Welcome to Unending Process - the evolutionary thinking tank....podcast.
This is a continuation of the Permanent Evolution and Sympathetic People podcasts.
This week Johanahan and Tim discuss education (in part 1) and evolutionary thinking (part 2). Part 2 is much longer, but contains all the juicy evolutionary pontificating, so don't hesitate to skip to it if that's your bag!
In part 1, we talk about some of the problems with university education, including the importance of being challenged and mentoring.
In part 2, we talk about the origins of evolutionary thinking in the ancient world, and then take a random walk across the philosophical landscape, touching on the mind, Buddhism, ethics and a bunch of other stuff....
Thanks for listening - enjoy, share, comment, criticise!

Episode 14 of the Sympathetic People Podcast. This week (for a dramatic change of pace) we're talking about evolution. Is evolution just some theory in biology, or is the actual structure of reality evolutionary? Is this just some esoteric bullshit that philosophers care about, or does it actually matter for the lives of normal people?
Yes (we claim), reality is intrinsically evolutionary. Yes (we claim), this matters for you (and you, and you, and you). An understanding of some of the core principles of evolution that have shaped our existence, can help us make sense of our place in society and in the universe as a whole. Humans have been trying to understand this stuff as long as they have been humans. Mythology, religion and science are all part of the same great endeavour - our attempt to understand our situation.
Not only are all these explanatory systems branches of the same cultural evolutionary tree, the deepest principle they all reveal is the process in which order evolves from chaos. So check it out!
We love you. After all we're all in this together as interdependent evolutionary phenomena!
