I feel sorry for anyone who debates with Dinesh. He is all screams and hot air. Very annoying.

Using genetic fallacies and 'God of the gaps' reasoning is not philosophy. Philosophy uses arguments. This is a sermon.

Fantastic! Thanks a lot for this promote. It is my favorite episode from that season.

Funny as always, but doesn't a moon have to revolve around the planet to be considered a moon? How is this thing a moon then?

It looks painful but it is not. You would only feel discomfort for a few days after the surgery.

30 minutes every week seems like a very difficult task.

Correction, he won 88 million after taxes. Which I'm not saying is not enough but still think is BS.

A *philosophy video dealing with a non religious question? how dare you bring variety to my channel?

*philosophy

I meant to remove another video and clicked this one by accident. I guess this is philosophy but can we please have a philosophy channel with good debates and less rap videos and comedians that simply because they 'say deep stuff' are considered philosophical?

More of this:

Less of this please:

I am trying to be flexible with this channel, but there is only so much one can let go through. I am not specifically ranting about this video or the submitter, but in general. Also, way too much philosophy of religion. Jesus Christ, pick another theme once in a while.

Nice find.

Ever heard of that thing called psychology?

You mean the social science? With like the citations, and rigorous double-blind experiments? I've heard of it, but I don't see any trace of it here; all I see is old-fashioned, egocentric mysticism in a reactionary medium.
I'm citing 500,000 years of evolutionary success; those here are content to cite old wives tales.


Yeah that one. The one that deals with things like how the brain reacts and could even change during high levels of stress, the one that studies phobias, which are very common even with our successful evolution, the one that happens to study how a kid that age is quite undeveloped and highly dependent on the parents despite the many successful adaptations the kid will learn to use and whose brain will polish as the kid grows. To bring the premise that the kid will be fine due to evolutionary excellence without considering the kid's cognitive state at that age nor any psychological factors is equivalent to speculating. I'm not saying the kid will be traumatized, most likely he won't be. But you do not know if the kid will be fine either simply because we have been successful in terms of evolution. The way the parents handle the kid's fearful experiences plays a major role too. None of this can be seen in the video so you cannot claim he will be fine, in the same way that I cannot and will not claim he will have long term damage.

Thanks!

The kid will be fine. You guys are seriously underestimating the hardiness of the homo sapien species. We are designed for hand to hand combat with wild animals, sleeping on bare ground in cold rain, going weeks without food, surviving extreme heat and cold; and you are worried about a 5 minute video shoot with scary costumes?
