Thank you so much! I'm currently writing an essay about the Enlightenment and your breakdown of Kant is making it unmeasurably easier. We need more educators like you!!
Hello, I hope you're good good you share with me your essay about enlightenment and thanks. I'm undergraduate student and I'm studying about enlightenment.❤
I’m crying tears of joy right now. I have been having panic attacks and constant anxiety now that the end of the semester is culminating in holiday and financial stress. Your video brought me SO much relief because it’s so clear, understandable, and answers exactly a question i didn’t think it was possible to get an answer to (Kant’s reference to the imposed nonage of women “the entire fair sex.” Your video and clear explanation has honestly helped me in unprecedented emotional and psychological ways. I came here to understand Kant’s Enlightenment a bit more and I walked away with that exact expectation fulfilled, as well as relief that I’m not entirely an idiot and people out there can explain these things to me. Thank you for the help on my paper!!!!!
this dumb ass Moyd certainly can"t think. Pandemic? Says who? Evidence' ( the Tv). You are now a slave and will NEVER EVER be free again. Respond to this in three or four years and see if im not wrong. Nothing will have changed. The life you know befor this LIE is forever gone. Belive NOTHING the media, or the Universities say. This teacher is OK, but even he plays the master's game. Notice the lines people won't cross, or are afraid to cross. Whatever the media pushed is a lie designed to destroy you, especially if your white. The Suicide of the West does not hapen all at once by chance. One country may adopt liberal self hate, but not every single one of them. Trust only yiur senses and your instincts that have grown from those senses. I could write an hour longer on this. You're all suckers. You're all slaves. This teacher has to know this, the question is why he wong say it. He can't, hes a slave too. If he really spoke the truth, he woulnt be allowed to teach. Anyway stop beliven the obvious lie. This so called virus is a lie.

That's good advice, but everyone in my life boat is throwing meat in the water to attract the sharks, and there is NO land in sight! Thanks.
I found Kant's essay on enlightenment both inspiring and surprising. It is one of my favourite essays. He really was an optimist and that is worth remembering today. He said it was not really that hard to learn to use your own mind; it can be done! How good is that to hear today? Yet it was written in the 1700s. I appreciate your explanation of nonage, a concept I missed in my reading of the essay. Thank-you for explaining that. I would enjoy attending your lectures on enlightenment.
This was absolutely excellent. The way you described Enlightenment made it easily digestible, and the commentary on Kant's essay added substantial clarification to many of his points. Thank you for teaching!
Fantastic video Mr. Richey. It appears that modern society has fallen back into nonage: blind conformity, lack of creativity, acting just as machines - it is nearly impossible to find people who can think for themselves!
EvuL In matters of religion, its almost impossible to have an independent thinking since religion is based on a supernatural authority dictated in scriptures. In matters of philosophy, its always possible.
Fallen back into? No sir... (or Ma'am, my apologies), but no. Society has not yet attained escape from nonage, that's the point. We haven't fallen back at all, we simply haven't progressed. The more populated we become without universal and unifying words and constructs, the closer we come to imploding, sure. Society is STILL in need of Enlightenment. And society is STILL without it.
moonlington Interesting this became as shallow as American politics as now this president’s challenger can ne’er do the same. I’m afraid philosophy, even political, is far deeper a subject.
Thank you so much! you somehow took a University level paper that made no sense to me 30 min ago and made it all make sense! you have brought me so much peace in knowing I can now write my assignment with an in depth understanding. Blessings!
Don't bother yourself standing all that time sir , you're very much helpful either way. I wanna say that I'm grateful for your teaching and thanks a lot 🖤🖤
Comparing then VS now we've come a long way in the 200 orso years since this piece has been written. Surely some of it has been realized now the modern age has brought about the technology to connect more and more of these Enlightened individuals from across the globe to share our sacred rights in some form of freedom. Talk about optimism! It sure is a term to live by during the liberation of humankind. For many a reassurrance, for some an example. Nonetheless, it's beautiful to see these words from long ago resonate with this time.
Kant's enlightenment definition has inspired Sartre's portrayal that "we are doomed to freedom" ... Very few philosophers from the 19th century have not adopted a more or less part of Kant's positions. Kant's definition of intellectual independence constitutes a "bible" for every reflected person.
Actually the same people that started covid, that did 9/11, etc , and the same people that want a NWO want this "enlightenment"..So I'd be careful what you wish for. They conflate Gnosis, Enlightenment and knowledge or knowing with freedom. They worship enlightenment and knowledge as a god ahead of any real type of love of care, and in this internet age, they can control what people get enlightened to using algorithms.
I just wanted to say this helped get a 5 on my AP Euro DBQ last year on Enlightened absolutism. I used some information from this in my contextualization, like quoting "Dare to know" and "nonage" to contextualize the Enlightenment before going into its effects in my body paragraphs to argue that it produced gradual rather than radical change (that was the prompt I got).
Tom, I apologize if this has been discussed in the comments already and I'm being redundant, however, it seems to me that what Kant was saying about rights to public expression (around 11:00) isn't just about maintaining freedom of speech, it's about maintaining freedom to be IN PUBLIC expressing ANYTHING. This was about establishing and maintaining the freedom to preach in the public square and establish a flock of followers who were atheists and understood the churches power at the time was imprisonment. At this point in history, wasn't Kant saying "people have to be free to dissent religious constructs and establish a mature truth within themselves regarding reality and what it means to be a human being" with the SAFEST words possible? For me, there is genius in expressing anything that attempts to dismantle the religious constructs that are without question maintaining nonage across the land.
Its a tough road but once the path is known you can't go back nature is so wonderful i often find myself looking at birds habits only to hear someone ask me " are you ok". People are mean but sometimes just talking or the act of kindness changes things. Being enlightened is good but alot of times tough.
Thankyou. Kant seems to be in the skeptical tradition which was a characteristic of the Enlightenment together with its' inclination to view science in opposition to organised religion. His thinking is a cultural consequence of 300 years of Protestantism, rejecting Catholic Church authority.
We still deal with a lot of nonage even outside of religion. The educational system teaches you things and tells you to "shut up and listen to what we tell you". Even with this "scientific revolution" and technocracy, people still fall to nonage. Religious or not.
Could you please add your sources for the quotes you used in the description box? (Appreciation to anyone in the audience who would be able to do this as well.)
Tom Richey, I enjoy the way you presented the information on enlightenment ( and the comparisons with the scientific revolution). I wanted to ask could you make a book list that has books you find rich in perspective,knowledge, and understanding?
Plato's Republic is great starting point. I personally went from Plato to the Bible, then The Federalist Papers, Kant, then legal treatises of Coke, Blackstone, and Kent. Obviously my area of interest is law and nature, but I don't think there is a wrong approach to enlightenment as long as you can keep your own personal bias held in check the majority of the time
Kudos for this very succinct explanation, and thumbs-up for the flare-up of passion in your last sentences. Being German, I sort of stumbled over the word "nonage". I assume it is the standard translation for the word "Unmündigkeit" used by Kant. And although I have a hunch that the two terms are not exactly the same, my point is rather that "Unmündigkeit", to this day, is a word that when used in general conversation in German does not require any explanation. It is simply common knowledge and easy to understand. Am I wrong when I assume that "nonage" is not as easily understood in the English language, and that readers of the essay might have to chew quite a bit on that term?
thank you so much for your information... I am looking for an easy understandable answer for meaning enlightenment... your video made me crystal clear... :)
The 18th book of the Bible is Job , followed by Psalms and then Proverbs. Books 18-22 are the poetic books and the 18th-22nd centuries reflect or pattern the 18th-22nd books of the Bible. (Well, the 22nd century isn’t here yet). I’m not surprised to see the Age of Enlightenment in the 18th century as Job was learning through his sufferings how God rules over men. The telephone was invented in the 19th century just as Psalms the 19th book is a cry/call (phone means call) unto God. The 20th century reflects Proverbs/Luke/3John. While Luke was a physician (Repha in Hebrew, a Reish word, the 20th letter of the Hebrew Alphabet) John wishes the readers to be in good health in the 20th epistle. The 20th century saw a rise in the medical provision.
Personally, I think the hate speech laws are a tool for debate and free exploration of ideas. It's absolutely fine in England to debate multiculturalism, but people are not allowed to 'express themselves' by harassing a ethnic minority woman down the street shouting racial slurs at her. Surely for Enlightenment values, the ethnic minority woman should be enabled to feel safe enough to express her thoughts, too? To have a religiously tolerant society, didn't they first need to have laws against abusing/attacking/murdering members of other religions? Our hate speech laws don't touch anyone engaging in non-abusive, intellectual, debate.
When you say sacred, do you mean inherent? Since Kant is challenging religious ideas, it seems odd to use the term "sacred" implying something God-given. You use the phrase Nature-given as one might use the phrase God-given. Irregardless of how humanity came to have the capacity for self thought & self direction, and cautiously considering his optimism that people will consider the impact of their personal freedoms on society & the world, Kant's ideas are a very solid rallying cry of all people who challenge the status quo of any aspect of society. My advice is challenge it, just try not to be too stupid.
That's part of the trick, he's not actually challenging religious ideas, he's trying to replace other religious ideas with his own. The same people that started covid, that did 9/11, etc , and the same people that want a NWO want this "enlightenment". Look into things like Sufism, Jewish Mysticism, the eastern Orthodox and western Catholic church split. Research Freemasonry, why they want Eucenism, why they use of Kabbalah, etc... They conflate Gnosis, Enlightenment and knowledge or knowing with freedom. They worship enlightenment and knowledge as a god ahead of any real type of love or care, and in this internet age, they can control what people get enlightened to using algorithms.
I wonder which religious institution this gentle man has been interacting with. I like most but not all what he says out of believing cliches and biases about "Faith". Dr.Rev. Martin Luther King, Jr. and many other people of faith influenced people's lives greatly and fought for the freedom of those oppressed by the government-NOT BY RELIGION.
Freedom is the highest principle within the "Kingdom" or Government of God. Christ died "for the very sake of Freedom itself". Angels are indeed free and make free will choices. According to the teachings of Christ, we are responsible for what we know and understand and to progress beyond what we currently understand into deeper understanding. We are to development into the "Mind of Christ".
