Under Knox they quickly came to dominate Scotland. A Reindeer75 episode. Elizabeth was obviously favored by god and this gave her an enormous advantage in what was understood to be a religious argument. We look into Calvinist ideas of salvation, what does it mean to be Elect and what were some of the weird things that Jesus said. Harald puts forward a notion that Calvinists bring atheism within the grasp of the mediocre, though Reindeer75 disputes the noti...

Grand Strategy in Elizabeth’s war with Spain. The Hawkins strategy turns out to be a winner. Spain has two more Armadas to throw at England.

We look at the factors that drove France to join the American Revolution despite the obvious ideological problems with a divine right monarchy supporting a revolution. For France this was an opportunistic war, with the seemingly perfect chance to humiliate the ancestral enemy. And as Louis XIV put it, the wars were all about who could control the Indes trade.

Completing our Adam Smith arc with the end of the ideology of Calvinism. Its replacement with the idea that God is good and the happiness of mankind is God’s purpose, allowed Hume and Smith to encode the principles of Christian love into a Newtonian framework. Safely encased in a Newtonian system, Smith’s ideas could survive the rise of atheism. This is the intellectual end point of leaving medieval morality behind.Reason was the tool that created Calvinism, that demanded predestination. The elevatio...

Calvinism undermines itself by elevating human reason as the tool for analysis and understanding of God above feeling and love and human action. We explore Calvinist doctrines in some detail. Logically they are ironclad and that is their undoing.With Camie we once again bring up the tension between Acts 5:29 and Romans 13:1. Once rulers are Christian, once the society is Christian, how does the submissions to higher authority work again? Aren’t we supposed to be brothers? Can’t we move into that stage now

Adam Smith’s systematic approach made reality tractable. This provided enlightenment thinkers with a framework with which to analyze government policy. And they loved it! He launched clear and specific attacks on common government policy, the mercantile system. Most of these abuses, based on medieval modes of thought were weakly followed in England, but were still very common in the rest of Europe.We spend some time on how the moral analysis of economic action is usually incoherent, and how moral intuit...

Smith describes a Newtonian system of non violent market competition operating through the price mechanism which can generate a life for the working poor that is many steps up from the usual run of human misery that everywhere else prevails.

This episode goes into how market competition is a grand form of mutual cooperation leading to the best solution to the Great Coordination problem, at...

Funny you should ask, because Adam Smith desperately wanted this improvement for his native Scotland. Getting it would be like a miracle.

And one day, in France he started a book, An Inquiry into The Nature and Causes of the Wealth of Nations.We get as far...

Private Vices are public virtues, so says Mandeville in the Fable of the Bees. No, David Hume argues, the frame is wrong. Strong boundaries of vice and virtue cannot be drawn in consumer behavior. This is our introduction to the problem of leaving medieval morality behind us. The Church did not place the economic advancement of the poor high up the list of concerns and even saw it as a great danger. How did we ever escape this kind of thinking?

We go through the history of the Glorious Revolution of 1688. Marlborough defects to William of Orange.It’s a long episode because we spend time with the philosophical question of the Fool.

The English Civil War created conditions that made...

The first of a 3 episode arc on the Agricultural Revolution. Yes, this is the Jethro Tull episode. The focus is on engineering and the early inventions often associated with the Agricultural Revolution – the wrong ones.
