    Why are fools and fanatics always so certain of themselves, but wiser people are full of doubts? Because most people are idiots. Fools know this. So for the fool to fool himself and other (fooling and getting fooled again) he has to be so sure of himself that he believes his tomfoolery. So mass media markets to the masses trash of fanatics which is sheer folly.

    Philosophy Questions

    Love or money which is better?
    love-while neither is the be all end all of existence, money is nothing more than a tool and can always be replaced by another form of power. love, on the other hand, is one of those intangibles that make life so much more than just survival.

    Why are fools and fanatics always so certain of themselves, but wiser people are full of doubts?
    the simple answer is that a wise man realizes that there are factors in every situation that he cannot know and that the lack of that information may lead him to a wrong conclusion. i think the truth is that fools and fanatics are as full of doubt as anyone else, they are just more adept at lying to themselves.

    What is the fundamental flaw in human nature? Pride - or greed?
    there is no fundamental flaw in human nature. it merely is.

    Why do all good things come to an end?
    everything comes to an end.

    If you could change gender for one day, would you do it?
    of course.

    Would you kill one person to save a thousand?
    i see no difference between the death of one and the death of a thousand.

    What does death feel like?
    i don't know. i'll tell you when i get there. i would suppose that once the nerves have stopped firing there will be nothing.

    How do you gain wisdom and knowledge?
    how do you not?

    Is it wrong to love yourself?
    only if you think it is. to be completely self-absorbed is rather foolish and pointless, but only you can determine whether it is right or wrong.

    Are you important? Do you really matter?
    to myself i'm not all that important, to some of those around me i'm quite important. on a cosmic scale of one to ten, i'd say i'm about a .0000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000 00000001

    Are we obsessed with all the wrong things in this world?
    to be obsessed with anything to the exclusion of all else is always foolish, but no minor obsession is either wrong or right.

    To live forever; a blessing or curse?
    if you consider the journey to be what is important, it would be a blessing. if you cherish the fruits of your labors above all else, it would be a curse. i'm torn on the matter, but i think that i am selfish enough to consider it a curse.

    What is more important to you: Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do, or maximizing happiness, even though that may not involve doing the right thing?
    to me they amount to the same thing. what makes me happiest is doing what i believe to be right.

    Do we have a "right" to be happy?
    NO!

    If people fear the unknown, then what is curiosity?
    a morbid desire to disappoint yourself?

    If given the choice, would you sacrifice innocence in exchange for wisdom?
    we aren't given that choice. innocence dies whether we will it or not and, though we may choose to ignore it, wisdom is the normal by-product of survival.

    Deep down, do you think everyone has evil inside them, laying dormant? Does it just come out through our actions, perhaps triggered by others?
    there seems to be a bit of everything inside each of us and we all define evil in our own ways.

    What is preferable truth or compassion?
    compassion- truth is far too elusive and usually false anyway.

    Do you believe that the majority of people in the world form their beliefs for themselves based upon what they feel, know, and experience, or do most people just believe based on what they want to believe or are told to believe? Either way, why?
    belief without evidence (mine included) seems to be based on a mixture of experience and desire. for some, one will win out over the other. you can never tell which.

    What do you feel you are entitled to in life?
    nothing i'm not willing to pay for in one way or another.

    Is life serious?
    survival is serious business. all else is just fun and games.

    Does everything in the world have an opposite?
    though i would like to believe that reality is somehow balanced, it sure doesn't seem that way.

    If it was never illegal, would you have killed someone by now?
    we are all capable of committing atrocities and then justifying them to ourselves.


    well, that was fun.:woohoo:

    Philosophy Questions

    Love or money which is better?
    Love today, i think is only for the money. Working hard and earning your own money is an ecstatic feeling. Love however, fades away.

    Why are fools and fanatics always so certain of themselves, but wiser people are full of doubts?

    What is the fundamental flaw in human nature? Pride - or greed?

    it's probably both. first you have greed. it is only AFTER fulfilling our greed, we're proud. after pride, a higher level of greed comes (political corruption). it's a never ending cycle and eventually it leads to insanity. probably the ONLY drawback of capitalism.

    Why do all good things come to an end?

    So do bad things. Everything comes to an end. One day, the whole existance of this planet and universe will end.

    If you could change gender for one day, would you do it?

    hah! yeah, i really wanna know chick psychology - and the only way to know about it is when you ARE them


    Would you kill one person to save a thousand?

    leaving religious punishments aside - i would.

    What does death feel like?

    peaceful because the first sense you lose is the sense of touch. no pain.

    How do you gain wisdom and knowledge?

    [travel, meeting people, being betrayed by people, betraying people, reading, watching telly, listening to music, talking to elders. wisdom and knowledge can even be acquired in a solitary confinement cell. all you need is an open mind.

    Is it wrong to love yourself?

    hell no.

    Are you important? Do you really matter?

    to my friends and family i do. one day i'll be an asset to the music industry. heh :thumbsup:

    Are we obsessed with all the wrong things in this world?

    sex, alcohol, gambling... we becomes obsessed with.
    i don't consider marijuana a wrong thing.
    it's human nature to try to have a sense for liking and even longing for that which is forbidden.


    To live forever; a blessing or curse?

    i would say scary. imagine if we were born and there was no concept of death whatsoever, what would it have been like then?


    What is more important to you: Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do, or maximizing happiness, even though that may not involve doing the right thing?

    happiness, for me, can only be achieved by doing the right thing. we have degrees of doing the 'wrong' thing to make us happy. overall satisfaction perhaps makes one happy. living minimal and expecting less would make one more happy because the level of greed is very low and to satisfy that is easy. what do you say?

    Do we have a "right" to be happy?

    yeah.

    If people fear the unknown, then what is curiosity?

    people do NOT fear the unknown. sailors went sailing on a 'flat' ocean. they didn't even know it was round until they "risked their lives and faced fear".

    If given the choice, would you sacrifice innocence in exchange for wisdom?

    at all cost.

    Deep down, do you think everyone has evil inside them, laying dormant? Does it just come out through our actions, perhaps triggered by others?

    everyone has evil inside them. some have more evil and some have less but there IS evil there.

    What is preferable truth or compassion?

    truth. bitter or sweet.

    Do you believe that the majority of people in the world form their beliefs for themselves based upon what they feel, know, and experience, or do most people just believe based on what they want to believe or are told to believe? Either way, why?

    most of the belief system is based on religion today. i repeat - not all but most. religion was meant to be 'one size fits all' but people today have tailored religion in a way that's very suitable to them.

    What do you feel you are entitled to in life?

    peace and a little potion of land.

    Is life serious?

    depends. some say you live only once, live it your way. question is.. is THAT serious? it's you who makes it serious or not. for me, the only serious issue of life is about food and shelter. do whatever the fuck one wants.

    Does everything in the world have an opposite?

    yes. male female. good evil. god satan. sativa indica haha. criminals n' innocent. aeroplane boatride. hot cold. satisfaction and greed. birth and death.

    If it was never illegal, would you have killed someone by now?

    probably - sloping to 'yes'

    Philosophy Questions

    Love or money which is better?

    I'm gonna go with love, I'd rather have the love of a good woman than a bunch of money that I have no passion to spend.

    Why are fools and fanatics always so certain of themselves, but wiser people are full of doubts?

    If you have no doubts, chances are you believe in yourself and the world is yours for the taking, obviously that never works out, who in history has made it to their goal by being full of themselves? Not anyone I can think of, but those that always question themselves, make themselves better and attain that goal...yeah take that psych professor that failed me.

    What is the fundamental flaw in human nature? Pride - or greed?

    Pride

    Why do all good things come to an end?

    So you remember that there are good things in life. If the good things never ended, would they still be good?

    If you could change gender for one day, would you do it?

    Yup...just to take it for a test drive, I'd never want to give up Mr. Winky in the long run, he doesn't have to push a bowling ball out!

    Would you kill one person to save a thousand?

    Depends on who that one person is. Do I have an emotional or physical attachment to them? Have I ever?

    What does death feel like?

    Death, cold and silent...at least on tv it is.

    How do you gain wisdom and knowledge?

    Doing the right thing? I suppose you gain them by listening and learning, isn't that what they tell you in school?

    Is it wrong to love yourself?

    If you can't love yourself, who can you love?

    Are you important? Do you really matter?

    I'm important in my sphere, everyone has a sphere, yours affects those around you immediately, family, friends and the like. Not so much us internet people though, we're just words on a screen. But in my sphere, I would like to say I am important, and I matter to those that need me.

    Are we obsessed with all the wrong things in this world?

    50/50, we get side tracked but most of us remember where and what we came from, and remember not to let everything go to our heads, in the long run.

    To live forever; a blessing or curse?

    Curse, I'd hate to live forever, the world would get awful crowded if everyone did it. Although I would like to have say a Moses lifespan of around 400 years or more. I feel like 60-100 years is too little.


    What is more important to you: Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do, or maximizing happiness, even though that may not involve doing the right thing?


    Depends on the situation and who is involved, and the circumstances around the people involved. It's always a matter of what you perceive to be the right thing and what others believe is the right thing. Everyone has a different perspective.

    Do we have a "right" to be happy?

    I have a right to be happy if I want too. Just as you have the right to be a grouch, bastard or just plain rude if you want.

    If people fear the unknown, then what is curiosity?

    The uncanny ability of people to turn their fear into courage.

    If given the choice, would you sacrifice innocence in exchange for wisdom?

    Nope, I would rather learn it on my own, than give up the chance and know it already...what's the fun in knowing without the experience?


    Deep down, do you think everyone has evil inside them, laying dormant? Does it just come out through our actions, perhaps triggered by others?


    Everyone is evil, because evil is what humans have decided to call their animal instincts. We are animals, we're like every other species, trying to prove to each other who is the dominant, who is alpha. By doing so, we are perceived evil by those who wish not to test their ability to be that alpha. Evil is a label given to animal instinct shown by humans rather than what we label animals.

    What is preferable truth or compassion?

    Compassion is much more fun than truth, if you give me tons of compassion, I'm gonna feel it. If you tell me the truth, woo hoo you told me the truth, I can feel it now.

    Do you believe that the majority of people in the world form their beliefs for themselves based upon what they feel, know, and experience, or do most people just believe based on what they want to believe or are told to believe? Either way, why?

    Most people get a really weird mixture of what they find out and are taught as children before they are given the choice to think for themselves, once they learn to think for themselves and form their own opinions, it often becomes the never ending internal struggle to figure out just which is right, the idea you've come to realize or that which your family has tried to instill into you. Eventually, probably late in life, one or the other will dominate and become the accepted way.

    What do you feel you are entitled to in life?

    Life, liberty and taxes...isn't that the American way, without true liberty of course.

    Is life serious?

    As a heart attack, if I don't live, I'm dead, six feet in the ground, that's pretty serious to me.

    Does everything in the world have an opposite?

    Isn't there some phrase that says for every action there is an equal and opposite reaction? So I would assume if that statement is true, then the question holds true that there would be.

    If it was never illegal, would you have killed someone by now?

    Well, yeah, you ever tried driving in 5:00 Atlanta rush hour?

    --------------

    Love or money which is better? That depends on what you are seeking in your life. Personally, love.

    Why are fools and fanatics always so certain of themselves, but wiser people are full of doubts? Because some wiser people understand that they might be wrong, and that to state anything as a certainty is to ask to be wrong.

    What is the fundamental flaw in human nature? Pride - or greed? Is there just one flaw to man? I dont think either of those options is the fundamental flaw of man. Its the imperfection of most men, which allows Pride, greed, gluttony, wrath, lust etc etc to take hold. So I guess maybe freewill is the flaw of man. Because of freewill, we are able to experience and embrace any and/or all of the deadly sins and other flaws.

    Why do all good things come to an end? Do they? Buddha would say that beginning and end, birth and death, they are just notions. Personally, I think there is some merit in what Buddha says there, but I dont know if I completely agree with him. I dont think good things come to an end, because that good is still with you forever. You choose to put "end" onto whatever happened, and in that you detract from the continuing memory of whatever it is inside you.

    If you could change gender for one day, would you do it? I dont see why not. Would be interesting. Some days I wish I could walk in other peoples shoes, just to live a life other then mine, preferably a day in the life of someone who I know and is around me.

    Would you kill one person to save a thousand? Very limiting question, but to answer directly, yes.

    What does death feel like? Havent been there, wouldnt know.

    How do you gain wisdom and knowledge? Knowledge can be gained by just reading books, and other methods similar to that. Wisdom is hard earned though, through experience, and no amount of books can give you wisdom.

    Is it wrong to love yourself? If you cant love yourself, how can anyone else love you? How can you love someone else? Thats not an excuse for vanity, but still..

    Are you important? Do you really matter? I am important to many people around me, who care about me, for me, and come to me when they need my help. I matter to these people, and if I was gone tommorow, they would all experience loss because of it.

    I also feel like I have something in this life that I was meant to do, whatever it is, I can sense great things within me, I just need time to figure out what they are.


    Are we obsessed with all the wrong things in this world? Wrong by who's standards? Wrong by what measuring?

    To live forever; a blessing or curse? Both a curse and a blessing. A gift with a price. I am sure there will be times when you would considering it a blessing, and other times that you believe it to be nothing more then a curse.

    What is more important to you: Doing the right thing because it is the right thing to do, or maximizing happiness, even though that may not involve doing the right thing? What kind of situation are we talking about? If you put into such black and white terms as you have here, its hard to answer in any way but "doing the right thing". An example would work wonders for this question.

    Do we have a "right" to be happy? I have a right to persue my happiness as long as its not purposely trying to affect others happiness.

    If people fear the unknown, then what is curiosity? People fear the unknown because the unknown means something they dont know about. Curiosity is there because man doenst like not having answers, and some are bound and determined to figure out the unknown. Its a balancing act, and different people have a different balance of fear of the unknown and curiosity.

    If given the choice, would you sacrifice innocence in exchange for wisdom? We already make that sacrifice every time we gain wisdom. We lose the innocence, and ignorance that was there before in regards to the subject, in exchange for wisdow and experience in the subject.

    Deep down, do you think everyone has evil inside them, laying dormant? Does it just come out through our actions, perhaps triggered by others? If man has freewill, then he will always have the freewill to commit any type of action, evil or good. And let us not forget that evil and good are incredibly subjective terms, my evil might be your good.

    What is preferable truth or compassion? A balance of both is important. This isnt one of those things that you can just have one or the other and be ok. A person with compassion but no truth is just as bad as a truthful person with no compassion. This is one of those many things in life that we constantly balance. I am sure most everyone can think to a time where they had to decide if it was better to not tell someone something to spare their feelings or something similar.

    Do you believe that the majority of people in the world form their beliefs for themselves based upon what they feel, know, and experience, or do most people just believe based on what they want to believe or are told to believe? Either way, why? I believe that a large majority of the people that I have been around form their beliefs based on what they were around and told as a child.

    Think of it this way, what is more comfortable, that pair of shoes you have been wearing for years that are perfectly broken in and made just for you it seems, or a brand new pair of shoes that you just saw and have never worn before?

    If you were in a catholic household as a child, odds are you were raised to be a catholic. Its going to be a drastic change, and alot of different things will be before you if you decide to switch religions, or become agnostic/atheist. People, usually, prefer the familiarity and comfort of something that they have been around for years.


    What do you feel you are entitled to in life? The chance to life up to my full potential, and nothing more. Give me the opportunity to do great things, and thats it. If I squander it, then that is my choosing, but give me the chance to do great things, and let me take it from there.

    Is life serious? Its as serious as you choose to make it.

    Does everything in the world have an opposite? Lets look at the opposite of that statement... Does everything in the world not have an opposite? Its a lovely paradox. Because if the opposite of that statement isnt true, then not everything in the world has an opposite. But if the statement is true, then it states that not everything is an opposite... lovely paradox. =)

    If it was never illegal, would you have killed someone by now? Ive come close to it once before, and after seeing what I had done to that person, I dont think I would unless it was truely neccessary.
    Answers in bold, obviously.
