Summary

We will warn you in advance; this conversation is like getting a tour of the most magnificent safari, in a Ferrari. You’re going to want to strap in and you may even find the pause and rewind buttons helpful as well. David Filson is a pastor, a theologian, a professor and legitimately one of the smartest people I’ve met. But i don’t think that’s what he’s going to be remembered most for. If I had to guess I would say it will be his big heart, and his devotion to Christ. We had the best time discussing anything from why he includes the fact that he’s a republican in his IG bio, to the simplicity of God, to Cornelius Van Till, Jonathan Edwards, apologetics, extra-terrestrial life, how the Bible makes us better people, and a bunch more.

The Human and The Machine Fully Connected How will technology affect us? Yes, we’ve been here before, the Industrial Revolution caused all kinds of social upheaval, good and bad. But can we compare that to where we are now? This era of Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning is transforming all we know and the risk is that the human becomes outsourced. On the Nature of Things (Leonard translation) by Titus Lucretius Carus Loyal Books On the Nature of Things, written in the first century BCE by Titus Lucretius Carus, is one of the principle expositions on Epicurean philosophy and science to have survived from antiquity. Far from being a dry treatise on the many topics it covers, the original Latin version (entitled De Rerum Natura) was written in the form of an extended poem in hexameter, with a beauty of style that was admired and emulated by his successors, including Ovid and Cicero. The version read here is an English verse translation written by William Ellery Leonard. Although Leonard penned his version in the early twentieth century, he chose to adhere to both the vocabulary and meter (alternating between pentameter and hexameter) of Elizabethan-era poetry.While the six untitled books that comprise On the Nature of Things delve into a broad range of subjects, including the physical nature of the universe, the workings of the human mind and body, and the natural history of the Earth, Lucretius repeatedly assert Figure It Out w/ SP SP attempts to navigate the course of the human mammal in the era of synthetic landscape. Bring your own snacks. Tiny Matters Multitude Science shapes every facet of our lives, but so much of its influence is overlooked or buried in the past. Tiny Matters is an award-winning science podcast from the American Chemical Society about tiny things — from molecules to microbes — that have a big and often surprising impact on society, past and present. From deadly diseases to forensic toxicology to the search for extraterrestrial life, hosts and former scientists Sam Jones and Deboki Chakravarti embrace the awe and messiness of science and its significance, asking questions like, "how was IVF invented?," "what do glaciers tell us about Earth’s ancient past?," and "why is smallpox the only human infectious disease we’ve eradicated?"
