Name: The Distinction of Essence and Existence | Prof. Edward Feser by The Thomistic Institute - WE HAVE MOVED, SEE BIO
Duration: 1 h 24 min 55 s
Description: A lecture on June 30, 2017 at Aquinas Philosophy Workshop.

Wait, he uses the asprin example to refute the objection of circularity, but, he doesn't really respond to the problem. He says "suppose it is known that acid is a pain reliever, but not that it is a acetysalicylic acid. Then, I have an incomplete conception of asprin, but I haven't misconceived of what asprin is. However, if I claim that aspirin is NOT a acetysalicylic acid, I have misconceived of what aspirin is". I am paraphrasing, but he goes on to say, "by contrast, if I judge that apsrin does not exist, while I have judged falsely I have not misconceived of what it is".  This seems to have the same problem of circularity. If you actively say aspirin does NOT exist, it is the same as saying it is not a acetysalicylic acid, so, you HAVE misconceived of what it is, if, we are allowing that the essence of aspirin could be identical with its existence.

The Distinction of Essence and Existence | Prof. Edward Feser

Rating: Explicit
Summary:  There are, strictly speaking, two places Sherlock calls John’s room.
One of them is the real room, upstairs in 221B, made of brick and wood, plaster and wallpaper, furniture and military corners on the bed.
The other one has a yellow sticky note on its door with John’s room scrawled on it in John’s handwriting, messy after years of taking notes during med school and even more years of hastily scribbling down prescriptions. It’s the room in Sherlock’s mind palace.

It is a room, yes. But it’s more than that. It’s a series of events that unfolds upon entering.

John's Room 

On July 10th- 14th the Thomistic Institute held our first annual "Student Leadership Conference" at the Dominican House of Studies
on the theme "Faith, Reason, & the Mind’s Ascent to God"

Aquinas offers a robust account of faith and reason, and the way that human beings can come to real knowledge of the divine. Understanding these truths is central not only to the Catholic faith, but to all knowledge of reality because God is the transcendent cause of all being, the source of intelligibility, and truth itself.

PRESENTERS INCLUDED:
Fr. Dominic Legge, OP (Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception and the Thomistic Institute)
Prof. Ed Feser (Pasadena City College)
Fr. James Brent, OP (Pontifical Faculty of the Immaculate Conception)
and a keynote address by R.R. Reno (First Things)

The Nature of Knowledge and the Knowledge of Nature | Fr. Brian Chrzastek, O.P.

Soccernet.ee taskuhäälingu "Pikk ette (ja ise järele)" 97. saade keskendub Eesti koondisele, mis sai möödunud nädalal uueks peatreeneriks Thomas Häberli, kelle käe all ollakse Hispaanias treeninglaagris, kus teisipäeval minnakse vastamisi Ungari meistri Ferencvarosega.

Häberli esimene koondise nimekiri tekitas laialdast kõla. Esmaspäevase pressikonverentsi järel võib eeldada, et jalgpalliliidu esialgsest pressiteatest välja jäänud mängijatel ei tasu väga innukalt šveitslaselt kutset oodata. Retoorika põhjal ei pruugi seda tulla.

Juttu tuleb ka sellest, et kohtumisest Ferencvarosega ei tasu tulemust oodata ja ilmselt ei saa veel ka ammendavat pilti uutest plaanidest ja ideedest.

Saate teises pooles räägime Premium liigas toimuvast ja puudutame FC Flora, FCI Levadia, Nõmme Kalju, FC Kuressaare ja veidike ka teiste tegemisi. Saate tegid Kasper Elissaar, Rasmus Voolaid ja Ott Järvela.

97. saade: Kõrvale jäänud vutimeestel ei tasu Häberlilt kutset oodata
