What if a demon could teach you philosophy? In today's episode, we delve into the world of Buer, the Demon of Philosophy, as described in the Ars Goetia. Known for his teachings in moral philosophy, natural sciences, and medicine, Buer is more than just a demon - he’s a symbol of humanity’s complex relationship with knowledge.

We'll explore Buer’s historical and symbolic significance, the ethical dilemmas of summoning him, and his surprising relevance in the modern world. From the risks of forbidden knowledge to the moral grey areas of modern technology and medicine, this episode unravels the timeless questions Buer raises about power, wisdom, and responsibility.

Would you summon Buer to gain his wisdom? And what might you be willing to risk in the pursuit of truth? Join us for a journey into philosophy, demonology, and the human condition.
