    Send us Fan Mail

    What is the ethical to Dostoevsky? What is the greatest good?
    In this video, we examine Dostoevsky's ethics, illustrated most clearly in his masterpiece The Idiot, zooming in on Dostoevsky's Christ, Prince Myshkin. 
    Here we talk about Dostoevsky and his thought, how it relates to other moral and literary giants to come up with the most complete but also a succinct summary of the theories.

  • The Infinite Potential of Language

    Send us Fan Mail

    Language is a gift, it can also seen as divine.

    In Genesis 11, we see man, using language, to unify and build a tower towards the sky. In response to this, God disrupts the language of man, hence separating them to different corners of the world. 

    I hope you enjoy this discussion and find it greatly insightful.

  • The Theme of Silence in Dostoevsky

    Send us Fan Mail

    Silence is always utilised in literature and discourse to great effect.

    In the works of Camus and Pascal, silence is seen as a key facet of existential angst. To Dostoevsky, however, silence is that which deeps one's understanding and walk with the divine and the world. 

    In this video, we discuss the nature of this silence and how it impacts our understanding of the world.

  • Are Differences amongst Historical Sources a Problem?

    Send us Fan Mail

    There's contradictions in multiple historical texts, is this a problem?

    In this short clip, Zac and I discuss the issue of historical sources being inconsistent. While this is more focused on the resurrection, as the question was raised during a discussion about the resurrection, I felt it was greatly apropos to broader historical questions as well. 

    Tying in knowledge from the Tet Offensive, Punic Wars, and more, when approaching it from a historical lens, note this video is about the historical lens and not the theological lens, it is apparent that a few inconsistencies is not a big problem at all.
