John Vervaeke and Christopher Mastropietro: Reinventio #7 Eros and Agape
from Parallax · host Andrew Sweeny
Here is the 7th of our ‘reinventio’ series—the latin word which means to both invent and discover. An amazing conversation where we go very deep on the agony of eros and the potential of agape. John Vervaeke is a professor at the University of Toronto and the creator of the popular online YouTube Series ‘Awakening from The Meaning Crisis’, which is a rich feast of cognitive science, philosophy, religion, and the history of ideas. What makes Vervaeke special in my opinion is the breadth of his work, but his courage descend the ivory tower and talk to people ‘on the street’—and to exemplify his ideas. His hero is Socrates, and he embodies the living dialogue and courage that Socrates represents.
