The best common method of starting out in discussion in the beautiful relentless planet philosophy?

I suggest, as follows, for the better to set a cyclonic (philosophic) dream going: Simply use standard common sense, and, if you like, philosophic charity, to construe the meaning of the things written. Also, when in doubt, and you should be, ask questions in order to conceive the meaning more perfectly. This is the best way to act anyway, since, in philosophy, one ought not to assume to understand what is said.

You've made lots of threads with low effort contentless original posts. I will keep deleting them. I left one locked after I gave the explanation of why they were deleted. This one will be locked and sunk too.
