You need to read something because right now as of this minute your tabula rasa in Philosophy is completely blank.
For your information, my tabula rasa has a very nice pot plant standing on it, not that the state of my furniture is any of you business. Philosophy is about thinking, which I prefer to reading. Running off to ask Roger Scruton what he thinks, every time you are looking for an answer, is not really engaging in philosophy.

But you need to learn how to think like a philosopher.
That will make you a better thinker.
Think of Scruton as a modern day Aristotle.
We are very fortunate to have such dedicated philosophers available to us.

I doubt it. It's more likely to make me start thinking like you do.

I'd prefer to think neither of Scruton nor Aristotle.
I think the best thing would be for you to just carry on with your posts and I'll drop by from time to time and tell you when you're making a fool of yourself. That method usually seems to work quite well.
