I am starting a war on philosophy. Its is an evil thing. It is pernicious to think too much about things, a straight up disease. I want to stamp it out like a cigarette. Philosophy was started so the nerds could get a foot up on the normal people and it worked. Down with this beast called philosophy. Let it burn in flames. The only people that have the time to read this crap are rich boys who don't understand it anyway. Let these chocolate eating, merlot swirling drips keep their packets of bullshit, while I destroy them.

Well that's an interesting philosophy.

Like Epictetus.

perhaps.

Yeah, those rich boys are so dumb. Not like the lower classes, man thats where the thinking is.

You're just taking it too seriously. There's only a handful of people in my school who have heard of Nietszche, and it's one of the best public schools in the nation. Maybe the world. Philosophy isn't that prolific, it isn't a scourge that necessitates expunging. It's a hobby some people enjoy taking up, for one reason or another.

By the way, the nerds have always had a foot up on the other people. In human society, the most intelligent tend to excel, however only they're really that intelligent.

I don't care about any of you, I'm breaking out the tactical nukes. Nietzsche's a dead man. Plato, your next! :p

Plato was cool...yeah i hung out with him...yeah he's a cool dude....always thinking though....

Xenu remember this

With Xenu on my side I cannot be stopped. Begin lanch sequence at 10.

"Early man walked away
As modern man took control
Their minds weren't all the same
To conquer was their goal
So he built his great empire
And he slaughtered his own kind
He died a confused man
Killed himself with his own mind"

-Sublime

People can't stop thinking and philosophising. It's human nature to do it. But the more we philosophize, the more confused we get.
My biggest wish in the world is to be reborn and have a stupid brain that doesn't think or analyze things the way I do.

I agree with the fredX
down with philosophy!!!

thank you for agreeing with me man, let the war proceed. We cannot lose, onward, cease the castle!!!

This minus sarcasm equals some nice humble truth, finally we're getting somewhere.

I agree thoroughly whitewolf.

Oh, really, and how long did it take you to think of this idea?

Would your suggestion be to act stupidly and blindly and just lash out on impulse?

Ahh yes, after all, surely it is those who have failed in life and are impotent to change their conditions are the TRUE maters of the universe.

Nice

philosophy is beautiful
psychology is useless

psychology is useless

Psychology is a usefull tool it is much like a map, there are those of seek to understand the map and those of seek to understand the terrain.

I have allways viewed philosophy as intentional evolution of consciousness.

The First Law of Philosophy: For every philosopher,
there exists an equal and opposite philosopher.

The Second Law of Philosophy: They're both wrong.

Do you know that for certain :)

Descartes walks into a café and sits down ready to order. A waiter comes up to him and asks, "Do you need a menu?" Descartes replies, "I think not," and he disappears!

LOL
Nice!
Solipsistic suicide. :-)

We've got a nice crop of hemlock growing down by the river this year. Anyone want some tea?

I'm about to shit my pants, this thread is so funny.

The First Law of Philosophy: For every philosopher, there exists an equal and opposite philosopher.

How bout this

The First Law of Philosophy: For every philosophic thinker,
there exists an equal and opposite philosophic theoretician.

The Second Law of Philosophy: They're both wrong.

you are now Philosophising a war against philosophy,
'roger red alert!!! theres a traitor in our midst'
its you, you daft fool
