I love how the Delphic oracle tells Socrates that he is the wisest of men. It's funny because his wisdom is that he knows nothing with certainty. Also, everyone should read the Symposium before telling anyone that they love another. And then afterwards, figure out what you consider to be love. It's worth it.
My god, the idea that learning is recollection, recovering knowledge that you had before you were born, that is a huge idea, deep innate knowledge, maybe.
So there is a difference between information and data after all. Data is static. Knowledge change with situation. A person with knowledge knows what should be done by examining the circumstances.
Good question. If only we implemented their solutions into our society. Fear is holding us back! We have the solutions, and they have been passed down!!!
hi, could you by any chance find the year this particular interview was recorded? would be of significant help as i have to reference my sources for my politics essay i'm working on
On the uselessness of Plato's substantial forms Substantial forms would work perhaps for a Cartesian, where the world is sharply divided into entities with extension (body) and those without extension (mind), but Leibniz rejected this dualism because it separates body and mind, producing the disasterous body-mind split. Idealism, where all is both mental and physical, and integrated, would be impossible. Instead, Leibniz introduced the monad, which gives a mental connection and correspondence to physical bodies. leaving the world to be of two associated and connected types, mental and physical. One world, not two. Dr. Roger B Clough NIST (retired, 2000). See my Leibniz site:
Why the ... should we worry about what Socartes or Plato thinks?. Shall we not just take up the questions they posed and try to make our society better? Knowing that they were on to something.
we need a show like this today
This sooo good! Thanks for putting this on the 'Tube.
haha, nice. I love Bryan McGee. I'm a politics major but I've read philosophy since highschool. It is binding on all professions.
Looks like I need to do more homework! These guys are good, whether accurate or not?

I wondered the same thing and assumed the same too. Actually, to my surprise, it turns out to be from 1987. Looked it up on IMDB.
