I’m thinking about 6 sessions of roughly 2 hours. Cost around 160$. Sometime on Thursdays. We would probably start early November.
Now, before opening and publicizing the course, what I’d like to do here is gauge interest, so please, let me know in the comments if you’d be interested. Also, please let me know what kind of time slot would work best for you (including your timezone please). I’m pretty flexible and I’m guessing that evenings would be best for most people, but I don’t have a great idea of the different timezones people are in.

I explore the idea of a continuity of relevance realization in the chain of Being, from probability fields to the Inexhaustible, using Eriugena's doctrine of creation.

54:40 scaling, or what about the bozos at the bus stop?

My last conversation with John: youtube.com/watch?v=DWg8-VxnOog
Don't miss the last 25 minutes, as John makes what is by far the best anti-theist argument I have ever heard (50:30). I believe I will both enjoy and find beneficial wrestling with it in the coming weeks or months.
Suggestions and criticisms are very welcome.
Hope that was useful, and thanks for listening.

Video wrap-up of the first discussion: youtube.com/watch?v=z35umuP1rXk
In this video, I attempt to bridge the gap by calling on Aquinas himself, Bergson, and David Bentley Hart.
In later videos I will take much more time to elaborate on David Bentley Hart's work.
As far as the meaning crisis goes, Vervaeke's position can actually facilitate holding Bergson's by giving it a viable fallback, which, after all, still points towards the cultivation of virtue and wisdom. Thus, the very real existential risk of accepting Bergson's non naturalism can be strongly mitigated.
