In my experience, I think there's a tendency for neophytes of philosophy to often become overly enamored with the subject, which is not necessarily a bad thing as it lends to the intensity of one's study of it.

I'm certainly not an expert on philosophy but I've studied a fair bit of it and pondered it a great deal throughout my life. I'm always fascinated by how much I've forgotten of what I learned and of how little real importance philosophy ultimately is compared to other more pragmatic fields of knowledge (such as agriculture for a very stark example). It always astounds me how little real advantage the study of philosophy seems to have afforded me. I mean, I still make stupid mistakes. I still suffer from things like sadness or anxiety as much as anyone else (if not more so in some cases). And there are people out there who seem to be very well ordered mentally who haven't studied a lick of formal philosophy. I've met a few such people in my life and it always impresses me.
You are a moron.

Mine was one of the few posts that weren't insulting you and yet you chose to fire back an ad hominem at me. Why? It sounds to me like you might be one of those neophytes you talk about who thinks he's a "king" just because he's read some philosophy. No?

Please don't lash out. The way you are is not my doing. Besides, maybe morons are superior. If I pointed out that someone had red hair in a country with a ptejuidece against red hair, they might think themselves personally insulted.

'Intellectual slavery' you do talk a load of old bollocks don't you. Can I assume you are not a graduate of anything?

To claim some kind of intellectual superiority upon a Philosophy forum when you can't use a spell-checker or even spell the words correctly in the first place is just laughable.

You are very thoughtless. And truly were prepared for a life of intelectual servility in your youth. Now, for decades you will go on armed with the same mechanical habits. Very boring. Seek human education, rigid one.

You can't even spell "prejudice" correctly and you're calling me a "moron?" You shouldn't even need spell check for a word that easy!!

Do you mean ethically or epistemologically? If the former then please explain how and I'll consider a sincere apology but if the latter then I'd need to understand what you mean by a thought before I could consider a reply.
And truly were prepared for a life of intelectual servility in your youth. ...
You really need to use that spell checker before you talk about others being intellectual but as to my youth I was too busy out working and farting about to be bothered with academia and a higher education, it wasn't until later that I decided to study and then only because there was a recession and you needed a degree for even average jobs.
Now, for decades you will go on armed with the same mechanical habits. ...
I doubt I'll make one decade let alone two given the life I've led but here's hoping and no idea what a 'mechanical habit' is other than autonomous skills?
Very boring. Seek human education, rigid one.
So care to say what a "human education" entails? As it obviously doesn't include the basics of Reading, Righting and Rithmatic.
