Philosophy Now Forum

Thank you for allowing me to become a member. I have loved Philosophy for at least fifty years. I am convinced and persuaded without a doubt that philosophy is ones opinion of what they think wisdom is. Philosophy does not judge any personal wisdom from it's creators, but allows each philosopher to opinionate the thoughts to others without judging others. Thoughts please. Paul

If only people would ignore yours, your mum's chastisement would of succeeded at last.

Welcome to the clown house James, some people imagine they are big and clever, some people have a lot to learn amongst the 7 billion people on Earth. Let's hope.

That one word is {opinion). Everyone has "their own interpretion of what they interpret what the word philosophy means and "the love of wisdom". Your wisdom might not be my wisdom and vice versa. They say a bug has many eyes and sees multiple pictures of what they are looking at. So are philosophers. Thoughts? Paul

I do actually agree, for the most part, that many of the different philosopher's ideas are true, in that they can be either similar to each other, or even complimentary to each other despite being a bit divergent (one example would be that of the rational and empirical division). Life is infinite and complex, and so ideas should be treated as such as they are picked apart from this Universal Object that we all observe.

What I do know about those right off the bat is that they probably are related to mind control and research on consciousness. It would be cool actually to change the channel from the TV with your mind, but then again we do have to think of the possible negative consequences (such as government and other nefarious people getting control over it). My view is that everything has a good side and a bad side to it; it's all about intent.
