Use logic here...

Philosophy AND ganja are not the ends... they are means, thus making them part of the journey- the 'end' is a term which represents the goal, nothing more- the end here is embracing the mean for what it is... as I posted.

What is Philosophy?

Should there be an ultimate question to answer when the idea is the journey?
 Quoting: Klyne


Ideas period not always answered, when you take it to the real world there are problems, most of the time there is little to no real substance to the philosophical conversations. Neither should they be put into public unless there is real evidence to study and not found as factual just study sciences are studies, not proven, just seeing if they work if they don't harm anyone. It turns into hypotheses meaning below which comes from people and their journey from philosophy into the real world and most should have more care than they have been in the last 200 years. You know that philosophy is similar to what a lot of older people called chewing fat, this is also having ideas and working with a conversation to get opinions of these ideas. There is a point where it has been overthought until someone does something, just to try something and it harms others, yes, philosophy has brought things like communism, Nazism, and Eugenics and wanting an NWO with the so-called Elites in charge but where did they come up with themselves and Elites, who agrees with them outside their box?

hypotheses (plural noun)

I copied this from another site but I disagree with this definition, the inventors in the past also used philosophy to work out their ideas. Inventing is starting a conversation of ideas, should this be made, can it be helpful or damaging to mankind, etc. Philosophically I disagree, it not always a there are different thoughts for different studies some people don't need to question a lot of things it already set in their mind some things are unanswerable and will always be unknowable.

The short answer
Philosophy is a way of thinking about certain subjects such as ethics, thought, existence, time, meaning and value. That 'way of thinking' involves 4 Rs: responsiveness, reflection, reason and re-evaluation. The aim is to deepen understanding. The hope is that by doing philosophy we learn to think better, to act more wisely, and thereby help to improve the quality of all our lives.

This is hit and miss a short answer. Just crew the fat and don't act on your ideas without a public vote on it.

 Quoting: hankie


Thank you for showing your perspective. I find that the gist I see in it is one I can agree with. The purpose to think better, act more wisely and help improve the quality of all our lives.

My question is mainly there to serve as a stimulation for contemplation. If the idea is the journey, and journey implies a destination, is there an ultimate destination?

I would say there isn't, because the process is implied (new ideas and new journeys). Actually, the journey - of this very idea - is something I would even call an Odyssey. It is a journey of journeys. It is a personal epic.

No single step is irrelevant, every moment counts. That's how I see it.

To quote a similar sentiment from earlier

Set your heart ablaze and embrace this very moment in full. It is your epic. Not a step on the way to victoriousness was ever in vain. You lived, and you won.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 76437845


Embracing the moment means living it and not being lost in it. My philosophy for life includes the strategic view of all that must be done.

And that includes considering the consequences of implementing any doctrine.

This is why I say that I agree. Have I understood you well?

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
So to clarify it,

Why debates are useless is because the nature of debate is the Invective humor.

Rather than about understanding (or what some would call the dialectic method, which is not "debating") it is about publicly discrediting the opponent.

Debates are emotional in essence as they are fueled by invective humors.

Mathematics is an example of an axiomatic system

Is philosophy a collection of various axiomatic systems albeit in these realms the discourse is usually carried out in a less rigorous or precise way?

 Quoting: Lookless Sight, Soonless Light


Regardless of how much logic. grammer or IQ points one has, using a linear construct (language) to investigate a non-linear phenomena (metaphysics/ethics/epistemology...reality) is a fool's errand. To embrace true philosophy one must transcend the linear causal factors that bind one and that words are beholden to. One must explore experientially (Some time-honored methods include things like seated, formal meditation, hard physical labor, renunciation of social relationships and comfort items etc.)

When factoring in the 'tautology' you mention earlier, everything else (jibber-jab) is just mumbojumbo riding the winds of hot air.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69704841


The nonlinearity of contemporary philosophic methods has been addressed. Transcendence is unecessary and contradicts your statement that it must be experiential. Experiential requires immanence, not transcendence. Your conceptualization is incoherent.

Formal meditation, hard physical labor, social relationships and comfort are simply options for ways to explore new perspectives. These are not requirements for philosophy.

This is my first note of your pedophilic projection. You have decided to make children the only source of fun in your reality.

You're rambling aren't you? I guess you're feeling a sissy bitch inside you.
 Quoting: Lookless Sight, Soonless Light


No, that would be if I was having (or trying to have) fun... try to keep up (which I'm not, gut-checking fools is a full-time gig, and it's hard work most of the time).

And besides, I have long since kicked the sissy-bitch inside of me into submission-
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69704841


You have given nothing to keep up with, but to make the point here clear, rather than your attempts to put up straw men that you can easily defeat (is it because you can't address anything real or significant in this thread?)

The point is that I could easily delete your posts, and I knew you would write this way, so I would have deleted it immediately, but for the sake of transparency and to not give you a "sissy bitch" excuse to go crying about "censorship" I let you expose yourself on this thread.

That's the real point.

"Philosophy is my Ganja. I get high on this, man." (Me, paraphrased)

Philosophy is the highest pleasure (according to many old smart guys from the Mediterranean).

Just remember, like ganja, philosophy is a means to an end and not the end in itself.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69704841


It is both the means and the end, the journey and the destination. In the spirit of pointing out fallacies, understand your False Dichotomy.

Once more, thank you for being useful to this thread as the example of why debates are pointless, and why pointing out fallacies, crying about ad hominem and all this other technical talk is FOR debates, which this thread is not, and entirely based in the experience of the invective humor, and nothing really useful.

You wrote some valid things but overall I dont see any use for you except for an example.

When you do something for fun you will always be better at it than anyone else who does it for any other reason.

That's some practical life advice from someone who doesn't feel like a submissive sissy bitch. Such things do not live in me, nor around me. There is no sissy bitch with which to interact.

Though I have many sissy bitch neighbors and they come to socialize with me sometimes and I don't mind them. I like the feminine. I like it being there, I like seeing it, enjoying it, cherishing it.

I love girls and stuff, as a guy it's sort of natural.

Anyway, if you hate women I don't like you but I can understand it's probably because you hate your mom, who is essentially you and yet greater than you.

That is how it goes for narcissism. They usually hate their moms. Not their dads. It's common.
 Quoting: Lookless Sight, Soonless Light


* Spoken like someone with very little life experience (my guess is you have yet to see 30?). It is a well known effect that individuals cannot see or effectively analyse their own situation, as they lack the required perspective/distance to view it from with clarity... I would posit that the sissy bitch, which you so readily claim does not exist inside of you, is in fact firmly in control of the entire works!

Does this make you feel angry, frustrated or even slightly amused? Then she (sissy-bitch) IS calling the shots!

:ohyeah
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 69704841


Continuing the line of your Emotion that fun is only for children, it is worth clarifying my own words here so you don't get away with debating one-sidedly.

Fun is for anyone. I use the word "girls" in the sense of the Russian term "devchonki" which translates more to the word "gals" but it's not a word I tend to use.

Taking your bait about life experience (ad hominem as an invective humor, making irrelevant points in attempt to discredit) I wrote that age and life experience are not the same.

This isn't to say they are entirely separate, however, it does guarantee you didn't make any relevant point with that comment.

It can go on the record of this thread that all of our talk, between you and me (let's pretend it was a dialectic, just an emotional one) stemmed from the invective humor you supplied.

The humor isn't mine, and I don't find it enjoyable, so based on the reference to the experience of it, and it's source, I would bet money that you are a pedophile.

This is the same invective humor in action here now.

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
Haragei

The stomach art! Four dimensions of silence include Truthfulness, Defiance, Embarassment and Social Discretion.

It can be summed as the wisdom for remaining silent at the correct moments. Of course it can also be expanded for more detail.
 Quoting: Tihatatatan


I did want to expand more on this particular theme because I feel it illustrated well the way I had been thinking about the "supremes" of philosophy.

The example of these four so-called "dimensions" isn't placing one as higher in relevance or importance than another.

They are simply useful for differing situations. That's also how I was understanding the "supremes" of Ethics, Epistemology, Aesthetics and Logic. It isn't rock paper scissors, they all are necessary.

However, this is simply to accentuate the model that can be seen. It is different to have multiple supremes.

I dont want it to be confused with some kind of "poly-deism" where some ideas are exalted to the status of being divine.

I think of it more like the Prime numbers (not to say it is based in mathematics, but simply it is another example that further illustrates the meaning).

Prime numbers are all supreme in a way. They are only divisible by One and Self. They are not the same, the are not redundant, they cannot be replaced by each other.

So this is more like the idea I had in mind.

Regarding the actual details of Haragei, I do find this theme interesting though I dont know much about it. If someone knows about it or simply wants to discuss it, I'm open to it (at least for now).

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
Regarding the juxtaposition of Architectonics and Axiology, the main emphasis I am making is in that Axiology is endlessly extensible.

It might not be fair to restrict Epistemology to Axiology (because it would mean that any fact would have a counterfactual). I think a case could be made for this, however it is made as a notion. It isn't an axiom, nor an inference.

In the english language there is a term "counterfactual" which simply means anything other than the fact.

I've explored nuances of it before, such as in

The 4 counterfactual modalities are

* What could have been
* What could be soon
* What could be elsewise now
* What isn't

And obviously the factual modality would be

* What is

 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 74533487


It's a bit convoluted by in simpler terms it is simply whatever is or was or could be "possible".

For example, the concept of Opportunity Cost basically pivots on this notion of "counterfactual possibilities". If there was "an opportunity that wasn't taken" (thus being a cost by its absence) then there is a "counterfactual" series of events that are not the fact.

This "oppositeness" of factual and counterfactual would form an Epistemic axis that could become its own set of quadrants.

For example,

Factual Knowledge (Evidence),
Counterfactual Knowledge (Simulation ...not like the matrix, but more like simulating possible outcomes in one's imagination)
Factual Experience (Waking),
Counterfactual Experience (Dreaming)

So this example shows how it can be reasonable to understand Epistemology as axiological (in the same domain of philosophy where Aesthetics are defined, though not necessarily related)

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
The video has given me something to think about. I've had a limited understanding regarding the role of absent parents in someone's life. I think my view of it has lacked nuance.

I've taken for granted some things my parents did for me that didn't seem so majorly important at the time, but I do see how it protected me later.

One thing I will say now is to admit I was lying about a few things.

I lied about being a nihilist and I lied about this thread being fun. It stopped being fun almost immediately (but I kept it going due to feeling responsibility for having gotten attention in the first place).

I understand there are serious issues in the world but understand me too, that I am not here on this site for help or solutions.

I can have my family and be a good father and that will have to be enough, because it is something I already will do. It's just obvious.

There is no quick and impactful solution for social parenting problems. It can only be one child at a time, within one generation at a time.

Slow, arduous, and gradual. What other options are really available? (Really)

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
Regarding the analysis of the situation in the video, there are some subtleties with which I cannot agree. However they are based on my subjective experiential facts, anecdotal to the trend, and probably an outlier.

The general principle is probably true: missing parents result in developmental disorders and inability to socialize...such that the person is unable to achieve meaningful satisfaction in life.

This stunts the maturation of awareness and understanding in the person suffering from such misfortune, and they remain trapped in a field of pain which obscures their view of the present as deep traumatic memories that overtake them as a false identity which is loathe to die or heal (which is for it to dissolve, and therefore, die).

The resistance to treatment, resolution and re-integration into society is indistinguishable from this same false identity, a vibrating and quasi-intelligent unconscious emotional continuity of pain.

Once again it can be seen that there is no One-Stop-Shop nor One-Size-Fits-All solution for those suffering from this affliction. Of course, this can be prevented by better parenting. However those already afflicted will not benefit from preventative measures.

They can only be helped one at a time, case by case, facing the pain that drives them into unconscious behaviors and dissolving the past hurts by understanding them.

For better or for worse, I have written a text that addresses these concerns which is designed to allow a reader to enter this process privately and individually. I think I will have it up on a site where I'll probably make it free, but accept donations.

However it is facing the editor now and being honest, it needs work. I can't help but hope it will make a difference.

If written, words are true - if written words are true - this sentence is (tautologically) true.
 Quoting: Klyne


In logic theory, the statement "All of my cars are green." is a true statement if I don't have any cars. They call it a "vacuously true" statement.

So you can impress people by truthfully saying "All of my Ferraris are in the shop."

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
Maybe the sarcastic posts don't fit the mood of how this thread has gone. I think it tends to attract people who are annoyed and have something to say. I don't think this is bad, I just didn't have a way to know how this thread would have gone. Should I leave the thread as it is, or should I edit/delete some of the early posts to spare everyone (including new commenters) the trouble?


Edit: a lot of misspellings

This thread has been sliced and diced every which way. Then it was renamed and revised, edited, and sex reassigned. Then it caught a flight to mars and was shredded by a meteor shower

Anything more or less done to this thread at this point is like throwing a hotdog down a hallway.

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
The new idea is the latest philosophical primes. They are Induction, Wit, Economics, Design, Imagination and Strategy

It might be noticed that some of these are analogs of prior mentioned supremes or their relations..! However, it is its own thing.

Induction obviously ref. to Hume's problem of induction (more popularly called Black Swan event) which is the beginning of philosophy, I say.

Wit, to escape the drudgery.

Economics, to be grounded in the real.

Design, to elegantly embrace all forms of art as intelligence.

Imagination as the basis of intelligence in the first place.

Strategy as the operational effectiveness being aware of the world, having a goal within it and referencing actions accordingly.

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
Ethics is not mentioned because it is inseparable from Economics. There is no "unethical economics", that would simply be crime.

Mathematics is not mentioned because Induction takes us to all the proofs in the patterns we discover.

Aesthetics can be found in the principles of Design. Logic here is ambiguously excluded.

Logic has gotten too much attention already!! Shut up Logic!

Ok.

Re: The Circular Repetitive Monotony of Philosophical Discourse
What does each of this list of prime values as words in philosophical discourse take away from the meaning of each other to center them each precisely within their own field of meaning?

I don't know, but I might find out.

Alright I think I'm not going to find out. You can only talk to a blank wall of your own words for so long. It shouldn't even be that long, I say. I might just be a special case. A special nutcase. Har har.
