Philosophy Now Forum

1) I found this page via google looking for a place to spawn my thoughts without next-persons look of stupor
2) I write philosophy
3) I've loved philosophy from the first time I saw the famous movie "Sophie's World" (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sophie%27s_World). A movie I think there isn't a single philosophy-lover who can't help but love, although that's just a way of saying that if you're a kid: it rocks
4) I make philosophical ideas (not always new but I like to call it "thought engineering", or something a little less associating to Matrix-like paranoia; "idea engineering", which simply means engineering an idea out of "spare parts" which are those things you experience in life, be it words, events or other ideas)
5) I'm born 1992 and have dedicated most of my life to hardcore philosophizing and fantasy-immersions (including writing some fantasy, some of which I'm quite proud of)
6) the end...

I didn't know Sophie's World was a film.

Neither did I, but the book by Jostein Gaarder is a good introduction to philosophy.

actually you're right, I forgot the movie adaptation was limited, but quite famous in Norway if it matters. Never actually read the book though, since I've seen the movie, and no idea if I'm missing out on something, but usually you miss out on something just watching the movie (i.e. Harry Potter series, Lord of the Ring series, etc.).
