Episode 105. 18:53 Working Tools Series: Eureka!

from Minnesota Masonic Histories and Mysteries · host John Schwietz

Pythagoras, the man and myth, was a pioneer. He was the first to call himself a philosopher. He spiritualized mathematics and believed that numbers are the basis of all science and philosophy. He applied mathematics to his studies of geometry, music, and planetary movements. “We could think of Pythagoras as a model for modern Freemasons because crying ‘Eureka’ suggests a delight in the discovery of philosophical, moral, and scientific truths.”But is it possible that our ancient friend and Brother did NOT invent the 47th problem? Brad Phelps joins us to unpack a thought-provoking article by C. Douglas Russell.
