Think like a Stoic: Ancient Wisdom for Today's World Episode 4, How Stoics Understand Providence Episode 4, How Stoics Understand Providence.

Streaming video - 2021

Stoics's thoughts on providence were much different than Christians would later think of it. Consider three interrelated notions of Stoic thinking that constitute three important aspects of their metaphysics: materialism, cause-effect, and determinism. In the process, you'll gain a new perspective on an old chestnut in metaphysics and moral philosophy: the problem of free will.
