Isn't Peace its own kind of War?
If people have too much peace, we end up fat and lazy with no push forward. Sure we gain intelligence, but lose ourselves in the process. We can kill ourselves we peace too. Peace kills us mentally and war kills us physically. This is why what we really need is found in the midst of the two not in one or the other. A search for peace is not the answer, it will only lead to more war. History shows it.
I guess I am just tired of everyone thinking peace alone is the solution. If it was that easy, wouldn't have man found peace by now? Oh yeah, he did right? He found war? I wish humanity would just stop trying to play God, trying to rise above nature itself. This will be our downfall. Nature will strike back. This universe can only take so much humanity.
13 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoHow do we know the religion we follow is what it was meant to be?
All religious works are written by people and being people they instinctively put there own bias in. Then religions seem to seperate and get more corrupted over time by people's new biases getting tossed onto the original biased works. So how do we know our faith is founded in what it should be or what it is meant to be? "God" didn't make religion, man did to understand "God." Are we all just making "God" fit us? We all look for peace, but find hate in corruption. If one religion is right, then why so many? They are all part of "God's" work. So which one is really "God's" work? As individuals and as a species, how do we know?
15 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoIs it possible to start your own religion in this day and age? How?
I am just tired of all religions of all types pointing fingers at each other. I would like to propose a religion built on the foundation of all religions that all could follow, unity and balance. Religion is meant to unite us, not to divide us. I want us to realize that we are united because we are all individuals. The truth can be found only when all truths are examined, the fine lining is there. I call it weism. Of course, it would have to be a religion that can't be preverted by "deaf mutes." End the war, let's take religion back to its roots and make it the way is is supposed to be.
4 AnswersReligion & Spirituality1 decade agoWhat is philosophy to you?
Assuming logic can become flawed (contradict itself) and that logic is the the systematic process behind philosophy. Also assuming that philosophy is what is behind everything in the world. What are we following? Aren't we contradicting our very own existence? What are we really searching for in a quest that contradicts itself? Why ask why?
9 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoIs it possible to ask some many questions you run out of answers?
At what point do we as philosophers, thinking beings, start going around in circles and contradicting ourselves with our own answers. Can logic make itself work againist itself?
5 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoWhat is the greatest "sin" we can commit againist humanity?
The greatest sin, I believe is not asking why and blindly accepting what the majority says. Only accepting what the majority says is worse than death itself.
19 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoIs Philosophy old-fashionied or is it still alive and well?
Everyone seems to talk about philosophy as if it is some sort of old worn out rag.
I personally believe that life itself is philosophy. Everything that a individual or group believes is their philosophy and what we believe defines who we are. Philosophy is everywhere.
All businesses, schools, religions, and countries revolve around their own philosophy. Even all our sciences and matematics started with philosophy.
What do you think?
