Well I think this happens because we are making our brain to work/act faster than actually it does. If we see the colours more vividly is due to a dis...

Novel with cocaine. by M. Aguéiev.
March 24, 2021 at 15:58
I understand your point and what are you trying to explain. I guess when I am making a coffee I believe in it in a tangible aspect. The colour, the sm...
March 24, 2021 at 15:38
Interesting point of view. So you think basically that common and custom things we do all day shouldn’t be questioned because they are already accepte...
March 24, 2021 at 14:49
Examples of which common sense we (supposedly) all are agree? I think you will like check this article in relation of your questions and debate: http:...

It seems so interesting. Thank you for refreshing and sharing it again months later. I will give it a read :up:
March 24, 2021 at 06:27
True. I guess there are some philosophers here that are misunderstood. They try to put explain desire with reason when probably in the initial phase t...
March 24, 2021 at 05:34
Agree. The brain can help us to make the right action when we have to reasoning. Nevertheless, I think the experience is also important here. Most of ...
March 24, 2021 at 05:22
I understand your point. No, of course you are not wrong. Probably I am even the wrong here. I guess we have the right of object and debate about ever...
March 23, 2021 at 19:41
Interesting question. Really. I think in this point we have to consider how far the pleasure goes in our lives. Some would consider that pleasure is s...
March 23, 2021 at 19:30
Not necessarily. The point here is not searching subterfuges at all. It is just the act of living a life but without the hope of something extraordina...
March 23, 2021 at 19:19
No. I am atheists because I don’t believe in any subterfuge. I don’t think the world is predetermined by a powerful entity or divinity which somehow r...
March 23, 2021 at 18:58
I think not. Nominalising verbs or adjectives have the goal of creating complex words and then introduced it in our vocabulary. When we are speaking a...
March 23, 2021 at 18:08
Yes. Exactly. Some decades about when we saw it in movies it looked like sci fi but we will be witnesses about this big problem. I mean, States could ...

My best is on cosmos beyond physical world or god
March 23, 2021 at 15:40
True! One of the biggest fails a State ever created was the point of start creating conflicts with the purpose of surpassing others. A good example we...

Philosophy = ?

I think here the weapons are not the problem at all to preserve or destroy the worldwide peace. It is about the military service or how some countries...
March 23, 2021 at 06:27
As @"Pfhorrest" explained to you is necessary logical to the the function of the world. Aristotle explained in his writings that "one object cannot be...
March 23, 2021 at 05:23
I guess to try to answer this complex question it depends a lot of your knowledge in ethics. "good" and "bad" are terms which fluctuate a lot along th...
March 22, 2021 at 21:05
I think yes. Probably out here there is only one truth in the end of the day. We can call it tangible world (for example) that show us to how truly is...
March 22, 2021 at 20:54
But these patterns have to be taught previously in someone's brain. So the ability to reason is soft innate. John Locke put a good example here. One o...
March 22, 2021 at 17:46
Interesting hypothesis. But I would like say "Supreme" figure (or God to the religious ones) instead of soul because this soul has to exist necessaril...

Cogito ergo sum... If I am aware (or think as you say) that I am in a phone/computer screen, then I am literally doing it. This mechanism helps us (mo...
March 22, 2021 at 15:36
Interesting quotes about Keats. Something complex as truth is just another example which fits in this debate. It is an abstract concept that somehow c...

March 22, 2021 at 14:00
Sure freedom is the answer but with some limits too.
March 22, 2021 at 09:37
It is not the same when someone is already pregnant than other does not. We are speaking here about preventing it not sacrifice all of those who are a...
March 22, 2021 at 08:13
Yes. The past still be there. It doesn't matter the new circumstances. With this premise you are literally saving that those lives taken are not worth...
March 22, 2021 at 05:23
It is a free open answer. Also, it depends of which philosopher are we influenced of. I guess when they explain it refers to all of these thoughts tha...

The story has a lot of symbolism about Japan in the 60's (if I remember it properly) but the most interesting fact is a group of friends who appear in...
March 21, 2021 at 16:13
I am going to recommend to you, if you don't mind, a book which is about this topic and the story is pure brilliant. The book is called The Sailor Who...
March 21, 2021 at 15:57
Hello! Yes I understand your point now. It is interesting this point because somehow remembers me an utopianism because it is impossible here preventi...
March 21, 2021 at 14:50
I guess it is not about killing humans who already born but preventing the future of some parents (not all true) of having kids if they have lack of r...
March 21, 2021 at 14:30
Oh no. I do not want a holocaust of pregnant women. Neither I want laws which order to courts punish all them who despite they are irresponsible they ...
March 21, 2021 at 14:03
I guess people who are irresponsible with their own lives shouldn't have the right of breed not only Kids but animals. Having kid is a serious issue t...
March 21, 2021 at 13:12
I guess sustenance. Absolute antinatalist is quite impossible because there will be always Kids (even more in so religious countries) but I would cons...
March 21, 2021 at 12:25
Interesting! Because you defend morality is an act which necessarily needs a reciprocity. I never thought it that way because I always feel that moral...
March 21, 2021 at 10:15
As you clearly explained previously this a deep topic to debate about. I guess (mathematically) it is impossible to make immoral actions when you are ...
March 21, 2021 at 10:03
Then, I have to say you are in the right path. Expending time in just our beneficial purposes is one of the best things we can do. Time is something i...
March 21, 2021 at 08:36
This point is very important because it reflects what I wanted to argued previously. Sometimes spending time off by ourselves can also develop good or...
March 21, 2021 at 07:54
Probably some who gives up in social interactions and then wants to isolate. I guess the point is simple but Bakunin thought that this act is somehow ...
March 21, 2021 at 07:01
He literally did in the rest of his works or books. Bakunin in his first political days was socialist so probably he criticised loneliness as an act o...

It generates money and then marketing. Picasso is more famous than Diogenes because there are a lot of commercial interests of rich people flowing aro...
March 21, 2021 at 05:50
It could be a rejection of everything around us. One person can decide to isolate himself because literally want to live alone with his ownthoughts. S...
March 21, 2021 at 05:44
I think Bakunin was somehow misunderstood back in the day. Probably he started being communist or socialist but he ended up not believing in anything ...

We are the only conscious living in universe because we do not reach the accurate technology to demonstrate the contrary yet. I think saying humanity ...

I want to be free but with more limits in we know in the West as “modern society” I would sound totalitarian but in important things as voting or inte...
