Daily reminder to all Spinozists that this feminine weasel of a philosopher you hold so dear was utterly destroyed by Hume and Kant and his entire thought is just a cheap ripoff of Maimonides and Daud. Further Spinoza was too blind to see the truth that Plotinus and Damascius already laid a thousand years before him.

Read his post again. Not one point was made. He agrues the way all unintelligent people who stumble into philosophy "fight": by mentioning names. Not arguments, not parts of literature that they have understood, but names. Not even the names of books. This is common from those who did not have the brainpower to understand the work of the man who they were reading, and so all they can do is regurgitate the name of the author and hope that tricks others.

So Plotinus and Damascius lay the truth which is then utterly destroyed by Hume and Kant?

>this amount of cope
So why don't you mention books, names of books or whatever the fuck you think substantiates an argument?

??? What a strange post.
He said that you were writing in an unintelligent style (and insinuated that this meant you are also unintelligent, which this post would confirm but I think this is bait). And he actually did exactly what you asked him to do in the post you're replying to without even needing to quote someone. Astonishing.

All German Idealists secretly read Spinoza

He was too based, he’s caused more seething from Christians and Jews than anybody else to the point where most philosophers had to ignore him or use empty rhetoric to pretend he didn’t preemptively BTFO them.
>>15063800
This is also very true, Ethica is great but no doubt it’s the most autistic thing I’ve ever read
>>15063912
He believed that it was impossible to be rational and not believe in God.

Deleuze said that Spinoza was the Prince of Philosophy, which implies many things. Most important of all that the king has yet to be found. Spinoza is a princely spirit, going head first into chaos and doing battle against god itself. The heir to philosophy has to fight for his crown. Spinoza embraced the aristocratic and rejected the mob mentality.

The Lords of the ma'amad, having long known of the evil opinions and acts of Baruch de Espinoza, have endeavoured by various means and promises, to turn him from his evil ways. But having failed to make him mend his wicked ways, and, on the contrary, daily receiving more and more serious information about the abominable heresies which he practised and taught and about his monstrous deeds, and having for this numerous trustworthy witnesses who have deposed and borne witness to this effect in the presence of the said Espinoza, they became convinced of the truth of the matter; and after all of this has been investigated in the presence of the honourable chachamin [sages], they have decided, with their consent, that the said Espinoza should be excommunicated and expelled from the people of Israel. By the decree of the angels, and by the command of the holy men, we excommunicate, expel, curse and damn Baruch de Espinoza, with the consent of God, Blessed be He, and with the consent of all the Holy Congregation, in front of these holy Scrolls with the six-hundred-and-thirteen precepts which are written therein, with the excommunication with which Joshua banned Jericho,[50] with the curse with which Elisha cursed the boys[51] and with all the curses which are written in the Book of the Law. Cursed be he by day and cursed be he by night; cursed be he when he lies down, and cursed be he when he rises up; cursed be he when he goes out, and cursed be he when he comes in. The Lord will not spare him; the anger and wrath of the Lord will rage against this man, and bring upon him all the curses which are written in this book, and the Lord will blot out his name from under heaven, and the Lord will separate him to his injury from all the tribes of Israel with all the curses of the covenant, which are written in the Book of the Law. But you who cleave unto the Lord God are all alive this day. We order that no one should communicate with him orally or in writing, or show him any favour, or stay with him under the same roof, or within four ells of him, or read anything composed or written by him.
