Continuing education is large part of my life regardless of the pandemic. My approach to Greek Philosophy is similar to my view of the scripture of different religions and history.

I consider the study and contemplation of Greek Philosophy from the following perspectives. (1) As Greek philosophy in the context of the culture and history of the time. In other words Greek philosophy as Greek Philosophy. (2) As comparative literature particularly in ancient literature, such as the influence on the Bible as literature. (4) From the traditional Christian perspective in the use of philosophy and logic, ie Hillsdale College perspective.. (5) Jewish perspective in the context of history and the more pragmatic contemporary Judaism, in the development of Midrash. (6) From the Islamic perspective similar to the Christian perspective. (7) From the perspective of the contemporary schools of philosophy.

I understand that, though I do not agree with their view of the Greek philosophers centering on Plato and Aristotle, but I do study all sides, and in general I find their courses very helpful in reviewing philosophy and history, and understanding of the conservative Christian perspective.
