In France the religious wars between the Catholics and Calvinists, the controversies that were waged by the Jansenists and Gallicans, the extravagances of the Convulsionnaires , the flagrant immorality of the court during the rule of the Duke of Orleans and of Louis XV., and the enslavement of the Church, leading as it did to a decline of zeal and learning amongst the higher clergy, tended inevitably to foster religious indifference amongst the masses. In the higher circles of society Rationalism was looked upon as a sign of good breeding, while those who held fast by their dogmatic beliefs were regarded as vulgar and unprogressive. Leading society ladies such as Ninon de Lenclos (1615-1706) gathered around them groups of learned admirers, who under the guise of zeal for the triumph of literary and artistic ideals sought to popularise everything that was obscene and irreligious. Amongst some of the principal writers who contributed largely to the success of the anti-Christian campaign in France might be mentioned Peter Bayle (1647-1706), whose Dictionnaire historique et critique Encyclopedie , as he termed Christianity, and whose writings had done so much to accomplish that result in the land of his birth. The reception given to Voltaire in Paris affords the most striking proof of the religious and moral corruption of all classes in France at this period. Jean-Jacques Rousseau was born at Geneva and reared as a Calvinist. Later on he embraced the Catholic religion, from which he relapsed once more into Calvinism, if indeed in his later years he was troubled by any dogmatic beliefs. His private life was in perfect harmony with the moral tone of most of his works. He had neither the wit nor the literary genius of Voltaire, but in many respects his works, especially

Extractions: A Contrarian's Dictionary: 2000 Damnable Definitions For The Year 2000 by Murray L. Bob and Wilhelm Busch A 200 page dictionary containing 2,000 definitions for contrarians, sceptics and realists. The viewpoint is iconoclastic and the style is satiric. The goal is to "define" terms, names, and euphemisms in an amusing, pithy way. Many of the entries are topical and quotable. All (with the exception, perhaps, of half-a-dozen) are original. Most of the entries are one-, two-, and three-liners, although a few are longer. Inspired by Ambrose Bierce's classic, "Devil's Dictionary," this is a book that will make the reader think - and smile. Topics covered include: politics, economics, religion, psychology, film, the theater, literature, philosophy, New Age, management, media, personalities, and entertainment. Many of the definitions are accompanied by marvelous illustrations by the greatest cartoonist- caricaturist who ever lived, Wilhelm Busch.

Extractions: 1. Neopositivism: Linguistic Philosophy and Critical Rationalism (Chapter Two, part 1 of Crisis Consciousness in Contemporary Philosophy by András Gedö The crises of the schools and the corresponding changes in the prevailing trends partly obscured and partly brought out the second, deeper level of crisis, that hidden in the fundamental conceptions of the main currents of late-bourgeois philosophy itself, in the continuity and turns of its history. Changes in form give the appearance of completely new ideas, opposed to the schools in crisis, and remain dissociated from the main directions (if the crises of the schools threaten to compromise them), or to renew and return them to their original, authentic content (if the crises could be more or less separated from the fate of those main currents). Such changes, nonetheless, show up the deeper level of crisis insofar as the crisis situations in the individual schools give some insight into the content of the main currents and make possible the realization that the philosophical crisis is more profound than it originally seemed. The third level of this crisis lies in the opposition and complementarity of positivism and life philosophy (Lebensphilosophie) It is an unavoidable antinomy of positivist "philosophies of science" that they are founded on some aspects arising out the dialectics of scientific reflection, while at the same time denying the idea of reflection and dialectics. Philosophically, they have no comprehension of dialectics in scientific reflection, which finally proves a trap for the positivist "philosophies of

Extractions: Randianism , who also called her philosophy Objectivism (with a capital 'O'). In addition to the standard objectivist idea that reality is what it is despite any emotions and beliefs one might hold to the contrary, Rand further specified the objective in her philosophy and especially in her epistemology by drawing a contrast between the intrinsic, the subjective, and the objective. Intrinsicism holds that abstractions such as truth and good and beauty exist in reality, utterly divorced from human activity and evaluation; we discover what is true or good or beautiful by means of direct intuition or non-rational insight regarding these instrinsic abstractions. Subjectivism relativism individualism with naturalism . [References from objectivism Rationalism scholasticism , their arguments often showed little improvement over those of their opposition. For example, Descartes' defense of science consisted of a dualism from which philosophy is still recovering, and his arguments for dualism were models of rationalism: technical, deductive, and extremely abstract. Spinoza's Ethics (which often seems to have little to do with ethics) is the high-point of rationalism in philosophy: it is totally deductive and modeled on the geometric system of Euclid's Elements. Rationalism, in its deductive and abstract way of reasoning, tends to prefer the "harder" branches of philosophy (such as epistemology) almost totally ignores ethical and political concerns. The word rationalism is often used to refer to such an overly deductive way of thinking and to the molding of reality to fit one's theoretical understanding, but this is more of a psychological characterization than a philosophical definition. Sometimes, especially outside of philosophy proper, rationalism is still used in its basic sense of respect for reason or to refer to the idea that reason should play a large role in human life (in contrast, say, to

This is valid for every group of people. Within these values every one has made an ordination.

Extractions: The Enlightenment Dr. C. George Boeree The 1600's were among the most exciting times for philosophy since ancient Athens. Although the power of religion was still immense, we begin to see pockets of tolerance in different places and at different times, where a great mind could really fly. England was fairly tolerant, if only because of its diversity. Holland was the best place to be. A small country fighting off attacks, military and economic, from every side, needed all the support it could get, whatever your religion, denomination, or even heresy. The central issues were the same as those of the ancient Greeks: What is the world made of? How do we know anything for certain? What is the difference between good and evil? But they are now informed with centuries of science, literature, history, multicultural experiences, and, of course, written philosophy. Perhaps we have to admit that the modern philosophers are only elaborating on the ancient Greeks, but what elaboration! Was Rembrandt only doodling? I will approach this era philosopher-by-philosopher, showing, I hope, the "battles" between materialism (e.g. Hobbes) and idealism (Berkeley), between empiricism (Locke) and rationalism (Spinoza), and between faith (Leibniz) and atheism (Bayle).

Extractions: By Stephen Thornton July 28, 1902 - September 17, 1994. Austrian-born, British thinker, widely viewed as one of the twentieth century's greatest philosophers of science. He was also a social and political philosopher of considerable stature, a staunch defender of liberal democracy and the principles of social criticism upon which it is based, and an implacable opponent of authoritarianism. He is best known for his repudiation of the classical observationalist-inductivist account of science, his espousal of falsifiability as a criterion of demarcation between science and non-science, and his defence of the 'Open Society'. Born in Vienna in 1902 to middle-class parents of Jewish origins, Karl Popper was educated at the University of Vienna. He took a Ph.D. in philosophy in 1928, and taught in secondary school from 1930-1936. In 1937, concerns about the growth of Nazism led him to emigrate to New Zealand, where he became lecturer in philosophy at Canterbury University College, Christchurch. In 1946, he moved to England to become reader in logic and scientific method at the London School of Economics, where he was appointed professor in 1949. He was knighted in 1965, and was elected Fellow of the Royal Society in 1976. He retired from academic life in 1969, though he remained intellectually active until his death in 1994.

As long as we had at the back of our minds the idea of an independent reality to pull thought in the right direction, Feyerabends insistence on the inexhaustible diversity of possible standards seemed merely provocative. But without such a reality the onus of argument has shifted. Little as we may like it, Feyerabend is in the driving seat. He has actually done the historical work to show that sane men with good ideas, both within Western science and without, have hewn all kinds of different intellectual values. After Feyerabend, simply gesturing in the direction of some supposed common intellectual commitment is no longer going to hold relativism at bay. Indeed Fayerband has made it very difficult to see how we can continue to believe in the one true theoretical way.The Times Literary Supplement
