Alternative Philosophy

This is a philosophical argument to explain the presence of evil whilst there is still god who is seen as an all powerful presence.  

I came across this subject and i thought it would be interesting to share this dissection of such an interesting but ultimately unanswerable question. I would say it is answerable but only from a personal perspective. there isn't an answer that i can see apply to everyone. Experts definitely agree that such an argument hasn't been found at least.

These are my rather dark thoughts on the process. Two episodes in a week as promised. 

I just want to talk about this counter to this nihilistic way of thinking that i've been seeing around a lot. Explain my thought process and how it can be good for your mindset. 

A path to what. Knowledge my good listener knowledge. I'm talking about what part love has to do in philosophy. Oddly quite a lot there are many different aspects of love in philosophy that i didn't get to in this episode but never fear their shall be more! 

Be prepared you may feel the urge to hug after listening to this!

Does what it says on the tin their mate. This episode is me telling you about the simple ins and outs of this interesting part of philosophy.

Got some quotey majigers here :

Seneca 

Sometimes even to live is an act of courage. 

Epictetus 

We suffer not from the events in our lives. But from our judgment about them. 

Seneca 

 He does not regard it with fear, as if it were a great loss; for no man can lose very much when but a driblet remains. 

What is perfection?
What is in the box? come on in and have a listen.

You need to think outside the box ;
 J.P. Guilford 

I had a thought the other day and i thought is that my opinion on that for real? 

so i have worked through what I really thought, how i truly thought about said question. I threw some philosophy at it I questioned myself, society it was a process. If this sounds interesting have a listen. Keep them ears occupied so you don't go off thinking about something  taboo or even riskey. 

I even quoted the late great Shakespeare, if you wanted to copy the quote to say at a party and sound clever or get as a tattoo in place of only god can judge me or whatever I've chucked it below: 

‘All the world’s a stage, and all the men and women merely players. They have their exits and their entrances; And one man in his time plays many parts.’

(As You Like It, Act 2, Scene 7)

I'm talking about Shakespeare and he has evoked some vibrancy in me a reckon. I was against him as a source of literary philosophy but in my research for this episode the man has swayed me from beyond the grave. What a guy! Have a listen and see what the bugger I'm going on about.

The qoutes included in this episode are:

To be or not to be. That is the question. 
(Hamlet act 3 scene 1)

This above all: to thine own self be true,
 And it must follow, as the night the day,
 Thou canst not then be false to any man.”
 -Hamlet, Act I, Scene III

‘What’s in a name? A rose by any other name would smell as sweet.’

(Romeo and Juliet, Act 2, Scene 2)

My tongue will tell the anger of my heart, or else my heart concealing it will break.
 ― William Shakespeare, The Taming of the Shrew.

I know its a mood disorder/ mental health situation but for me it manifests as an emotion and to an extent i can treat it like one. listen along and see what you think about my viewpoint on this. 

Also i have a couple of interconnected side topics I  talk about, why zen masters never have depression and the link between philo and depression. 

This sounds like some heavy ass content but the dachshund  of doom not withstanding I think its conquerable. 

Not really sure what to say here clues in the title. Have a listen expand that consciousness get some feel good in your day. That will be all happy listening! 

oh and here's the quote i read out. 

Love knows no measure but is fervent above measure love feels no burden disdains no labour's would willingly do more than it can complains not of impossibility because it conceives that it may and can do all things therefore to do anything and it performs and effects many things where he that loveth not faints and lies down.
