Marx was a person of his age.

Our job is to prepare a better world for our age. Call it what you want as long as workers are liberated from daily capitalist slavery.

@StuyLewis It works out to about six philosophers a week over a 15 or 16 week course. They should learn two or three of the major ideas of each of the philosophers.

There is some debate if Pascal's wager was intended for publication. It was apparently a marginal note. Perhaps something he intended to work on in the future. He never talked with anyone about it, submitted it for publication or showed it to anyone in his lifetime. There is no way of knowing if ...

Unfortunately, conglomerating all the Gods into one God doesn't solve the dilemma. It was a way of avoiding the dilemma. Having one God instead of many gods just...

I thought it was a terrific montage of images of Lee, some of which I've never seen before. The zoom into the photos on the billboard outside the theater she was playing at was amazing.

As usual, Lee takes this song and brings it to a new level.
