Episode 165: Spinoza on Biblical Criticism (Part Two)

from The Partially Examined Life Philosophy Podcast

Continuing on the Tractatus Theologico-Politicus (1670), ch. 1–11. We go more into natural laws vs. ordinances; does it make sense to say that God makes rules for people? Also, how does Spinoza deal with alleged miracles given that natural laws are absolute regularities? Continued from part 1, or get the ad-free Citizen Edition now. Please support PEL! End song: "Spinoza's Dream" by Dave Nachmanoff, as discussed on Nakedly Examined Music #20.
