What to do when the Q&A after a talk just gets too annoying:

"And once in Elis during some talks, #Pyrrho was so worn-out by the inquirers, that he stripped and swam across the Alpheus."

The appendix to Part I of #Spinoza's Ethics constitutes one of the most concerted arguments against #teleology in nature that I've found before #Darwin.

The other major one I have looked at is dependent origination in #buddhism which I have written about here https://bit.ly/3glD7bD

Do you know any others in #philosophy or elsewhere?

I'm aware I need to look more into #Hume #Bacon #Lucretius and #Pyrrho and I'm currently deep in #Nietzsche

Anyone have a view on Richard Bett vs Christopher Beckwith? They seem to have some tension (reading Beckwith's Greek Buddha and Bett's Cambridge Guide to Ancient Scepticism)
