This person was born in 1872 - almost 150 years ago. Thanks to technology, we are looking at a man and a mind from a very different age and it's amazing
He lived at a time where man never left earth, computers filled a room, and when the oldest baby boomers were barely close to being 10.
He lived in a time where he would have known people who lived during the industrial revolution
@@jtgd and that's just the 1950s you're describing. He grew up in the 1870s and 1880s, when planes didn't exist, nor computers nor radio, european colonialism was dominant, Einstein's theory of relativity hadn't happened, and Russia was still an empire.
And if this footage survives, a generation will see this after hundreds or maybe thousands of years later.

Bertrand Russell was born in 1872, died 1970. His Grandfather, who raised him met Napoleon and here we are watching this interview. Mindblowing.
My great-grandfather's life overlapped with Russell's 66 years. So he was also exceptionally long-lived. And I was close to his son, my grandfather. So, I got a better look at that earlier age than most people born in the 60s.
To be fair, Russell's grandfather died when Russell was 6. He was born in 1792 though. Crazy to think he's 200 years my senior, but the gap between me and his grandson is just a little over 20 years.
He was also British PM twice
And?
Probably because They were all freemasons and Illuminati
"My grandfather was born in the early years of the French Revolution ... he introduced the Reform Bill of 1832 ..." My God, it's like watching history unfold before your eyes.
HELLO Payne 👋👋 How are you doing and how's the weather condition going on there...?
His grandfather was John Russell (1792-1878), who was Prime Minister between 1846 and 1852, and again in 1855-56.

@tedgrant2 Figuratively of course.
Imagine being raised by someone born in 1791. Someone who actually met and spoke with Napoleon Bonaparte.
And imagine who that man must have known as a boy in 1790's - people with personal memories of the last Stuart Monarchs.
Men who had fought in the Revolutionary War and were still only in their 30's.
Any lover of history must understand how wonderful this tangible connection to the past feels.
Exactly.
Heh, yes that got me too. It blew my mind as a child when sitting on her knee that my Gran (b. 1904) used to sit on the knee of someone (her Grandad) who had sat on the knee of the Duke of Wellington.
If you make a chain of hypothetical people that all live to be 100 years old, and who themselves met another 100 year old as a child, the 20th person in the chain would have been alive at the time of Jesus. Meanwhile, the 100th person in the chain would have been witnessing the dawn of civilization. Human history is very short.
That was well said.
It always amazed me to the core - the contrast of how recent the history of the Modern Age really is compared to the human life and the transient nature of all that happens within said human life
"My grandfather was born during the French revolution." You don't hear that very often!
Does seem rather remote.
The most horrible thing that ever happened to poor young Bertie? Gladstone, Prime Minister at the time, came around looking for Lord John Russell, little Bertie's father. Lord John was out, so little Bertie sat the Prime Minister down for dinner. They ate in silence.. Then little Bertie asked, tremulously, "Was everything all right?"
"Yes, but I do wonder why you serve the port in claret glasses," said Gladstone.
Ah, liberalism!
@@TheDavidlloydjones A good story, which explains a lot about Bertie. The sense of shame at such an outrageous faux pas must never have left him.
@@briangarrett2427 🤣😎🤦♀️
I think not.
I think little Bertie started acquiring his sense of the ridiculousness of Establishments and authorities fairly early in life. Gladstone was merely helping the process along here.
What I wonder is, at what age did Bertie start getting into the port? He kept his dotage going with seven Scotches a day, which may not be a bad way of spending your nineties, as long as you get your vitamins and some roughage... I plan on exploring the question, though perhaps a little later than that in my life.

@@themayhemera3046
What counts is empirical reality.
Conviction, as often as not, is a mental illness.
@@themayhemera3046 “The fundamental cause of the trouble is that in the modern world the stupid are cocksure while the intelligent are full of doubt.”
Bertrand Russell highlighting the problem we all must face as we get older: the world and people of our youths will completely disappear over time. It's astonishing how few people realise that, and how so many are completely shocked when it happens.
Yes, I was a teenager not too long ago and still feel like a teenager at heart but I also have a teenager that acts like a 30-year-old. We are only as young as our souls. My soul is immortal.
I did not realize that until. just a few years ago.
A question has been haunting me since I have been a kid:
When do people stop evolving with the world in which they bath and start to decide it's no more their world? And why do they talk like 'in my day'? Why is today's time no longer 'their time'? Why do they stop listening at new music, and seem to have been frozen in their youth's music?
I'm 60 btw.
I think it happens as you witness the things you loved and knew start to slip away. The older people that raised you and surrounded you begin to vanish as they age or as they die. It takes with it all that you once knew and replaces it with a faster paced world with technology that is hard to keep up with. Less time spent talking and more spent gazing at a screen. It no longer feels like the world you knew because it isn’t. It leaves me with a dull ache for simpler times. I was born in 1966, life was harder sure but it was free. Whilst it is still my time it is not the same, how can it be when all I knew is alien to the young. Music is strongly attached to your youth and the memories attached to certain trends. Saying that new music can be very enjoyable.
I am now 40, I feel I'm on the verge of this point.
It is difficult not to be mesmerised by this intellectual giant. Rational, eloquent, and so effortlessly disposed to answer the questions asked of him. His thoughts are as relevant in 2022 as they were when the interview was recorded.
‘’Scientific societies are as yet in their infancy… It is to be expected that advances in physiology and psychology will give governments much more control over individual mentality than they now have even in totalitarian countries. Fitche laid it down that education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished. Diet, injections(vaccines) and injunctions will combine, from very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible...’’ - Bertrand Russell, 1953

They are very Relevant in 2022
More relevant, really. That we can see perpetuated problems within the gaps of time through his spoken experiences…
It shows how we are never and will never be fully in control.
Bertrand Russell - When you want to teach children to think, you begin by treating them seriously when they are little, giving them responsibilities, talking to them candidly, providing privacy and solitude for them, and making them readers and thinkers of significant thoughts from the beginning. That’s if you want to teach them to think.
This is one of my heroes, perhaps the greatest. He was the first writer who revealed to me that open mindedness and agnosticism were agreeable attitudes to have in my youth. I have most of his books, and read much of them.
I am full of gratitude for his work.
I have all of his books except one or two and many of his essays and even autobiography. He taught me to look for truth even if it is against yourself and stand for it. I almost read him daily (atleast a paragraph) to keep myself rational. He was one of the rare mind and rarely happy man.
"Impact of science on society". Read it? If so, how can a good person look up to this guy?
Wow. This man was my fathers philosophical touchstone.. this paragraph is how he raised us. To the letter. I never realized how important he was for my father.
100% correct because that gets their interest and then the mind takes it in. You can notice it yourself if you read something that you are interested in, you retain most of it, but if not really interested then your mind wanders and it is almost forgotten before you put the book down. I have noticed that if I read something from the computer screen I struggle to retain it, yet out a book the opposite. Just my thoughts.
Fun fact: My grand father saved Russel out of the airplane in Norway that crashed in 1948 , the then 76 year old was in good shape and he lived for another 22 years sharing his wisdom with the world.
That's Amazing
You can't want happiness for proletariat (majority) without wanting unhappiness for bourgeois ( few corrupt inhumane Capitalists ). The fact is Marx showed the proletariat that who is exactly wanting the unhappiness of majority of people for making the 1% world issues of the few blood suckers like Russell. SHAME.
@@niharikasinghsays Stupid comment. A "blood-sucker" who did time for his pacificism and marched against the Bomb. Perhaps you could direct your hate at more obvious blood suckers - you know, the types that really do exploit people, instead of someone who was born into the aristocracy but gave a lot to the world.
Your grand father saved an eugenist that wrote about methods to control the population in " Impact of science on society", including a black plague every generation and genetic alteration. Look it up.
Did he have wisdom? Where did he hide it? You find a man who preached a world in which "science" breeds a handfull of "supermen" who take care of the world and physically, chemically and biologically brainwashes the rest so that, in his words. "even the idea of rebellion appears absurd". And this is his concept of "peace". Thank you for your psychopat.
He speaks with such clarity. Beautiful formed sentences. And so down to earth in his answers.
It's because he was a logician. Frege was the most important logician and yet Frege was a very introvert kind of man and Russell popularised and extended his work. Without this work in logic there would be no digital computer.
*beautifully formed sentences
He's also an awesome author. Especially his books from around 1920 to 1950.
Let's not forget he's nearing 80 years old during the filming of this... Just amazing
He is lovely
For an aristocrat born into wealth and prestige, he was a very humble man and one of the greatest minds of his era
Why shouldn't someone born to wealth and prestige be either humble or possessed of a great mind? If you think these things are the sole preserve of the poor and downtrodden then you are both ignorant of history and bigoted.
@@HampsteadOwl he is saying he would expect an aristocrat to be more arrogant. Not exactly a ridiculous assumption.
@@HampsteadOwl It would be fair to say that he was a most unusual man regardless of his background.
I suppose that's because he learned to "think" beyond the circumstance that bred him, not simply accept he was privileged?
@Juan Perezmost definitely true. 🙂 2 humbled souls we need more of today
You don't have to agree with someone, always, to appreciate their brilliance.
Russel is that sort of person. He is brilliant!
Russell never allowed disagreements with him over anything. He was a hard nut, very hard.
@@AsadAli-jc5tg I do not think that is true at all. He would not have been a philosopher of any note if so.
Basically profoundly a good man
@@AsadAli-jc5tg I suspect that the first three of his four wives (at least) could have testified to that.
yeah a truly singular intellect
This interview is wonderful. A jewel of history. I can't believe I'm watching a report on some of the great minds of the 20th century. Greetings from Argentina.
Si, buena imagen, buen sonido...
Yo también estoy asombrado desde el chaco
The results of those "great minds" clearly, are being told in the 2020s (and what a mess ) !
Eu também estou perplexo.
It was 4 years before my birth and this world seems so far, my god.
He was so sharp and walking like a young man when he was 80 .. amazing.
Russell's precision of thought and language is elevating to watch.

I love how Russell never rejected a question. He always answered the question put to him. This is truly a sign of a great intellect. He never had to steer a question towards his own strong feelings or opinions. He was always direct and to the point of the query put to him.
Maybe he had notice of the questions, or helped design them? That would have been fair enough.

すごい！まだにほんごをべんきょします ^^ Howbout great Japanese philosophers, what would you recommend? I plan to study philosophy in Japan soon and looking forward to it!
His accent was normal for educated people of his time.
He was Lord Russell, after all.
@@sleepingwyvern philosophy is the subject in which you should be least concerned about where the philosopher is born.... it's about thinking openly without boundaries.
Bertrand Russell was the 3rd Earl Russell with a seat in the House of Lords. He was a member of the Russell family, the 1st Earl Russell being the third son of the Duke of Bedford. The Russell family still own significant parts of central London, including Russell Square. It is one of the most aristocratic families in England.
I just love the way they talked back then. Just so elegant. Spoken words had an importance.
I swear to God, I could spend 8 hours listening to this man and not be bored for any second of it.
After that eight hours, you might not swear to god so much anymore...
@@billscannell93 I see your point. But I have a conviction that God does exist, and in order to judge every human being for his actions, he doesn't interfere in this world, and that's why the evil that you see in this world( wars, genocide, rape, The Holocaust) isn't the making of God but of humans. People think that if your prayers weren't answered that means God doesn't exist. No, you have to understand that God isn't there to pamper you, he is there to judge you, to see the goodness or the evil you brought to this world.
@@jerbilourimi358 Well, if I were an omnipotent and purely benevolent spirit, who got it in his/her/its head to create beings such as ourselves, I would create them without the desire to do something called 'evil', or the capability to inflict or experience anything called 'suffering'. (Pure benevolence and omnipotence are logically incompatible, since a being of perfect goodness could not choose to invent evil.) Since this god could presumably design the nature of his creations to be anything he chose, why would he offer them even the choice of such awful things? Who is he trying to impress? Himself? And I'm leaving aside the whole batty notion of offering up his son, who is also himself, as a scapegoat for the evils of beings he created to be capable of evil. None of it makes the slightest sense if you think about it for even one moment, it's totally unintelligible, and Russell makes these points far more eloquently than I ever could.
Dont swear to God listening to a moron like russel who didnt believe in God but does now
Funny. People trying to give you a hard time for the usage of "God".
Why is it old philosophers always seem to "come around"?
The way he walked into the room so effortlessly.
The way he spoke so clearly and intellectually.
The way his mind works in almost perfect human cohesion of beliefs and outlooks of life.
A truly remarkable man.
'The way his mind works in almost perfect human cohesion of beliefs and outlooks of life."
That's too heady a praise for any person. Even in this interview he says something that's completely insane. He thinks it with a world government you could almost certainly eliminate war, those Civil War is haven't happened in almost every country on earth. The entire weight of human history is vehemently against that statement. His mind is interesting and I contributed, but my nose stretches it almost perfect. Everyone is a product of their environment and he grew up in an unbelievably privilege situation his whole life so his views are going to reflect that, and all the flaws inherent in it, just as his opposite would.
@@jasondashney You need to review your comment and correct it for it to make sense, even if English is not your native language. “those civil war is haven’t happened”, for example, makes no sense.
@@russelldawkins9094 i did get what he wanted to explain...
And yes it is always best to double check when we write something
@@russelldawkins9094 Haha, I spoke that answer into my computer and didn't proof read it first.
One of my points was that it's silly to think that you would eliminate war with a world government because almost every country on earth has had a Civil War at some point.
"my nose stretches almost perfect" was probably "his mind is interesting and I can appreciate it, but by no stretch is almost perfect".
@@jasondashney agree...
*_"The rational man will not be too sure that he's right. We ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt."_*

Philosopher, Mr. Bertrand Russell, was, no doubt, a man ahead of his time! His foresight was amazing!! A very interesting fellow indeed!
His class was always overtly impressed by Robert Malthus, which is why they they so mismanaged Ireland. We are just now beginning to realize that mankind might just disappear jus because we don;’t feel the need to reproduce.
I love Bertrand Russell. I read his book "why I am not a Christian" which was rather brave of him to write at that time. But he articulately argued there was much in the Bible that needed questioning which in fact it did. He brings a lot of clarity to many different subjects and sees things as they are and avoids pseudo psychology that other philosophers drone on and on about ad nauseum. Great man great mind....
Mr. Russell, You made me feel as if I was in real French Revolution 1789. Thank you. It is 2021.
If only we all followed this advice: "One of the troubles of the world has been the habit of dogmatically believing something or other. I think all these matters are full of doubt and the rational man will not be too sure that he is right. We ought always to entertain our opinions with some measure of doubt"
Russell himself seemed pretty sure his opinions were correct.
@@ericstewart9742 Thank you for your reply. I trust that as a rational man, Russell thought deeply about his opinions and was subject to changing them if he had any doubts.
@@ericstewart9742 He said in the beginning of the interview that he has changed his opinion on many things. There's a fine line between questioning everything and being a pessimist. Pessimists are always right and at least if they are wrong some good would come from it. 😊

All UA-cam platform hosts should listen to this interview of Bertrand Russell.
I'm afraid they lack the capacity.
How wonderful and ironic, to hear Russell, in the bygone world of the 1950s, talking of how "profoundly different" the 1950s themselves were from the era in which he grew up!
It shows that imagining what the distant past was like is an exercise in futility, because there will be too many unknowns to factor in. It seems that each age can only be understood by those who have actually lived it, and videos like this are gems for the glimpses they afford us.
I disagree. Of course only people that lived through a time can know what it felt like to live through it, but the amount of recorded information available to historians about the last few hundred years and certainly the last century allows us to have a very detailed and nuanced understanding of the past. In terms of actual knowledge as opposed to feeling, a historian today could plausibly know more about the world of 1920 than a person who lived at the time, due to the imperfection of human perception. People are unreliable witnesses, and this is the case for history as much as anything else.
@@cerdic6305 "In terms of actual knowledge as opposed to feeling..." - feeling is actual knowledge! It is, in many cases, more valuable a form of knowledge than information. Mere information never takes the place of experience, and information itself has to be interpreted by "unreliable" individuals.

As someone who has struggled with life and never really understood the purpose of it, I must say listening to Bertrand Russell has brought me much joy. The clarity of his speaking is so simple, but hugely effective. You can learn so much in such a short space of time. Like Bach, Mozart and Beethoven his mind is like a melody that stirs up thought and creativity - he makes you want to learn. Pipe smoking of course is also a joyful pastime.
"Every time philosophy was mentioned, it was summed up completely in these two questions - What is matter? Never mind. What is mind? No matter" 😇

& it is always against the science and morality Genesis 19:36, NIV: "So both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father."
Lot's two daughters had sex with their father on consecutive nights. Acting desperately, but very deliberately, they got him so drunk with wine that he didn't even realize what was happening (Genesis 19:33; 35). Both of Lot's daughters became pregnant through this sexual abuse of their own father.
The various Christian churches fought tooth and nail against the advancement of women, opposing everything from women's right to speak in public, to the use of anesthesia in childbirth (since the bible says women must suffer in childbirth) and woman's suffrage.
New Testament, the bible decrees/order
One bible verse alone, "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" (Exodus 22:18) is responsible for the death of tens of thousands, if not millions, of women. Do women and those who care about them need further evidence of the great harm of Christianity, predicated as it has been on these and similar teachings about women?
It is from the Bible that man has learned cruelty, rapine, and murder; for the belief of a cruel God makes a cruel man.

“If a man sells his daughter as a servant, she is not to go free as male servants do. If she does not please the master who has selected her for himself,[a] he must let her be redeemed. He has no right to sell her to foreigners, because he has broken faith with her. 9 If he selects her for his son, he must grant her the rights of a daughter. 10 If he marries another woman, he must not deprive the first one of her food, clothing and marital rights.(A) 11 If he does not provide her with these three things, she is to go free, without any payment of money.

Chritianity debunked using science & history
As per Bible the creation Begins in 4004 BC at 9 AM on 23rdOctober. Means creation took place nearly 6000 year ago.
Bible said earth is flat , sun moving around the , But Galileo said that the earth is round and circles the sun , and the church blinded him , so that he can never look into another telescope.
Also punish copernicus .
In reality by modern science cosmos is 15 billion years old and that the mind and consciousness has to be factored in. Well the advent of quantum physics has proved Bible wrong.
Undermining of science is evil
When I think of all the harm the Bible has done, I despair of ever writing anything to equal it’
- Oscar Wilde (1854-1900), Irish author

The Bible is one of the most genocidal books in history.

@@AmitKumar-qz2usNo, I disagree. It’s not Religions that bring demise and destruction to society. Rather, it is the lack of understanding of Divine principles and a sense of nihilistic hopelessness that cause demise to personhood, or any society.
I have read his book and do not agree with all aspects of his philosophical inquiries.
Progress does not come from empirical knowledge alone; there are such concepts as spiritual intelligence and emotional development that stem from connection with Divine.
Suicide and homicide, for example, are more common among atheists than those who follow their Faiths. Criminal activities are more common in atheism than those who have a moral code. Relativity in everything implies that there is no discernment between what is evil conduct and what is good conduct.
Philosophy can help religious understanding; but philosophy itself, nor the sciences by themselves, does not necessarily resolve current problems such as violence, racism, hatred of women, injustices, mass shootings, terrorism, etc.
Mao and Lenin, Hitler and Stalin, Marxism and Communism-have caused more murders and harm to innocents than any religion could have.
When you believe in nothing, definitely, you are prone to believe and do anything indefinitely, without limitations.
Your quote about the witch from the Bible -picking and choosing random phrases translated by men -does not explain the evil behaviors of human beings. It is not logical to blame Divine Justice and Mercy for the impulsive evils that men (and women) have done on earth. Killings are found in the Vedas and Mahabharata as well -in fact, quite often, if you haven’t recently read the books.
In fact, Oppenheimer quoted from Hinduism and Eastern philosophy when he said out of guilt and shame for inventing the bomb, being bullied into it by greedy people: “I am become Death said he.” It was terrifying.
War and mass murder have come from a lack of understanding and compassion that the Divine has for humans, (provided that humans have the gumption to read and study all Scriptures openly).
It was Darwin, the non-practicing religionist, more of an atheist, who conceived of superiority theories based on race and looks-look at how much societal damage racial theories have created. Allah, however, treats all people as equal and necessary for human progress:
Russell’s point of “kindly feeling” and inspiration to do good is found in the Quran, along with several Stoic philosophers such as Seneca and Aurelius. Here is a line from Quran:
Sura 30:22, “And among His Signs is the Creation of the Heavens and the earth, and the variations in your languages and colors: verily in that are Signs for those who know.”
Darwin would not have understood such equality of human variety made by God Almighty.
Quran also teaches how to begin by doing good in the family,(not just good to show off as duplicitous relativists show):
Sura 17:23, “Your Lord has decreed that you worship none but Him, and that you be kind to parents. Whether one or both of them attain old age in your life, say not to them a word of contempt, not repel them, but address them in terms of honor. And, out of kindness, lower to them the wing of humility, and say: “My Lord! Bestow on them Your Mercy even as they cherished me in childhood.”
Today, we see news pieces like children shooting their mothers or fathers, taking revenge on family members or elders -not allowed by those who follow the Divine Plan.
You could have mentioned the Bible teaching people to “Honor thy mother and father,” but you chose not to.
Quran Sura 17:32, “Nor come near to adultery: for it is a shameful deed and an Evil, opening the road to other Evils.”
Have you ever met an adulterer or random relativist fornicator who was happy and in a state of inner calm? News is filled with horror stories about people’s sordid lives that come back to haunt them. Even genius Oppenheimer, threw the bomb of adultery on his lover then another lover and wife and so on, not blessed by Divine clearly.
Sura 17:33, “Nor take Life -which Allah has made sacred -except for Just Cause.”
Society will look sadly at the plight of Ukrainians, but not the Palestinians, at the mass shooting victims’ of injustice, but not the Muslim ethnic Chinese.
Sura 17:35, “Give full measure when you measure, and weigh with a balance that is straight: that is the most fitting and the most advantageous in the Final Determination.”
I’d rather respect someone out of my way -who shows me equality and fair treatment than someone who gives me a preference for being comfortable or a woman or a Muslim or an ethnicity -for only Divine (Allah) can judge the ultimate integrity of a person.
People are so influenced by destruction in society and distorted images of Divine Mercy that they wish to become like gods themselves, causing more damage within their souls than any mass shooter can.
Hitler and Goebbels shot themselves, and the lovely family members, and children-Goebbels did, hating himself. Allah says that evil people’s bodies will testify against their own wrongdoings. Divine Justice.
People go to social media -some do -to prove how glorious or glamorous they look from there to wherever, but Allah teaches readers:
Sura 35:10, “If any do seek for glory or power,-to Allah belong all glory and power. To Him mount up all Words of Purity: it is He Who exalts each Deed of Righteousness. Those that lay plots of Evil,-for them is a terrible Penalty; and the plotting of such will be void of results.”
How many Hitler types tried to suppress Jewish people from succeeding, for example? Divine Mercy allowed the worlds best psychologists and theorists and scientists to become successful, yet some are not thankful, while others are.
How many Ku Klux Klan tried to suppress black business owners t from reaching their pinnacle in Tulsa and other places? Allah allowed, through His Divine Mercy, black people to rise again, as Poet Maya Angelou noted in “Still I Rise,” poem.
Yet, some people remain oblivious to Divine Mercy and blame Muslims or Islam for their problems. Others understand Who it was that gave each tribe of the human race goodness and grace and mercy and doing good to fellow man.
Divine Mercy is ubiquitous, not given to a single race or group. Water, from Divine Source, is for everyone, but cruel colonialism has made water impossible for some thirsty children.
Doing good should not be relativistic. It’s for everyone. What is the source of this Mercy, this Energy?
And what is the source of cruelty? Each religion has its theory on the Evil Force, devil or Satan influencing people who are not God-conscious.
What a young face he had at 80 years of age. My idol as a kid.
Same for me. It was a revelation and a great joy to discover his books at the municipal library when was in my early teens. He opened my mind to possibilities I could barely conceive in my working class environment where thinking and questioning were frowned upon, and made you an object of suspicion even contempt. I thank this man. It's very moving for me to hear him talk.
Exactly.
He was a psyco. Read "impact of science on society" to see how evil he was.
@@Daniela-pr7rz Do you not realize he was illustrating what COULD occur, not what SHOULD occur. He was warning his readers of the potential dangers on the horizon, not advocating for them.
It is fascinating to watch one of the greatest intellects of the 20th. century speaking in such a lucid style. I recall struggling to follow his complex theories in my university days, which, perhaps, I never managed to do !!
My guess is that if you have been fortunate enough to spend an hour with him in his study, all would have been made clear,
I’ve started studying philosophy at the university just because of him. I’m 50 years old, imagine that!
Thanks for posting this excellent interview!
How amazing and happy see to this ! I used to read his books all the time,
Such a clever person and a profound philosopher! I am thankful that you put this on UA-cam! Thank you!!
Charming and elegant from the very first second! Lord Russell!
Amazing, thank you for posting.
Was very glad to find this. For me personally there were parts of agreement, parts of disagreement, and all of it genuinely interesting.
Thank you for doing what you do. This is important work.
Thank you so much for the uploads.
Thanks for uploading the interview.
listening to someone born in the 1870's is rather intersting
I agree.....to hear what he had to say about Asia exposes his narrow mindeness. Asia eventually adopted western values and we only have to look at the precarious state of the planet to see the results of greed and superiority complex which are a cardinal part of western values
@@abulayla1000 Ridiculous. Racism is an inherent part of Chinese culture that is totally irredeemable. The Chinese oppress anyone that is not Han Chinese, think themselves entitled to rule the world and have similar grievances to Imperial Germany. Russell exposes his aristocratic English bigotry but that does not mean his is an exclusively Western trait.
so that's what makes Bertrand Russell interesting
@Sé Do How so?
@@johntydee6367 Oh really. So why was the one child policy never applied to China’s 55 minorities?
Russell and Chomsky are my favorite intellectuals as well as two of the best people humanity has produced - thanks for uploading to UA-cam.
Such a coincidence! Those two are my favorites too!
Chomsky had shown himself to be backed by agendas.
Chomsky? you are looking up to a genocide denier?
Chompsky was rock solid up until the pandemic. Then he took leave of his senses.
‘’Scientific societies are as yet in their infancy… It is to be expected that advances in physiology and psychology will give governments much more control over individual mentality than they now have even in totalitarian countries. Fitche laid it down that education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished. Diet, injections(vaccines) and injunctions will combine, from very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible...’’ - Bertrand Russell, 1953
He wants to Bring about the New World Order and make the world into 1984. WAKE UP!
He's a satanist which is why he doesn't want you to believe in God or Spirits..

Thanks to you UA-cam for facilitating all these knowledgeable videos for us.. 👌👍🙏🙏🙏
I could listen to and read Bertrand for days on end and never grow bored. What a brilliant mind.
He was an elitist that despised people . Read "Impact of science on society" to see the evil in him.
I disagree, I think a lot in which he describes in it has came to light. In another fifty years it will be even more evident. Like all good philosophers he was ahead of his time as far as thinking outside the box. Most people that go to Cambridge are elitist though. Just like the best thinkers in history are atheists! Best societies are secular!!
@@Daniela-pr7rz false
Religion allow slavery, rape , loot , genocide , terrisom
& it is always against the science and morality Genesis 19:36, NIV: "So both of Lot's daughters became pregnant by their father."
Lot's two daughters had sex with their father on consecutive nights. Acting desperately, but very deliberately, they got him so drunk with wine that he didn't even realize what was happening (Genesis 19:33; 35). Both of Lot's daughters became pregnant through this sexual abuse of their own father.
The various Christian churches fought tooth and nail against the advancement of women, opposing everything from women's right to speak in public, to the use of anesthesia in childbirth (since the bible says women must suffer in childbirth) and woman's suffrage.
New Testament, the bible decrees/order
One bible verse alone, "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" (Exodus 22:18) is responsible for the death of tens of thousands, if not millions, of women. Do women and those who care about them need further evidence of the great harm of Christianity, predicated as it has been on these and similar teachings about women?
The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as his father, in the womb of a virgin, will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter.

Thank you for the upload!
Incredible, thanks @Manufacturing Intellect ! I may not agree with everything but the record is of such a high value for us today.
Wonderful very learnable interview of the legend philosopher.
Wonderful in all respects. His A History of Western Philosophy was the first book in the subject I read back in my teens. I still recommend it.
Thank you for restoring this beautiful and inspiring interview. It’s impressive how well his thoughts/insights still hold up today
Glad to be here and have found this thank you
Pure gold... Please upload rare contents like this. Thanks a lot btw 🙏🏻🙏🏻
Whats up, Manufacturing Intellect. this is a actually superb video. thanks. :)
Thank you for this amazing and precious video!😁
What an amazing channel!! Absolutely soooo happy that i found it
This interview has aged well. Like really really well. In many ways he could have been talking about 2022.
I Know he planned it all its called a plandemic for a reason.

Fascinating to listen to Lord Russell's speech or the way he speaks, we are listening to how people spoke in the early 1800's. Because he was born in 1872 and bought up by his grandparents who must have been 40 -50 years old and they were bought up in the early part of the century. There were no sound recorders then, so this recorded interview is the next best thing.
If his grandfather was born 'in the early years of the French revolution' he'd have been in his late 70s at least during the young Bertrand's formative years. Incredible.
It is not how "people" spoke, it is how aristocrats spoke. If you listen to the Queen's address, she speaks with pretty much the same accent.
The massive majority of people didn't speak like this back then, local dialects were more prominent then than they are now.

I.m impressed and humbled to have such an experience of hearing and watching Bertrand Russell
An amazing interview and a rare insight into a brilliant mind. Thank you for sharing this remarkable glimpse into the past...and into the future!
If you ever want to understand the sheer cyclopean magnitude of the intellect behind that placid façade, I highly recommend obtaining a physical copy of Russell and Whitehead's Principia Mathematica. It's an enormous book filled with page after page of totally inscrutable symbolic logic (made much worse by the bizarre choice to use dots as brackets), painstakingly written out before the computer was a glimmer in Turing's eye. I still don't understand how a human being could have the patience and mental fortitude to produce it.
Well u do know he had a mental breakdown or as he called it exhaustion after finishing writing it lol
Jaime M 😂
"A fourth volume on the foundations of geometry had been planned, but the authors admitted to intellectual exhaustion upon completion of the third." LOL en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Principia_Mathematica#Editions
It's not at all inscrutable. I read it comfortably in college, but admittedly I had the advantage of having been in one of the pilot "mathematics through set theory" high-school programs. (This was an experiment that swept across the English-speaking pedagogy from about 1958 to 1990 and then mostly dumped as a failure. It was a success for me, but only because I was lucky enough to have a brilliant math teacher, the late J. Norman C. Sharp.)
It's an intellectual masterpiece, and his theory of classes will probably survive. For the most part, though, Russell-and-Whitehead has been swept aside by Kurt Gödel. They were one of the peaks in a mountain range. Nobody is interested in that range anymore.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kurt_G%C3%B6del
@@TheDavidlloydjones
I was educated in set and the horrible Matrix theory too... late 60's and early 70's. I found it a complete waste of time, dumped it with great pleasure, and put my head down in applied maths to find something of actual use in the real world, and the halls of Physics. Maths for it's own sake was never a big draw for me. Except, that is, some of the games in the back pages of "scientific american". However, I do appreciate that some aspects of purely theoretical maths have later proved useful to society.
Greatly inspiring interview, I had not studied Bertrand Russells publishings. What comes to mind listening to him: If knowledge does not turn into wisdom, then all knowledge ist to no avail.
Thanks for posting this gem.
Wonderful conversation.
Wow I loved this thanks for posting! Bertrand Russell is next level
I absolutely loved this, thank you so much for the upload :)
Fantastic
This is a real treasure! thanks a lot!
Thank you for posting.
Intellectual giant of a man. Not a lot of his mould around anymore.
I am ecstatic to find this. I love history and understanding another’s view of the world. Nobody knows exactly when events will take place. However, I do believe it is possible to “sense” where a certain trend may take us.
That little village at the beginning of the video is Richmond :) (London) I travel through that bridge every day.
One of the best interviews I have ever watched
Never thought of hearing Russel, cool!
Wow! Love it.. what a great man. Wish we could have more of these style of time capsule videos of great people. They’re amazing. Thank you for uploading 🙌🏼
This is great information! An eye witness to history !
Very excellent interview with great philosopher,really we are fortunate people.
I read one from Russell: ABC of relativity. I liked that very much. I never knew that I would hear him speak until I got hold of this one. 🙏 to the Publisher.
It was a series on the ABC in Australia in the 60’s. I used to sit up a watch it even though I was a school child.
Simple, profound -- always question dogma, look to kindness.
No matter what time of the description of the learning nor the speck of time you represent.... Be thankful ❤️
I could listen to him speak forever
We're watching a man who died in our lifetime whose grandfather met Napoleon. Watching this video is like watching history itself unfolding. Remarkable!
Simply Enlightening talk.
Its not just listening to great talk but meeting with the Enlightened mind, the philosophical mind and lover of exact thinking.
Thanks for uploading this interview… it’s jewel 💎
