Brilliant! These videos are great for actually doing philosophy. I thought I was getting a university level education for free on RU-vid.

What are the reflection draft prompts that you mention and are they available to download with the course notes and reading lists? Are the questions also available ?

Also I would say that clockness is a combination of forms. Like geometries, time and different materials. Maybe higher forms in the knowledge realm can combine and create lesser forms in the hypothetical realm which we then create in the physical realm which in turn can cast a shadow in light or have a picture taken of it and be preserved in the shadow realm. The crystallization of form from the top down. I wish I could take this class haha

I love these little jokes like one about torpedo fish or killing the person who saw sun :)

@samedinger886 5 лет назад

The form of the soul is God and the physical manifestation of that form is the human soul. We are created in his image. Thank you for helping me make this connection

@samedinger886 5 лет назад

@@samedinger886 theres no connection there because the "soul" its just a word that defines some properties of brains. The only thing u can say about the word soul its that is a word to define a phenomenom coming from brains, therefore its a function or property of the brain in this system we call reality, u dont have the properties defined by the word soul anywhere else as far as we know. Your "connection" is just a falacy, u are assuming the existence of god first of all, then u go and "connect it" with another unkown concept.

It's not without cause that Plato influenced, or was embraced by the christian movement....as Nietzsche said "Christianity is Platonism for the masses" The question for me would be how would Plato feel about this posthumous correlation.
