Ciência e Liberdade

 

Debate: 50 ︎ 25 de abril Ciência e Liberdade A História de Portugal demonstra de forma exemplar a interdependência entre liberdade e conhecimento. Os Descobrimentos Portugueses foram impulsionados por um espírito de exploração e inovação científica, mas também pela busca por novos mercados e oportunidades de expansão imperial. A sombra da Inquisição e do regime autoritário do Estado Novo representaram um período de obscurantismo e repressão, que só foi terminado com a Revolução dos Cravos, em 1974. Desde então, Portugal tem abraçado a democracia e o conhecimento como pilares fundamentais da sua sociedade. No entanto, os desafios do século XXI exigem que continuemos a defender o espírito de cepticismo científico e tolerância, no debate público. É fundamental encontrarmos um equilíbrio entre o progresso científico e as preocupações da justiça social e da sustentabilidade ambiental. Nos 50 anos do 25 de Abril, o Planetário do Porto – CCV promove um debate com a certeza de uma conversa enriquecedora e profícua, com as contribuições sobre a importância da liberdade e do conhecimento para o desenvolvimento cultural da sociedade. Para este debate sobre Ciência e Liberdade, procuramos um sociólogo e político para dissecar as bases da nossa democracia, um jornalista e editor de uma revista de história, um físico e cientista para iluminar como podemos moldar o nosso futuro através do conhecimento e uma agente e promotora da cultura científica e tecnológica para pintar uma visão do investimento em conhecimento que se quer para Portugal. Para reunir e explorar a dança intrincada destas ideias sobre ciência e liberdade, uma reconhecida jornalista. João Teixeira Lopes Sociólogo, Prof. Catedrático da Faculdade de Letras da U.

Porto Rosalia Vargas Presidente da Agência Nacional para a Cultura Científica e Tecnológica – Ciência Viva Sandra Sousa moderação Jornalista, RTP — Auditório do Planetário do Porto – CCV Quarta-feira, 24 de Abril de 2024, às 18:30 Entrada livre, apenas sujeita à lotação máxima. Ciência e liberdade estão há muito entrelaçados, mas a sua relação ressoa com particular intensidade em Portugal. Este debate tem como mote de conversa o livro, "A Ciência da Liberdade – Democracia, Razão e as Leis da Natureza", de Timothy Ferris que argumenta que a ciência alimenta os ideais da democracia e serve como modelo para um discurso político racional. No entanto, o caminho para a liberdade e o conhecimento raramente é suave. Numa época de incertezas e desafios globais, uma conversa em torno da relação entre a Ciência e Liberdade torna-se cada vez mais crucial. "Ciência e Liberdade – Democracia, razão e leis da natureza" Timothy Ferris (USA, 2010) (PT, GRADIVA, 2013) A Editora Gradiva apoia este debate com a presença e venda do livro.

On the Way: the 3 stages of forgiveness

 

On the Way: the 3 stages of forgiveness   Hope you are well friend! Here are 3 thoughts, 2 quotes, and 1 question to explore this week.   3 Thoughts From Me   I. Imagine you are walking in the countryside when you come across an electric fence. Your friend tells you it is off. So you put your hand on it.   However it electrocutes you ️.   Instead of letting go, you hold on, your hair stands on end like a mad scientist, you are writhing in pain, you slowly turn to look at your friend and hiss “look what you’ve done to me!"   II. Most of the pain we experience arises from our resistance to how the world is: "He shouldn't have treated me like that!".   Even when we have the freedom to move on, our resentment, our resistance traps us in pain.   “Resentment is like drinking rat poison and expecting the rat to die."   III. If you want true freedom, it is not found in a state of the world, it is found in the state of your heart-mind.   Through truly forgiving others, through the total acceptance of what is, a great burden is lifted from you. YOU are forgiven.

2 Quotes From Others   I. 'Saint Francis says, "it is by forgiving that we are forgiven". There is a direct connection between the clemency we express and the world that we experience. Freedom has a clause: it is forgiveness. Or as Gandhi would have it, "Be the change you want to see in the world". If we want forgiveness, we must forgive.' – Russell Brand   II. 'An eye for an eye makes the whole world blind.'   – Jesus   Do the Dao Now   Here are the 3 Stages of forgiveness: Build compassion through understanding the person (or thing) Through true understanding, the healing power of compassion naturally transforms resentment, you let it go. You find freedom (you yourself are forgiven)   Understanding, becoming trauma sensitive, seeing complexity, is at the core of forgiveness. If you are finding it hard to let go of resentment, have you built your understanding?
