Philosopher Gabriel Marcel warns that dependence on gadgets reduces us to mere functions, while true self-awareness and freedom come from internal focus.

    Science gives us data and information. And, of course, as experts, scientists give their "expert opinion." But, 9 out of 10 times, scientists are trained to be collectors of data unless they are theoretical scientists or the equivalent. So, most of the time, it is appropriate for philosophers and other "thinkers" to ponder the meaning of the scientific work and how to best use it. The bigger and more profound the science, the more important the separation.

    If I am pursuing to reach my authentic self as what I learned in psychology. Could I simultaneously disregard my will and pursue God's will as what I learned in my Catholic religion?

    • @loverofthesacredheart
      @loverofthesacredheart 2 місяці тому

      Catholic convert and PhD student in clinical psychology here :) please forgive me if I don't explain this perfectly, but, to my understanding, your authentic self is the person who God created you to be. Sin makes us less ourselves-- when we pursue a deeper connection with God (both in the context of more overtly spiritual pursuits and through psychotherapy, which, when done in alignment with the Good, is from God), it helps to untangle the knots within ourselves of our psychological pain and helps us to blossom as a transformed self who is actually closer to who we always were in God's eyes all along. There are so, so many ways that the evils of this world drag us into dark places where we, due to our own complex pain and coping mechanisms, desire something that is contrary to the will of God. But we know as Catholics that, even if gratifying/pleasurable in the short term, this will ultimately 1) be self-destructive and 2) likely lead us fall further away from our fullest potential. One of the beautiful things, though, is that, while God is very much greater than and beyond the individual psyche, He also dwells deep within each human soul. When we come closer to our true selves through the healing process, we come closer and closer to knowing Him within our own soul. There is also the element that we have a vast part of our psyche which is not always immediately conscious; so, while we can consciously desire something which is contrary to the will of God, in the innermost parts of ourselves which can at times be covered by our pain and our sin, what we yearn for the most is God and all He is-- the Good, True, and Beautiful. Through God's grace both directly and working through practices such as good psychotherapy, our task is to work through the issues within ourselves which alienate us from God, and the more that we uncover within ourselves, the more we will find that our deepest desire is for Him. Therefore, pursuing God and His will *is* pursuing your authentic self, and pursuing your truly authentic self (not the lies which contemporary secular culture advocates about the human person and identity) is a pursuit of connection with God.

      That's an awesome question! I have been working on the same thing. For me, I think a key is to realize that God made me in His image, unique and unrepeatable. My authentic self is good because God made me good. When I am being my authentic self, I am being who God made me to be. I find there is no conflict. All my major sins and vices come from my false self, distorted by fears and trauma. Often the sins and vices are bad coping mechanisms the false self has adopted going through a lonely, corrupt world.

    Yeah you COULD say that all these things you don’t understand about the brain came about by a deity, but why would you? It’s just a personal incredulity of yours. Are you unaware that we know how the brain works? Maybe not completely since it’s still a new field and doing some tests would be unethical, but we know how the brain works to such a degree that we can perform surgery on it and even alter how you think and behave using specific chemicals. We know how the brain likely evolved and there isn’t any deity that’s required for it. These events you’re talking about in regard to evolution aren’t random either, as evolution is a process that has selection pressures to weed out detrimental mutations and keep beneficial ones. Finally, we have no reason to believe that everything was made just for us because we’re just that special. No, we’re a highly intelligent species of ape living on a planet that tries to kill he constantly. If everything were made for us, you’d think the universe or even our own damn planet would be more hospitable. Yknow what would really make us think at least the planet was made for us? Having the vast majority covered in water that we can actually drink. But instead we have oceans that are way too salty to drink or we’ll become dehydrated and die, which is even more messed up when you realize that salt is also a critical part of our diet that we need to survive.

    3:10 you are concluding that without explaining in beforehand what your defintion of sex is. Depends on this definition if you can to call somebody with both characteristics (organs/chromosomes) a separate sex or not. But - as you chose to not consider them a separate sex - would you please illuminate me, how you then call a person with a) both characteristics and b) someone who has no typically female and characteristics at all? What sex are they, according to your logic? 3:15 (first of all, because they are forced to), but that has nothing to do with biology and therefore is no argument. You mix up (purposely!) Sex and gender. All in all, seems to me that you chose your answers before asking the questions.

    Anything to get around the fact we have souls and we are more than our bodies. Our mind, will, and emotions make up our soul, that is something that you can't keep in a physical body. When we pass, we are still alive, just not on Earth anymore. These worldy people just don't understand that the physical realm is a realm created AFTER the spiritual. We were created "before the foundation of the world" as the Bible says. We were placed into our bodies at a specific time and place for a specific purpose. Anything to discredit God's role in creation and our lives.
