God inportance in the middle ages

God in the middle ages was very important because the people try learning from god and understanding god, to make gods idea conceivable in our mind. That people in middle ages use faith that works with dogmas it means that that people can´t explain gods existence (one of the principal problems in the middle ages) they can not probe with facts or anything, but they still believe in it, and not only believe, they learn from it.
We can see that god in that epoch was the superior and most important thing, it’s omnipresent. The church realizes a very important and influential roll in the society and in politics and they use gods image to influence and convince people. That’s way is so important to learn from god to understand, because humans and people on that epoch specifically try to understand the “best thing” to be like that to have it as a model to inspire them.

Religious fanatics

What makes people follow a 10 years old kid talking about god and creation?
This video shows us the kind of ignorance that we still have in our world.
This fanatic people around the world is intolerant about other believes, other possibilities, or ways to understand this very common question “where do we come from?” besides this people is stubborn, because although there are facts that shows us that we are a result of evolution, and important scientists like Christian Pander, Jean-Baptiste Lamarck, and maybe the most important Charles Darwin that write a very important book that is the start of the theory of evolution, call “On the Origin of Species” that tell us in 1858, that the natural selection allows the origin of new species, they do not believe, even this kid is accusing scientists of being liars, and saying that they degreed god. This kid even maybe is not his fault is distorting the truth saying that we came from the monkey, but we are of the same specie of monkey, millions years ago we were specie of monkey, then we evolve.
But the most concerning thing is that adults is molding and overwhelming the kids mind with stupid and non truth things. Maybe he even don´t understand what is saying. This kid convinced of something that he don´t understand tell a memorized speech to more ignorant people that believe it without thinking two times and even pays to listen it.
I think that people like that never going to change, but we have to teach the new generation in the world about what we think is the truth.

When we talk about Aristotle’s we talk about one of the most important and complete philosophers of all times, he was rationalist, because he said that all can be explained by reason. Aristotle lived in an epoch when the situation started to be more interesting, like more wars and conflicts, when the society need a change after a period of calm and with no much new things.

Aristotle is the third of three consecutive great philosophers, they where Socrates and Plato. So he was influenced by these guys and them ideas, but not only in the way to continue a theory or propose, but also to criticize it and expouse a new theory of it. The one that influence more to Aristotle was Plato because he was Aristotle teacher and master; Plato put all kind of ideas in Aristotle head about many things like reality or society. But the difference is that Aristotle think in more implications of different theories like the soul propose.

He porpoise a new way to see and understand the society and the human and its behavior. He talks about many things like matter and form, he said that the form is what meters because it performs a determinate function and it doesn’t matter the composition of that object, because it always is going to realize the same function.
Aristotle also talks about the soul, this is important because he is trying to explain the mind and all body functions. He said that soul is something immaterial, independent of the body and capable of surviving its death, but anyway the soul always is going to need the body because it works like a container, the soul needs the body to express to transmit psychic functions.

Aristotle said that we are political animals, because we need and must live in a political community and have relations with other persons called citizens in the polis, he said that we depend of the polis, that a man only can be perfect in a polis because is the only environment in which we can develop our virtues. He also talks about ethics; he said that Ethics is the inquiry into the human good, the good for human beings. The human good is eudaimonia that is the good for all, is what we can do for society by using our virtues.
So Aristotle is a very important man and philosopher for us because he was the one that influence many other philosophers and his theories and porpoises of society, human and all that it implies keep in time and represent a very important way of see us and how we interact although it was in a totally different time and circumstances.

Is the soul a product of body functions?

Is the soul a product of body functions?
In the time of Aristotle the human soul was all, was something immaterial, independent of the body and capable of surviving its death, it can represent all we are and how we are. The body was only the way to transmit all these like the thought, the reason; psychic functions like emotions, memory, or breathing. The capacity of living things is represented by the soul and trough the body.
So the soul is maybe the most important part of us but without a body it can’t work. That is what make us special because is a combination of both, is an organism that work in a determinate way. The soul and the body can’t work without the other. So we can say that the soul is not a product of body functions; the body is the product of soul orders, or capacities.
But with our actual technology we know that the brain is the responsible of all these processes, and we don’t have information about the existence of a soul, we steel haven’t see or feel it, although some people are totally convinced that we have a soul, but with religious purposes. we don´t know yet if there is a soul but in the future we maybe discover somethink.

Plato and his thougths

Plato was a man born in Athens. When he was young, he starts to follow Socrates classes, and then he became a disciple.
Plato was very influenced by Socrates because he was the master of argumentation and also he has revolutionary ideas about society, life, order… this create interest and an obsession in Plato, and after the dead of his master Plato starts to writing about Socrates, his live, his thoughts…

Plato decide to continue with Socrates ideas but with in a different way. Plato start talking about reality, he is the one of the firsts in question reality, he do this with the story of the cave, it talk about the truth of reality, and that some people after they go outside the cave they came in again and try to convince the others that in the outside all is different and beauty but nobody want changes because they produce fear in people.

One of the ideas Plato was that all we perceive is false, is a copy reflected by the hyper Uranus this image of reality is projected by the hyper Uranus then it pass through the Uranus and it can be seen in the Gaia where all we are. These shows us the Eros vs psyche confront, eros the reflection, the outside and psyche the mind and soul, the reason. So he is trying to said that the world can be only be perceived by using the reason and this can be truth in some way because to analyze the world you have to use the reason if you don’t you never can be capable to understand anything, he is very important for all of us because they ideas was controversial and innovator and through the time they persist and influence us in the society and type of thought we have.

Socrates

Socrates was born in Athens, which was the center of knowledge in that time one of the most important cities. He is one of the most important philosophers of all times.

Socrates was an old ugly guy, and in that time that was not accepted because they want perfection. This cause the inclination of Socrates to philosophy because he was very intelligent and was a master of argumentation, he was capable to give validation to anything he say. There’s when the people start talking about inner beauty.

He was the first in use the word philosophy, by criticizing the sophists that was the persons who teach people explaining the world but receiving a pay. And Socrates was against it, he say that “wisdom should not be charged”. So he started to give speeches in the streets, free classes, for anyone.

Socrates was very important because he start to talk about society, all what you need to conform a society and he talk about something important and is that societies are not perfect because they are not organized in the right way, but also he say that the cities are the only key to learn he don’t care about nature, and the reason is the way think with a purpose.

He is almost the first one in talk about ethics, which is the good and bad things, and he start to ask himself how we decide what is good and what is bad, how we categorize the right and wrong things. So he talks about the Devine voice, which was the voice of reason this can tell us, guide us to do good and there for we can be happy.

People against Socrates, start to accuse him of perverting the Childs and of introducing new gods (Devine voice) so he was forced to commit suicide.
With his dead the people start to think with divergence, they explore, and then there appears many philosophical schools.

So Socrates was very important because he start to fight against the system and a specific way to see and understand the world, and he break it and create many ways to see the world, he leave a legacy, and the opportunity to keep growing and understanding with other philosophers and disciples like Plato, he leave a system of knowledge and learning and knowing according to the necessity of all the people. He is a revolutionary man like Jesus.

Naturalism (VIII B. C. E)

In this epoch, the people and more specifically men’s with knowledge, thinkers, have a very important question that was, what is nature made of? And this is the essence of naturalism to explain nature, they characteristics the reality that represents.

This was a revolutionary question, because after that almost everything was explained trough myth, magic and gods. All the people in this time believe in this type of things. So this question was controversial and disturbing for some people because it is trying to explain the reality, so they start making theories and hypothesis about what really is nature made of.

And there comes a theory call the atomic theory proposed by anaximandros. This theory explain us how stuffs work, and what make, for example an apple being an apple, is trying to explain the essence of the apple. This theory says that we and all things are made of tiny and indivisible pieces that put together and form something. This theory comes because of the necessity of human to explain the world, to understand it, to explain the essence of all type of things and exposing the human as other part, other element of the nature. This movement or way to expressing, open doors for humanity to investigate and understand
