he's right as no one can tell you except your own mind coupled with instinct.

You do not need to be a philosopher to know that all religions are crap in all senses of life . Philosophy is to search for the truth and religions have no truth in them .

life: purposed to continue
choices/actions to measure:
good: supports life to continue
bad: loss to the common
do those work?

that's not fair.....
all ritual crap......... fibs, beliefs and adherances to magical BS.... i can see that......
but not all the material information is bad............. for example; if the serpant said eve would not die by eating the fruit and we all here, then we know that talking snakes don't fib
that's a good lesson... if you hear a serpant speak, maybe listen; at least that one don't lie
while we all know manking does
Philosophy is to search for the truth and religions have no truth in them .
come on................
adam gave up a rib to make eve
kind of like the same thing all cell division does......
and we all know when someone says; 'praise the name of jesus' you bow your head and walk the utter way; real fast....
there are lots of lesson's we can learn from the religious
and often it is exactly what not to be

yes
now the question i ask myself everyday; how to convey them to the children in words that will combine rather than tear down?
eg.... that frame above combined to the logic of life, the sciences and religions is what i have personally handed out across this country
let's hope the 'truth' lives all by itself
that is unless you wish to water it (do good by choice; contributing to the life)
who knows, if you build a nice chain to that 'good', you might live longer in that gift.
didn't i already ask if you wanted to be the "almighty salami"?

not hard really , I'm sure you'll figure it out
eg.... that frame above combined to the logic of life, the sciences and religions is what i have personally handed out across this country

Reason rather than logic is the key
you will find that childern are more flexible in the understanding of the Universe and the way it really is than are adults
lets hope , but that is up to you and your approach and your ability to communicate so , with adjustments , if the populace can handle it , the real truth

Reason rather than logic is the key reason to me means i must have causality
logic on the other hand is applying 'common sense' (personal experiences; reasoned to application; causally observed)
please correct me if i am wrong; (STILL IN SCHOOL)
you will find that childern are more flexible in the understanding of the Universe and the way it really is than are adults thank god for the kids (pardon the pun), our future!

don't go putting that on my shoulders..... i did/doing my part
at this point, it seems the best i can do is rattle cages and let the kids have a chance to see points of view they 'ain't gonna get from the complacent' (eg..................... life: kicks the pants out of entropy (send the 2nd into the 'pirates code' as a sort of 'guideline')
i am planting my seeds, the rest is on 'YOU' or that 'we the people' concept (you don't want the job, nor do i; maybe we can find a pigeon and brand his head with knowledge and let the world tear him apart)
that part sucks but if you want someone to wash your feet before the journey; i can do that (i can still fog a mirror)

the difference between Reason and logic is that , reason brings in knowledge , it gathers knowledge to form a conclusion
logic is the consequence of the conclusion of the reasoning

Philosophy is not simply what you choose to think, act & become. The unexamined life contains no philosophy. Xenophobia is not philosophy. Faith is not philosophy. Herd mentality conformism is not philosophy. The unthinking mob has no philosophy. Fear is not philosophy. Incoherent unsupported claims do not come from philosophy. Hate is not philosophy. Kneejerk reactions from festering old wounds are not philosophy.

thanks for the additional 'thinking' material.

I've always objected to the colloquial use of the term "philosophy" of recent times. Philosophy has come to mean one's "take" or one's perspective on life or a particular matter. Such "takes" are seldom informed, systematic, or critical in any substantive sense and the spirit of "inquiry" is often conspicuously absent.
Science is not philosophy. Religion is not philosophy. Process and pursuit are not philosophy. Science concerns itself with the methods of acquiring knowledge, whereas epistemology concerns itself with the nature of knowledge. Religion is nearly impossible to define but can be regarded as a system of beliefs, whereas philosophy explores and questions the nature of and the notion of belief. And process and pursuit can be philosophy if and only if the subject of the pursuit or the process is an inquiry into knowledge, existence, belief, language, etc.

Completely correct. It's unfortunate that the term has somehow been shoved into a vulgar use. What you point out here is of the utmost concern. The clarification of thoughts cannot occur when the means whereby we elucidate our thoughts are themselves muddled.

This is a good universal law of philosophy.

i agree
it is why i am so tough on the 2LoT because that ideology has ruined much of applicable comprehension; hence a paradigm shift is imminent

People use words incorrectly & over time incorrect definitions become accepted as correct. People make assumptions about what someone means which do not necessarily fit with the correct definitions resulting in cacophonous connotations.
There seems to be little anyone is willing and/or able to do about it.

kind of like what you did in http://www.sciforums.com/showthread.php?t=94753&page=6
posts 107 and 109 (useless babble)
i call it useless ranting by the ignorant (not equiped to articulate but rant just the same)
to be willing to 'do something about it' takes the commitment from one person at a time (be honest or shut up)

Philosophy of life:
To me, I believe it starts by freeing your own mind. Questioning all that makes us who we are. Understanding that everything about us is learned through our life experiences and how we perceive those experiences. Also understanding that our experiences are situational and that if we were to experience different situations, our reality, truth, values, beliefs, etc... all would be different. No ones truth is the same, because we all perceive things differently. I think freeing ones mind, and almost 'waking up' to so much brainwashing is an important factor in the philosophy of life.
After realizing all the above, that's where I start to dream of unity. But my dream is still a ways off, so I won't go to deep into unity yet other then to say we all set personal goals, but we rarely dream for the whole world.

Science is not philosophy.
Science = Natural Philosophy.
The clarification of thoughts cannot occur when the means whereby we elucidate our thoughts are themselves muddled.
Difficult is not impossible. Luckily it is not an all or nothing situation. One can engage in a process of refinement, error correction and verification, like say the Buddhists engage in or science engages in...

Science = Natural Philosophy.
that is cool to read
so i guess when science meets up with defining nature (life) then each can know the philosophy has corrected itself.
