New Forum: Philosophy

[Erwin]

Philosophy The forum for the discussion and debate of general philosophy & epistemology

A new Open to All Members Section forum in the Discussion & Debate category.

This is a new forum SPLIT from Philosophy & Morality. This is because Philosophy is very distinct and different to the issue of Morality and Ethics.

Morality is now only for Ethics & Morality issues, which also allows Rule 4.2 controversial topics. This new forum is not the place for such topics.

W00tage!

At last we can discuss philosophy without having to scroll through 12 pages of abortion/gay rights debates

I would like to offer appreciation to Erwin and any other staff who collaborated on this decision. I was not sure at first if a forum split was overly important, but I am glad to see my suggestion was worthwhile.

Yes. Thank God for that. Thanks to Erwin too.

 

[large fry please.]

Yes. Thank God for that. Thanks to Erwin too.

No, thank Erwin for that only! Unless of course you suspect God {with his busy schedule would see fit to inspire Erwin}

I can't help but remember that episode of Family Guy:

Peter: "Oh, thank you, Jesus!"
Jesus: "No, it wasn't me, it wa-"
Vishnu: "No, don't worry about it, I'm used to it by now."

Thank you Erwin.

I wasn't aware there was a philosophy section hidden behind all the abortion/homosexuality threads.

It was shiva he was talking to, not vishnu. Seriously. Get your familyguyisms right.

Ahhh, ATHF is better, anyway.

I concur completely on this account. Perhaps if they would ever get around to making a second season, the venture brothers might start giving them botrh a run for their money. But comparing any show to athf is like comparing a gimp to a marathon runner.

Not quite, but Strangers with Candy is (was).

Philosophy is the study of general problems concerning matters such as existence, knowledge, truth, beauty, justice, validity, mind, and language. Philosophy is distinguished from other ways of addressing these questions (such as mysticism or mythology) by its critical, generally systematic approach and its reliance on reasoned argument. The word philosophy is of Ancient Greek origin: φιλοσοφία (philosophía), meaning "love of wisdom."
