"#JennaWeissmanJoselit was looking for a project that wasn’t so “heavily freighted” after her #book on the #American “embrace” of the #TenCommandments came out in 2017. “Out of the blue,” an editor at the #Jewish Lives #biography series, a #Yale #University Press and #LeonDBlack Foundation project, asked her to #write a book about #Rabbi #MordecaiKaplan, founder of #Reconstructionist #Judaism.

    “Without missing a beat and without thinking what this entailed, I said, ‘Yes, yes. Of course, of course,’” the Charles E. Smith #professor of #Judaicstudies and of #history at #GeorgeWashingtonUniversity told JNS.

    She didn’t question why she was chosen. “I’m not the obvious person. I’m not an intellectual #historian,” #WeissmanJoselit said. “I don’t swim in those high-minded #philosophical, #theological waters.”

    #SOA replaced us.
    #NoCode replaced us.
    #Cloud replaced us.
    #DevOps replaced us.
    …yet here we are!

    Bummed that I can't quote this, as I wanted to contribute.

    Agree. 💯

    And maybe there's another point here, that religious folk want these benefits to ONLY come from religion so they'll block the work to provide these to everyone. "Social policies don't work!" "Non-profits can do that!"

    But do they? Are they actually effective at providing the services? Or do they function as marketing with a small side-benefit?

  14. What is a #Buddha? In #Buddhism, a Buddha is not a #god or #prophet, but a fully #awakened human being who realizes #reality as it is (#tathata) and guides others to #liberation. This concept stands out for its emphasis on human potential, #ethical clarity, and transformative #wisdom (#prajna). In this post, we explore the #philosophical and #historical dimensions of "Buddha" and "Buddhahood":

  16. “Free Willy - Call of freedom for the #free #will

    In this essay, I deal firstly with “the #philosophical #problem of #freedom of will”, then with the #empirical attacks on freedom of will” and finally with the ‘latest #results of #cognitive #neuroscience’ of #self-control. The whole thing is then rounded off with “proposals for overcoming the #determinism-freedom-of-will #dualism.
