Episode 165: Spinoza on Biblical Criticism (Part Two)
Published 9 years, 3 months ago
Description
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?
