There is nothing ‘just’ about what he does. He is worth his weight in gold, because he builds community, and it is that community that enables people to survive the kinds of things that my friend has been through. And I made sure that he knew that he is some kind of angel. I am beginning to think that maybe I need God in my life, I keep getting the urge to pray. Suggest a prayer for me and I will make it.

Dear Jonathan, I love your ideas, follow you as much as I can and try to introduce you to others. I just wish you would offer your beautiful shirts with long sleeves! I would definitely buy a few! Thank you.

Amazing woman and leader!

David Mason, excellent premise to know poetry as spoken and not merely cerebral. I certainly agree, the memorization element surely involves the entire person into the art of poetry and disproves any art as being a 'concept' only, but rather something to experience.

What was that Sir, "I know I'm a phoney?" Would you like to learn the Queen's English?

One of the best professors I ever had: Dr. Guroian is a gift and a blessing to all who know him.

I was thinking recently about how contemporary Christian music is quite possibly the worst genre of music ever produced by mankind. Even something like mumble rap, awful as it is, at least appeals to the passions of pride, greed and lust within us, and can be enjoyable as an authentic expression of our darkest impulses. But Christian music has no redeeming qualities whatsoever. It pleases neither God nor the demons. It invokes the same kind of feeling within me when I fake a smile or feign interest in someone's boring conversation. It's fake worship, fake praise, fake love for God. They know they're supposed to love God with all their heart, but like most of us sinners, they don't. Despite their insufficient love for God, the toxic and judgemental nature of many protestant churches compels them to convey fake zeal. That's why this genre is so empty abd void of any authentic expression.

Tolkien told a Pagan story. The Gods, and the unseen beings, literally manifest themselves throughout the Story. Gandalf was literally Odin.

I think the Passion narrative was the best Christian movie I've ever seen. It felt real, instead of cheesy.

I often say, the woke films and narratives are the secular version of the Christian media I had growing up! Little to no plot and all meant to preach at you!

Successful storytelling, especially for children, depends so much on delivery. A good storyteller brings enthusiasm and conviction, thereby invoking the divine inspiration the story already embodies. I disagree with Jonathan that Bible stories are inherently boring and would attest that they already hold within them a great deal of the mythical, fantastic elements and that is precisely why CS Lewis and Tolkien could draw upon them! David, a weak and overlooked boy, defeats Goliath with a stone and sling shot in one attempt! By faith! Jonah is swallowed by a whale! Noah builds a three story ark alone with only his sons’ help (the dimensions are written to give us an idea of this feat) and through the power of God all the animals board that ship and survive until the flood waters subside, and do not turn upon each other or Noah’s family when all reason would tell us impossibility would triumph! Eve is seduced by a talking snake! Joshua leads the Israelites and they topple the walls of Jericho with their trumpets and singing! No one can say there is no mythical, fantastic qualities living and breathing in the stories God has already given us. Perhaps what is lacking is inspired presentation and the willingness to marvel upon the written word. For all Pageau’s dissertation on the logos I’m surprised he missed it! I should add I am an educator and parent and can attest to the effectiveness of Bible stories from personal experience. As a child the story of Sampson and Delilah stood out to me-he was defeated because she cut his hair?!? Blew my mind! And currently, as I am in a season of transitioning from a sinful past filled with pain, and find myself contemplating the past with sorrow and regret, I have been meditating frequently on the fate of Lot’s wife. A pillar of salt! What magic!😃🧐

How do you spell the word that sounds like “konikson” that he said is translated as prince but actually means Son of the King.

Great stuff

i see he frequented Epstein island! Hello flight log!

By the term "Copy work" he doesn't mean to have your child sit down and copy a whole writing. Rather, he means they play a game where they "copy" two or three words from each sentence to use as a clue or tool when recalling. The first important skill highly neglected is the practice of intentionally recalling. By perfecting this skill alone your child's reading comprehension will increase measurably. Secondary benefits naturally flow from the plain fact that they remember the content of what they read, and the style that in which the writer wrote it.

Being not doing

Yeah but is he vegan?

Michaela Community School is the worst in the world, I know your strictest rules and penalties, so dear student, if you see this comment, let's vote whether you like to study at this school or not, if not, then unsubscribe in the comments, and if you want to leave this school and move to another school, do everything possible, break all those rules to be expelled from this school, show this bastard Katharine Birbalsingh that you are not here to study

Loved this acute, deep-diving interview with with one of America's most engaging historians. A perfect blend of two wise discussants. "What this country has meant, what it has done" and "we have steadily progressed." Yes, this is how America's past should be understood.

Want to like but JP but to me he is kind of the Orthodox Noah Yuval Harari.

Jonathan P., is this Renisance fair Orthodoxy ?

Thank you!

'promosm' 😈

Fantastic Job.

Harmony and proportion

Protestantism is just propaganda

G K Chesteron said that our lives are compared to fairytales. The suffering of the prince and princess and they live happily ever after in the end. Our own lives are full of sufferings,but we hopefully will live in eternal happiness in eternity one day. The medieval world was all catholic and it was catholicism that brought civilization to the western world. The world will become a better place when everyone returns to catholicism.

What about Sharia law???…

When your soul knows the pattern, invoking emotion, but your mind has not the words nor concepts to explain the understanding, woe or awe is experienced. With great knowledge, only the highest wets the cheek, in brave ability. The ungrounded light of mind produces the angels and demons of gratitude and resentment. Knock humbly and the wings open with great love. Go slow. Be patient. A blaze must first be gently kindled. With the son of man, it flows. So many words mean the same what. So many concepts mean the same why. So many actions mean the same how. All with one light. Why, in some people, does envy produce the power to destroy? Pride is our divide. A parent who encourages victory sews the tail. Success is for All. Ps Joseph Fourier is a good read
