Hillsdale College is an independent institution of higher learning founded in 1844 by men and women “grateful to God for the inestimable blessings” resulting from civil and religious liberty and “believing that the diffusion of learning is essential to the perpetuity of these blessings.” It pursues the stated object of the founders: “to furnish all persons who wish, irrespective of nation, color, or sex, a literary, scientific, [and] theological education” outstanding among American colleges “and to combine with this such moral and social instruction as will best develop the minds and improve the hearts of its pupils.” As a nonsectarian Christian institution, Hillsdale College maintains “by precept and example” the immemorial teachings and practices of the Christian faith.
The College also considers itself a trustee of our Western philosophical and theological inheritance tracing to Athens and Jerusalem, a heritage finding its clearest expression in the American experiment of self-government under law.
By training the young in the liberal arts, Hillsdale College prepares students to become leaders worthy of that legacy. By encouraging the scholarship of its faculty, it contributes to the preservation of that legacy for future generations. By publicly defending that legacy, it enlists the aid of other friends of free civilization and thus secures the conditions of its own survival and independence.
This channel, this playlist of highlight specifically, is changing my life. Thank you so much for being remarkably outstanding in a sea of UA-cam pollution.
God doesn’t care about your happiness, he cares about your Holiness!
The more I watch, the more I learn. This is what this platform was meant to be. A place of learning and Hillsdale is excellent at this.
The apostle Paul had been a student of Gamaliel, who'd been a disciple of Aristotle. Paul exhibited joy practicing excellence thru fiery trials, a testimony of happiness walking with the Holy Spirit.
Pleasure is temporary Happiness durable
Happiness seems to be an elusive experience that is subjective to perspective and one's ability to recognize the fleeting moment that it is obtainable.
Everyday is a school day there is always something new to learn thank you for the great content
Thank you. I'm really liking thinking about these conversations.

Happiness is like jam it's hard to spread it without getting some on yourself.
Grasp the work of a human being
Being at work - virtues
Happiness is activity of the soul
I think happiness is a holistic satisfaction with oneself in all the different areas that being human implies.
And thank you, Sir, for that! 👍
Thank you!!!
Pray an act of perfect contrition everyday
"How many times
Have you heard a man say
'If I had his money, Id do things my way.'
But little does he know, its so hard to find
one rich man in ten,
With a satisfied mind."
Bob Dylan

“He who knows himself is truly happy.” Self-knowledge consists in realizing that we have a heart or spirit which is absolutely perfect, but which has been covered with dust by the accumulation of passions derived from the body and its animal nature. The essence of oneself is likened to a perfect mirror which if polished would reveal one’s true divine nature. The key to this polishing is the elimination of selfish desires and the adoption of a contrary desire to do what is right in all aspects of one’s life. As he writes, “the aim of moral discipline is to purify the heart from the rust of passion and resentment till, like a clear mirror, it reflects the light of God.” (Al Ghazali)
Great job buddy!
The Bible says happiness is Child Like not Childish

Happiness as the Highest Good
- Happiness as the highest good is undisputed but needs a clearer definition.

Good jod🎉😅
I would love to see my youngest boy going to your collage
Aristoteles is interresting, because interlectually challenging, but if you can read that without a singigicant portion of yours being buringly mad it's questionable wether I think you'r a good person
Man was made for obedience to the Lord, though always a complete failure at it, but continually attempting.
If you believe in the truth about,God 🙏 and we will Pray for this one video about, happy ness is the best to be able to see the truth about what we call the American dream and justice and faithful and then a better and then we allowed the church to tell you what Happy is the one that Yeshua who saw that the people who don't know what is going on, so now I'm just waiting for the American Happy Day.
His Name is Jesus. It does not have any power with a Y!
@@misty5805 you don't know anything about Hebrew there is no J. in Hebrew language at all.
To be Christlike...we should show grace to others.

I don't remember "the ultimate purpose of life" according to Aristotle being "happiness", i think it was more about living a good life. The goal of "being happy" is absurd and foolish.
That background music definitely does not make me happy🤣✌

Life of fatted cattle
Lol. Not counting engineering work at a customer's site on a machine that makes semiconductor chips that is not running and cost millions of dollars and you are there to fix it. That's not fun. Oh, and it's winter. You are staying at a hotel, and it's freezing cold outside... and windy
Paychecks for work rendered are an honorable thing ... and rendering excellent work that brings relief in critical times of need is honorable. Relieving a problem is excellence. Overcoming the cold wind is excellent!

Sound learning? Only if you cloak it under a right wing, Jesus-loving, totally skewed curriculum that has an 1800's framework. At Hillsdale all the good in the world circumvents back to Hillsdale and its apologetic teachings. It looks good on the surface, as does all confidence games. But there it is, the Hillsdale message cloaked in the love for an imaginary deity. If you feel warm and cozy with the Hillsdale bilge, it's probably too late. You've taken too big of a gulp from their Kool-Aid.
