Immortality is not such a tall order as it may seem at the first glance. The situation in which man can claim the right to become a woman and at the same time cannot affirm his right to exist for eternity is in fact quite the recent occurrence, as we shall see in the new KT Miscellanea.
Learning philosophy does not come about solely or even primarily from reading volumes of books; sometimes it comes about from resolving not so apparent layers of meaning contained in the single sentence. In this traditional “metaphysics (even) for housewives” podcast we’ll demonstrate just how this comes about by taking into consideration poignant formulation of truth handed to us from 13th Century: The Truth is undividedness (or “indivision”) od Being and what is.
Recent ballyhoo about an attempt to justify “third trimester” abortion in USA provides us with ample opportunity to analyze the thing itself: to make explicit what is implicit to the act of abortion. In this video we argue that infanticide – a supposed “slippery slope” of the pro-abortion argument – is nothing but terminus, a logically explicated boundary of the abortion itself, into which abortion in the end has to resolve. We argue the point mainly from the stand point of open infanticide advocates, whom we already discussed on KT, and simple presumptions of traditional application of logic.
“Open mindedness” … such a common place epithet. Yet, as with most common place epithets it conceals a more deeper cause within it. In this podcast we’ll shed some light on the fact that mind is by its very nature open and how this can become impediment when confronted with its ultimate opposite – systemic thinking; a veritable epitome of “closed mind”, encompassing phenomena from political correctness to Internet mediated intellectuality seemingly opposed to this prevailing ideology of our age. We attempt to demonstrate that conflict between the open and closed mind is in effect an activity of differentiating between Intellect and Ego as metaphysical realities.
The horror of history … there’s an air of triviality in this oft repeated phrase, don’t you think? Granted that it is not trivial or that we should address even trivialities if we want our thinking to have serious consequences, could we counter its unspoken conclusion of “let’s be done with it, then” with the question: “if the life is problem to us, should we solve it by dying?” In this article by the head of the KT’s Black Sea Fleet Mihai Marinescu we are presented with the nuanced and definite negative answer to this question.
In this iteration of her Luminar podcast Deirdre provides us with an exhaustive run down of the situation on gender multiplication front, including, but not limited to: difference between biological gender dysphoria and transgenderism, manipulation of children, trans lobby, posthumanist aspects of transgenderism and other merry subjects.
It is more or less usual procedure to observe political correctness from the point of view of someone rejecting it – looking from the outside upon this peculiar edifice and attempting to describe and explain it. However this always seems to be not completely satisfactory. There’s always a sense of some point being missed.
Well, here we’ll attempt something different: show how PC acts upon us from the standpoint of one submitting to it and suffering its coercive power. From this angle, some quite worrisome insights become apparent, chief one of them being a potential of PC to act intimately – intrinsically – i.e. invisibly upon the will itself, changing not only actions and thoughts, but very faculties of man that act or think.
From all the measures God applied to this world of ours, the weight seems to be the bothersome one. Or is it? In this Miscellanea we’ll employ the help of St. Thomas Aquinas to resolve this difficulty.
Cambridge political scientist claims that six years olds should be granted the right to vote and The Guardian journalist steps in to qualify what he means. An ample opportunity for us on KT to illustrate what we mean when we differentiate between democracy understood as politeia and democracy revered as God. In tow we bring much more, of course: totalitarian mindset and fluffy rhetoric, doubtful quality of higher learning, children psychology, obsession about population reduction as the mainstay of ruling European ideology and other worthwhile points. All this to point out how with Kali Tribune even reading The Guardian column can be a rewarding experience.
