- 63. Short Introduction to Why I Don't Buy Correspondence Truth Theory
This is effectively an introduction to why I don't subscribe to Correspondence Truth Theory. I used this article as a starting place to talk about it: The Very Concept of Truth Is Impossible Without God — The Think Institute. I could very well be mistaken here, but these are my honest ideas. I think truth is so much bigger than a set of propositions that correspond to reality.

In this video, I talk about what Francis Sheaffer saw as the bend of Western Cultural History. Sheaffer seems to posit that God is the grounding of all reality and truth. When we take away God, we lose everything. I agree with him to an extent, but I'm not sure if he's selling himself short as to the actual grounding of God. I want to begin using his ideas in my dialectic more.

This video is a little messy and some parts are better than others. I was trying to get to what each Travis and Joel were actually saying and why they weren't fully able to talk to one another. Also, I comment on Travis's vision for morality. I won't be doing commentary on the last part since it is largely more of the same.

A little commentary on some things that Christian Apologist Greg Koukl said recently. Koukl is, in effect, contradicting himself. Wanted to pull this out and whine about it.

Some commentary on a conversation between @CosmicSkeptic and @RationalityRules. I pulled this in because I thought their conclusion very interesting. They are in essence saying that you can do what you want. The Conversation: We Agree Now! | Rationality Rules & Cosmic Skeptic | Is Morality Objective? - YouTube

A short video about how Marxism, with its principle of shared everything, leads to non-existence. I hadn't thought about this before, so I thought I'd make a video.

These are my thoughts on Emily Bronte's Wuthering Heights. This is a phenomenal book. I think it is mostly about how our desires conflict. We pursue an ideal, don't like limitation, and, at times, drain into non-existence. Wuthering Heights is a story about how we ourselves live.

This is my third, (and perhaps final, at least for a while), video on Homer's Iliad. In this one, I try to really get down to the differences between Love and Hate. There are a lot of other ways you could frame it: longsuffering versus anger, forgiveness versus revenge, etc. This is the fundamental divide in the Iliad, and, perhaps, in existence itself (not to sound too dogmatic).

In this video, I read a blog post by Nathan Ormond (Digital Gnosis) where he touches on some thoughts he has concerning Christianity. I really liked and identify with Nathan's concerns. This was a really good post (although, perhaps, poorly written); I'm glad I came across it.
