Richard Rorty on the Compatibility of Science & Religion


source: Philosophical Overdose    2013年5月2日
In this talk, Richard Rorty discusses the ethics of belief and the apparent conflict between religion and science. Unsurprisingly, Rorty, following both James and Dewey, provides a pragmatist or relativist account. He argues that because science and religion are not actually competing to describe the one true way the world "really" is in itself, apart from all human needs and interests, there's no real underlying logical inconsistency. Rorty suggests that we give up on the realist's correspondence theory of truth and instead take the pragmatist route, where science and religion are simply understood as tools which have different purposes: one involves predicting and controlling nature, the other with finding meaning. In the process, Rorty discusses other attempts to reconcile science and religion, including Paul Tillich's distinction between literal and symbolic truth (i.e. scientific beliefs are literally true, while religious beliefs are only symbolically true), as well as William James' infamous pragmatist lecture The Will to Believe, which itself was a response to William K. Clifford's evidentialist epistemology which maintained that it's always wrong and intellectually irresponsible to believe something upon insufficient evidence.
This lecture was given at West Valley College.

Mary Roach: "Grunt: The Curious Science of Humans at War" | Talks at Google


source: Talks at Google    2016年7月21日
Bestselling science writer Mary Roach visited Google's office in Cambridge, MA to discuss her book "Grunt: The Curious Science of Humans at War".
In "Grunt", Roach tackles the science behind some of a soldier's most challenging adversaries―panic, exhaustion, heat, noise―and introduces us to the scientists who seek to conquer them. She dodges hostile fire with the USMC Paintball Team as part of a study on hearing loss and survivability in combat. She visits the fashion design studio of U.S. Army Natick Labs and learns why a zipper is a problem for a sniper. She visits a repurposed movie studio where amputee actors help prepare Marine Corps medics for the shock and gore of combat wounds. In east Africa, we learn how diarrhea can be a threat to national security. Roach samples caffeinated meat, sniffs an archival sample of a World War II stink bomb, and stays up all night with the crew tending the missiles on a nuclear submarine. She answers questions not found in any other book on the military: Why is DARPA interested in ducks? How is a wedding gown like a bomb suit? Why are shrimp more dangerous to sailors than sharks?
Mary Roach is also the author of "Packing for Mars: The Curious Science of Life in the Void", "Bonk: The Curious Coupling of Science and Sex", "Spook: Science Tackles the Afterlife", "My Planet: Finding Humor in the Oddest Places", and "Stiff: The Curious Lives of Human Cadavers". Her writing has appeared in Outside, Wired, National Geographic, and the New York Times Magazine, among others.

What does it mean to be a migrant in your own country?


source: University of Oxford   2016年7月20日
Dr Indrajit Roy studies the lives of circular and internal migrants, people who move around their own countries usually in search of work. Such internal migrants do not move permanently, but instead are coming and going constantly. So their patterns of movement change what we think about the nature of the city as an entity. In places where citizenship rights like the right to vote or social entitlements are tied to place of birth, they are often denied such rights. The aim of this project is to understand the lives of internal migrants and to encourage governments to think about local service provisioning for people who are mobile.

Dr Roy is an ESRC Future Research Leader in Oxford University’s Department of International Development and a member of the International Migration Institute.

Imagine you’re on a game show and you can choose between two prizes: a diamond … or a bottle of water. It’s an easy choice – the diamonds are more valuable. But if given the same choice when you were dehydrated in the desert, after wandering for days, would you choose differently? Why? Aren’t diamonds still more valuable? Akshita Agarwal explains the paradox of value.

The Possibility of Telepathy in Robots with Ben Goertzel


source: New Thinking Allowed    2016年5月30日
Ben Goertzel, PhD, is author of many books on artificial intelligence including Ten Years to the Singularity if We Really Really Try; Engineering General Intelligence, Vols. 1 and 2; The Hidden Pattern: A Patternist Philosophy of Mind; and The Path to Posthumanity. He is also editor (with Damien Broderick) of an anthology about parapsychology titled, Evidence for Psi: Thirteen Empirical Research Reports. He is chief scientific officer for Hanson Robotics in Hong Kong.
Here he points out that, while the question of consciousness in robots is problematic, there are similar problems when exploring the question of consciousness in humans. He postulates that AI machines will develop some forms of awareness; and suggests thought experiments involving plugging the human brain directly into computers. He discusses credible research on extrasensory perception and suggests that people working in artificial intelligence and cognitive science will need to confront this data. He then speculates about the prospects for telepathic robots.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.

Professor and the Madman 2


source: Wes Cecil    2016年6月26日
Another in an occasional series wherein Milo Redwood and Wes Cecil discuss random philosophical ideas. Hosted by Tim Quackenbush. Correction: Wes Cecil stated that the goal of the Stoics is "Ataraxia". That was the goal of the Epicureans, the Stoics pursued "Apatheia" which is equanimity or indifference to the passions and the triumph of reason. Ataraxia was a kind of joyful calm that come from the absence of pain and the moderation of desire.

Understanding Hypnosis with Stanley Krippner


source: New Thinking Allowed     2016年6月30日
Stanley Krippner, Ph.D., professor of psychology at Saybrook University, is a Fellow in five APA divisions, and past-president of two divisions (30 and 32). Formerly, he was director of the Maimonides Medical Center Dream Research Laboratory, in Brooklyn NY. He is co-author of Dream Telepathy, Extraordinary Dreams and How to Work with Them, The Mythic Path, and Haunted by Combat: Understanding PTSD in War Veterans, and co-editor of Debating Psychic Experience: Human Potential or Human Illusion, Healing Tales, Healing Stories, Varieties of Anomalous Experience: Examining the Scientific Evidence, Advances in Parapsychological Research and many other books. He is a Fellow of the Society for the Scientific Study of Religion, and has published cross-cultural studies on spiritual content in dreams.
Here Stanley Krippner describes how he was inspired to learn hypnosis as a child by reading the “Mandrake the Magician” comic books. He describes how trickery can be used to augment the efficacy of hypnosis. He notes that hypnosis is a powerful tool that can be used to improve study habits, overcome addictive behaviors, help heal diseases, and even improve ESP performance. He differentiates between hypnosis and suggestion as well as between hypnosis and meditation. He also points out that there is a spectrum of hypnotic trance states.

New Thinking Allowed host, Jeffrey Mishlove, PhD, is author of The Roots of Consciousness, Psi Development Systems, and The PK Man. Between 1986 and 2002 he hosted and co-produced the original Thinking Allowed public television series. He is the recipient of the only doctoral diploma in "parapsychology" ever awarded by an accredited university (University of California, Berkeley, 1980). He is also past-president of the non-profit Intuition Network, an organization dedicated to creating a world in which all people are encouraged to cultivate and apply their inner, intuitive abilities.
