You helped me improve my understanding of Aristotle's views on space, time, and number immensely. I will be watching this video again and again!

[@GregoryBSadler]

Cool!

[@samysma9166]

Like your videos. Thank you

[@GregoryBSadler]

You're welcome!

[@agnosticmonkey7308]

Thanks

[@GMMA-zq9hh]

Do you have lectures on the Physics?

[@JoshV74656]

Ha, the youtube timeline was a nice impromptu teaching aid about the passage of time, simple but effective. The idea that space seems like a contrary but isn't (I think because nothing is changing, its just location) yet it is used linguistically to define contraries (what's furthest from happy) is a fun quirk. I can see how space could be confused as a contrary since near and far can be used for position (space) and also for relation.

[@GregoryBSadler]

You could add to that many of our metaphors for processes of change and opposition are spatial

[@JoshV74656]

@@GregoryBSadler Good point, thankyou.

[@kushalnath4896]

Hello, Sir. It is a very good explanation.
But, where can I get that book (on your hand) from?

Thank you

[@GregoryBSadler]

You’re welcome!

[@WoolleyWoolf]

I finally know what the intrinsic nature of time is: a whole and continuous quantity that doesn’t contain any contraries and doesn’t derive itself from anything else.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Well. . . there are multiple concepts of time out there

[@ryam4632]

Should Aristotle be considered a presentist?

[@ZishanWazedBegg]

So is it right to say for Aristotle space is a substance?

[@GregoryBSadler]

It is not. You'll want to read his Physics to understand his views on space

[@ZishanWazedBegg]

@@GregoryBSadler thank you!

[@MArk-yn4sp]

Thanks. RUclips subtitles SUCK.

[@GregoryBSadler]

Well, sounds like a complaint to make to RUclips.

[@MArk-yn4sp]

@@GregoryBSadler As a principle, who should complain? You're making a video with complicated concepts and RUclips subtitles get it all wrong. This discredits your work.
As a viewer I intend to benefit from your knowledge; I might not understand your accent (I might not speak English as a first language) but subtitles have to reflect what you say.
My complaint represents ONE appreciative viewer who is dissatisfied with RUclips, but the video creator (yourself) represents his entire audience.

[@MArk-yn4sp]

@@GregoryBSadler Apparently this link allows video creators to provide their own subtitles. You have an international audience, please consider this, tx. support.google.com/youtube/answer/2734796?hl=en

@@MArk-yn4sp What time do you think I'll somehow carve out of my incredibly busy days to spend on thAt task for the 1500+ videos I've provided here for free?
I'd use the time you have to rethink this one on your part
