Such am important idea explained so simply
The interviewer is persistently annoying. It's almost as though he's trying to get under Gould's skin.

Clearly, Dennett misunderstood Nietzsche since, contra Dennett, the idea of the 'eternal recurrence' was put forward by Nietzsche in order to affirm life despite its horrors!
Contra people like Gould, Darwinism CANNOT be extrapolated so as to explain or explain away everything!
What gives you the idea that he, or any other reputable scientist tries to use Darwinism to explain away "everything"? And please define everything while you're at it.
@@popvinnik He was a 'reductive materialist' - clearly you don' t really understand what that means! 'Reputable scientist' within the current (soon-to-be superseded) paradigm.
@@timothytannerandtheamazing5054 On the contrary, I know exactly what a reductive materialist is as I happen to be one myself. And nice job avoiding my question.
@@popvinnik It's was obvious to me that you are a reductive materialist yourself. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so zealous in defending someone like Gould. Ultimately, there is absolutely no point in attempting to convince you and those like you that the materialist/mechanistic paradigm has had its day, for like, e.g., Steven Pinker, you don't see the need to even read the many contributions to peer reviewed journals that clearly contradict your paradigm which you erroneously regard as fact. Now, in common with all those of your ilk, you dismiss any experimental evidence that does not fit in with your model/paradigm. So, far from avoiding your question, I suggest that you first admit that materialism is simply an assumption. For instance, that the mind is merely an epiphenomenon of brain function is just that - an assumption. And an unwarranted assumption at that.
@@timothytannerandtheamazing5054 You seem to be chastising me for assuming things but you're the one guilty of it, not I. You assume that I haven't read any materials challenging/supporting materialism because if I had, I'd change my mind? That is utterly absurd. You mention experimental evidence. Care to share?
Interesting that Gould remarks that he's 'not at all inclined to write large-scale philosophical books'. Just as well since he was not qualified to do so, for he was not a philosopher!
You seriously think a man of his intellect would waste his time on philosophy? His justification is that it would be a pompous waste of time was spot on.
Clearly, although Gould was good with the details of his own sub-discipline, he lacked any capacity for holistic thinking or looking at the big picture - almost autistic! Moreover, he doesn't seem to have been a pleasant chap to interview! Stephen, may you RIP 🙏
Although certain interlocutors were clearly reductive, mechanistic, closed-minded blockheads, this was nonetheless a fascinating dialogue thanks to the intellectual fortitude displayed by Rupert Sheldrake.
How on earth can such an iconic discussion with such brilliant minds have such low views?

It was lovely to view this in light of Dan Dennett's passing two days ago, and the final music track was fitting. G.M.T. April 22 - 02;35 - 2024
RIP Daniel
Daniel Dennett died on April 19, 2024
R.I.P Daniel C Dennett March 28, 1942 - April 19, 2024
Rest In Peace Daniel Dennett (March 28, 1942 - April 19, 2024)

Wow, all the evidence today supporting all that Sheldrake says, it’s no wonder he was right-it looks as if he was in touch with the future or guided toward a goal and it turns out to be the case.
What evidence are you referring to? In touch with the future and guided by what? I think I smell the foul stench of woo-woo.
Once again we play God with our own arbitrary system of what is good
I'm sorry. Esther also just happens to speak fluent Dutch?

Gracias por compartir esta mirada del Magdalena Medio, mis abuelos son de allí y es muy interesante esta exploración que hiciste desde la perspectiva local.
I gave up after a while because I didn’t feel it was a balanced dialogue. Freeman practically said nothing at all and Rupert was limited. I will not say it was a balanced discussion but stressed cold atheistic. materialism.
your loss
It’s always funny to me that people can be so mean intelligent like these guys but miss the most obvious underlying :
Are you saying that you know ''obvious'' things they are unaware of? I'd love to know what those things are.
@@USERNAMEfieldemptyYeah, me too. Of course they don't reply..lol
24:30 intellectual tennis without a net 🤣👌
Physics has been @a standstill for 40+ years now .. everything has been sent on a wildgoose chase.
Requested hellos the
Where can I find this video in English??😩
Have the Dutch fathers rebelled yet and got their paternal leaves with pay???
Michael is a phenomenal craftor and caster of words. Half of the message is not just in the words, but in the delivery. Substance and delivery are crucial brought together so well. Separately, I have becoming obsessed with this question of should we be changing the human condition. Transhumanist will argue the change enhances and improves the human condition. It seems that all 'great' civilisations and human projects have strived to 'perfect' the human condition and therefore the perfect human being. From judeo-abrhamic faiths and their moral virtues and guidelines (see moses commandments), to Western enlightenment values of humanism (we don't need God to be and do better, and the rise of self-help literature), to nazi Germany (eugenics and forcing a utopian vision of the perfect human being upon everyone). I believe only we can find our own salvation. The pursuit of perfecting our being is a choice and decision we must make within ourselves. Revolution never starts externally, but always from within. Then we can extrapolate from that to ask will this hurt or benefit my family, my neighbours, town, country, and the world etc...
Fantástico
What does he mean by the "music" and Schumann? The world will yet be saved?
Excelente contenido, por otro lado pobre cobaya😮
Fascinating. The video starts with the racist ramblings of a black street preacher. The viewer is then treated to the wonderful world of Oliver Sacks. The dreamlike interview with this fascinating man ends and we get a rude awakening. An encore with the same racists. Dystopia, then the sublime, only to end with this Faustian religious ritual. Was this necessary? What was the added value of this sermon? A combination of events like this 1990s racist preaching and white guilt are what got us here. Have we been prepped for woke modernity, a world where white man's original sin is taken as a given? Did this slow drip-drip of shame and guilt fall on the fertile Christian soil of white Western atheists and agnostics? We live in an age when racism has become an insignificant if not absent impediment for minorities in the West to achieve their dreams and develop to their fullest potential. And yet, an onlooker who doesn't know any better would think our societies are rife with discrimination and racial injustice.
Amanda is so cute.
Apart from this guy's claim, who ever said the only reason humans build complex machines, is to prove that humans are machines? Nobody?
It's so wonderful how Dyson gazes in a downward direction when he is contemplating what to say. Most of the other guys gaze upward when thinking hard.
I wonder what Oliver Sacks would think of Roger Penrose / Stuart Hameroff's idea of consciousness being tied to organic "microtubules" (a microscopic tubular structure present in the cells) rather than the neurons of the brain? This preoccupation with the ego and therefore the head area is bewildering to me. I now understand why women divorce themselves from so-called science. however, we do need better female role models so I wish some women would be willing to write their names on history. Our civilization might be worth living IF that were the case. The angry black/white men at the end of the video can suck their own dicks in their world without women.
unfortunately, the mapping of the genome negated some of Dennett's dream of replacing human parts with machine parts. now we know that what people believe about reality effects physical healing powerfully-- the placebo response. Does anyone else interpret this conversation as a bunch of males killing and dissecting their femaleness in order to enslave and control what they consider to be weak and inferior? this victorian thinking coupled with outdated jungian archetypes has lead us through a mediocre history that is not worth repeating. a machine can hold up a mirror for humanity-- but it will never give one the free will needed to live a unique life. immortality would be an empty experience.
what world are you living in that your perspective places a cum shot as big bang and story over yet we know everything about it yet it is also a "glorious" accident? how is this rational? a bunch of apes so fearful of death that they avoid the mystery entirely? well, nature has no fear of death.... are trees more evolved and intelligent? they have achieved a longer life span and these apes will kill for that.
At the very least modern scientists should be able to admit that physical matter is not the only aspect of reality.
Always fantastic to listen to Thomas
beautiful communicator. i totally disagree with materialism and yet I adore him. female nature is irrational
ok @ 11:57 he describes the childhood dinner table and the intellectual father that forces his children to converse about intellectual topics as they pertain to history. is it any surprise that Stephen was able to "shut-up, understand and obey" as the male child rather than a daughter forced to endure the same history? I never had children chiefly because our dum-dum reality cannot be explained to a thinking daughter. men like Stephen assume women will be all about love but we do not serve fools... and we are not obligated to love the males we aren't bonded to.
Kind of interesting it translated Dennet calling him "clever" as "intelligent". Those are widely different.
