Don't mistake my kindness for weakness. I am kind to everyone ― Al Capone #alcapone #short

Aristotle's theory of time #philosophy #aristotle
Aristotle's theory of time is one of the most influential in the history of #philosophy. He defines time as "the number of changes with respect to before and after." This means that time is not a substance or a thing in itself, but rather a way of ordering change. Time is made up of instants, which are the smallest units of time. Instants are not divisible, but they can be compared to each other in terms of before and after.
#aristotle argues that #time is dependent on change. There can be no time without change, because time is the way we order change. Change, on the other hand, can exist without time. For example, if there were no changes in the universe, there would be no time.
Aristotle also argues that time is continuous. This means that there are no gaps between instants. Any two instants can be divided into an infinite number of smaller instants. This is because change is continuous. There are no discrete changes, but rather a continuous flow of change.
Aristotle's theory of time has been influential in many different areas of philosophy, including the philosophy of science, the philosophy of mind, and the philosophy of religion. His views on time have also been debated by philosophers throughout history.
Here are some of the key features of Aristotle's theory of time:
* Time is not a substance or a thing in itself, but rather a way of ordering change.
* Time is made up of instants, which are the smallest units of time.
* Instants are not divisible, but they can be compared to each other in terms of before and after.
* Time is dependent on change. There can be no time without change, but change can exist without time.
* Time is continuous. This means that there are no gaps between instants.
Aristotle's theory of time is a complex and sophisticated one, and it has had a profound influence on the way we think about time. It is a theory that is still debated and discussed today.

lives of the fathers 1650 samuel clarke
#books #antique #livesofthefarthers #religion #ignatuis #polycarp
He was born 10 October 1599 at Wolston, Warwickshire, the son of Hugh Clarke (d. 1634), who was vicar of Wolston for forty years. Clarke was educated by his father till he was thirteen; then at the free school in Coventry; and when seventeen was entered at Emmanuel College, Cambridge.[1] He was ordained about 1622, and held charges at Knowle in Warwickshire, Thornton-le-Moors in Cheshire, and Shotwick on the estuary of the Dee. Here, 2 February 1626, he married Katherine, daughter of Valentine Overton, rector of Bedworth, Warwickshire.
Clarke had already given some offence by his puritan tendencies. He accepted a lectureship at Coventry, where he was opposed by Samuel Buggs, who held both the city churches. Buggs persuaded Bishop Thomas Morton to inhibit Clarke from preaching, and, though Archbishop George Abbot had given him a license, Clarke had to leave Coventry. He was protected by Robert Greville, 2nd Baron Brooke, and finally accepted another lectureship in Warwick, where complaints were still made of his omission of ceremonies. On 23 April 1633 he was inducted to the rectory of Alcester, presented to him by Lord Brook. Clarke make himself conspicuous by attacking James I's Book of Sports, set forth afresh by authority in 1634.
Samuel Clarke (1599-1682)
In 1640 he was deputed with Arthur Salwey to visit Charles I at York in order to complain of the et cetera oath. The king made some difficulty in seeing them, but promised that they should not be molested till their petition could come before parliament. On 23 October 1642 Richard Baxter was preaching for Clarke at Alcester, when the guns of the battle of Edgehill were heard, and next day they rode over the battle-field.
Clarke going to London soon afterwards was pressed to the curacy of St. Bennet Fink, in the gift of the chapter of Windsor. The former curate having been expelled, Clarke was elected in his place by the parishioners, and when the war was over resigned Alcester, which was troubled by 'sectaries,' in order to retain it. He occupied himself in writing books, dated from his study in Threadneedle Street. He was well known among the London clergy; was a governor and twice president of Sion College; and served on the committee of ordainers for London in 1643. He was one of the fifty-seven ministers who, 20 January 1649, signed a protest against taking away the king's life. He assisted in drawing up the jus divinum ministerii evangelici, issued by the London Provincial Assembly in 1653, in defence of the regular ministry against the lay-preaching permitted by the independents. In 1654 he was an assistant to the parliamentary commission for the expulsion of scandalous ministers and schoolmasters in the city of London.
At the Restoration Clarke was deputed by the London ministers to congratulate the king; and he took part with Baxter and others in the Savoy Conference. He was ejected in 1662, with two of his sons and four other members of his family. In 1665, with a few other Nonconformists, he took the oath against resistance imposed by the Five Mile Act. Judge John Kelynge, before whom he appeared, congratulated the swearers upon their renunciation of the solemn league and covenant. Clarke disavowed this interpretation, and to put his motives beyond suspicion retired to Hammersmith 24 April 1666. Before his ejection he married his friend Baxter to Margaret Charlton (10 September 1662). Clarke continued to communicate at his parish church. He moved to Isleworth, and spent his time in compiling popular books, chiefly on biography. His wife died 21 June 1675, aged 73, and he wrote her life. He died at Isleworth 25 December 1683.

#diogonese
Diogenes of Sinope (c. 412/404 – c. 323 BC), also known as Diogenes the Cynic, was a Greek philosopher and one of the founders of Cynicism. He was born in Sinope, an Ionian colony on the Black Sea coast of Anatolia in 412 or 404 BC and died at Corinth in 323 BC.
#diógenes was a controversial figure. He was banished, or fled from, Sinope over debasement of currency. He lived in a tub in the marketplace in Athens, begging for food and openly defying social conventions. He was known for his sharp wit and his willingness to challenge the status quo.
One of Diogenes's most famous stories is of him searching for an honest man with a lantern in broad daylight. This story is often interpreted as a commentary on the corruption and hypocrisy of Diogenes's time.
Diogenes's philosophy was based on the belief that the simple life was the best life. He rejected material possessions and social conventions, and he believed that people should live in accordance with nature. He also believed that it was important to be self-sufficient and to live a life of virtue.
Diogenes's philosophy has had a lasting impact on Western thought. His ideas have been influential in the development of Stoicism, Epicureanism, and other schools of philosophy. He is also considered to be one of the founders of modern anarchism.
Here are some other things that Diogenes was known for:
He lived in a barrel in the marketplace in Athens.
He begged for food and openly defied social conventions.
He was a sharp wit and was known for his challenges to the status quo.
He searched for an honest man with a lantern in broad daylight.
He rejected material possessions and social conventions.

12 things stoics should avoid
Stoics are a school of Hellenistic philosophy founded in Athens by Zeno of Citium in the early 3rd century BC. They are best known for their teachings on the importance of virtue, reason, and living in accordance with nature.
Zeno of Citium, founder of Stoicism
#stoicshots #philosophy #jontyknine
Stoics believe that virtue is the only good and that everything else is indifferent. They also believe that we should not let external events control our emotions, but rather should focus on our own thoughts and actions.
Some of the most famous Stoics include:
Zeno of Citium, the founder of Stoicism

Stoicism has had a major impact on Western thought, and its principles can still be applied to our lives today. For example, Stoics can teach us how to:
Deal with difficult emotions by understanding that they are not caused by external events, but rather by our own thoughts and interpretations of those events.
Live in the present moment by focusing on what we can control and letting go of what we cannot.
Find meaning in life by living in accordance with our own values and principles.
If you are interested in learning more about Stoicism, there are many resources available online and in libraries. You can also find Stoicism-related meetups and workshops in many cities.

#socrates - The three filter test
One day in ancient Greece, an acquaintance met with the great philosopher Socrates and said, “Do you know what I just heard about your friend?"
“Hold on a minute,” Socrates replied. “Before telling me anything, let’s put it through the triple filter test.”
“Triple filter?” the man asked.
“That’s right,” Socrates continued. “The first filter is truth. Are you absolutely sure that what you are about to tell me is true?"
The man replied, “Well, no… I just heard about it and—”
Socrates interrupted, “Alright, so you don’t even know if it’s true. Now let’s try the second filter, the filter of goodness. Is what you are about to tell me about my friend something that’s good?”
The man replied, “No, on the contrary—”.
Socrates interrupted again, “So you want to tell me something bad about him, but you’re not certain it’s true. Okay let’s try the final filter, the filter of usefulness. Is what you want to tell me about my friend going to be useful for me?”
The man replied, “Not really—”.
Socrates concluded, “Well, if what you want to say is not true, not good, nor useful, then why say it at all?”
