    Loved this talk, was very disappointed when the music came on during what seemed to be a discussion I would have loved to have been a fly on the wall for! Would love to hear right from where you left off at....

    Well, this young man is impressive. Not the usual shy, almost fawning type, who faces up to Professor DBH. The stand out trivial point was their mutual asking of the slightly condescending 'do you see/know what I am saying?' with the equally condescending assertion about the other 'Oh, you DO see/ know what I am saying'. So when it comes to boldness and directness, Prof DBH really has met his match here. In any case, a very helpful discussion: thank you both. On the limits and capacities of reason v faith etc that covered the middle section I was in mind of the differences between the poetic plato, on the one hand, and the prosaic aristotle, on the other. And within plato, i was reminded of his writing about the inferiority of writing :) and the limits of language in the VIIth letter, Phaedrus, and the soaring Symposium.

    American philosopher mystic Franklin Merrell-Wolff distinguished three epistemic modalities: perception, conception, and introception. The third he defined as knowledge through identity, which takes on an analogical character when transcribed into a synthesis of concept and introcept. Basically, a doctrine of a third way of knowing is essential to the theistic point of view, for God is that act of knowing.

    Your statement on your old perspective on the Father is something I find really interesting. I see a lot of Christians who like to split up the Trinity into different personalities: the conciliatory Son, the wrathful Father etc... I fail to see how this is not polytheism. In fact, it's more distressing than any paganism, because it ascribes the attributes of Zeus to The One God.

    David, to me, seems to falter under insufficient concepts of "nothingness," - here Kabbalistic mysticism comes in handy, wherein "nothing" is postulated as being non-being on account of it having no constraint or limitation. Ein Soph is on account of limiting itself, and by proxy of said limiting, or constraining, instantiates Being proper. Apologies for terrible use of language, it is exceedingly difficult to pin this down in propositional language. What is needed is a kind of foundational "meta-language". Great podcast, I'm a big fan of David's work.

    i thought this notion of nothingness=limitlessness was implicit in their discussion of eriugena? do you have any specific kabbalistic passages where this is discussed, sounds very interesting?

    @@kevinmcdonald6560 I don't have specific passages at hand, what I wrote was a kind of amalgam of Jewish mysticism as located in Manly P Halls', "The Secret teaching of all ages ages" - a great book, albeit long and heavy going, if you haven't read it - and Chris Langan's concept of "Unbound Telesis" from his metaphysical system, "The Cognitive Theoretic Model of the Universe." It's a pretty perennial idea, though. It pops up all over the place in different intellectual idiom, so to speak. Also maybe checkout Jacob Boehme's idea of "ungrund", too. Its been a while since I've listened to this, but I obviously missed their talk of "eriugena", as my comment assumed David didn't conceptualise nothingness as limitlessness. I'll have to give this a re-listen, thanks!
