Sometimes I study just because I want to learn about the subject.
July 15, 2019 at 22:25
I see it as both you study it and it can be a personal path. Sometimes I study something and it becomes part of my personal path.

The new age has many belief systems. It is very eclectic.
July 15, 2019 at 21:01
Yes neo pagan counts as new age. So does divination and the new thought movement like science of mind. Positive affirmations and meditation is a examp...

That's ok it is not right for everyone. We study what is right for us as individuals

I wish I could define myself on a singular path, but I am not wired that way. I admire those people who can follow a single path.

I also have a interest in new age philosophy. I am a eclectic type of person.
July 08, 2019 at 19:48
The two separate subject matters interest me. The philosophy of each one is different.
July 08, 2019 at 19:46
Michael Huemar is a professor of this philosophy.

Intuitionalism is the theory that that there are objective moral truths and that human beings can find them by using their minds.
July 08, 2019 at 17:49
I was just reading about new age philosophy. I have my personal opinions. What are points of view of others?
July 06, 2019 at 13:44
I was just looking up the definition because someone on the forum posted it as a question. I agree more with the ancient Greek definition. There are m...

Just be you. Some people will love and accept you, while others dislike you.

A practical application to your system of your belief system. I am a beginning philosopher so I am trying to explain it in simple terms. Because I don...

I am a psychology/ social work student. It is only a certificate program, but I love studying the social sciences.
July 05, 2019 at 01:05
Thanks that makes me feel better. I was on the right track. I was just trying to answer a question.
July 05, 2019 at 01:03
So I was correct in my thinking. I felt like I misunderstood everything I was reading in my philosophy book and on the net . Your internal beliefs wil...

I hope this doesn't make me wrong in my thinking.
July 04, 2019 at 20:11
I think one should live authentically. Whether you are religious, spiritual, or philosophical.
July 04, 2019 at 20:11
I will have to study more.
July 04, 2019 at 20:09
Well someone on this forum mocked me for it. Obviously philosophy is a deep subject and I was just going with my personal definition of what philosoph...
July 04, 2019 at 20:08
I just looked up the ancient definition of philosophy and that is the love of wisdom. So daily life has nothing to do with philosophy. So glad I resea...

I meant to type thalis of miletus was the first philosopher.
July 03, 2019 at 23:55
Thanks of miletus was the first philosopher ( pre- Socrates) also known as the father of science. And of course the father of Western philosophy.
July 03, 2019 at 23:54
What did the ancient philosophers define as philosophy? The definition I found came from the 20th century.
July 03, 2019 at 23:48
The other definition is the search for the truth. I found it in one of my grandfather's old dictionaries.
July 03, 2019 at 23:45
The Webster's collegiate dictionary.
July 03, 2019 at 19:18
I just looked up philosophy in the dictionary _ a search for truth through logical reasoning rather than factual reasoning.
July 03, 2019 at 19:18
Well thank you for sharing your opinion. But I don't care what anyone thinks of my opinions. I will go study my psychology text book now.
July 02, 2019 at 23:40
Philosophy does come from our internal beliefs. I don't care who disagrees with me. It is a fact everyone has internal beliefs. If you need proof go s...

Everyone is entitled to their own perception and opinions.

Philosophy is a set guidelines that you live by and conduct your daily life.

Sometimes certain people and situations are futile. That is not normal or necessary stress. Literally say you are done and walk away.
July 01, 2019 at 21:49
I mean leave the toxic people and situations by cutting them out of your life. Just turn your back on them . They are pointless and a waste of time.
July 01, 2019 at 21:45
Everyone has financial stress. Moving is stressful. Balance of work, school, and running a household is normal stress. You don't have to be around tox...
July 01, 2019 at 21:41
You can walk away from the toxic co-worker. And not talk to them again. I am talking about avoiding unnecessary stress and toxic people.
