  3. If You Could Live For 1,000 Years Would This Completely Change Your Life's Focus?
     What if you could live for 1,000 years, would you change your life's focus? What would you be doing instead? After all, mortality does influence the way people think, Maslow predicts that human self-preservation is at the top of their list, too, and because of this we see people spending significant money to stay alive even for one more month, sometimes their life's savings on medical bills. Due to these expenditures and the human desire to live longer vast resources...

  4. Don't Like the Thought of Dying - Soon it Will Be Possible to Live For 1,000 Years
     Now they say that self-preservation is amongst the highest of innate personal needs and speaking from personal experience, I do not like this idea of dying either, as it is unfortunate and so limiting. What if you could live to be 1,000 years, would you go for it? Would living that long slow innovation? I mean, as one very wise man recently asked; are people currently working harder because time is running out for them and if they had forever to live wouldn't they take it easy?

  5. Are You As Smart As the Famous Dead Philosophers?
     Why worship 'Dead White Men' anymore? You see, you and I are perhaps more knowledgeable then many of the great philosopher names in history for we have read their information, plus have the benefits of knowledge of everything since. Had they had the same benefit of things like the Internet, plus their original thoughts to expand upon, just imagine that. What if these philosophers were still alive today, what if they had lived 1,000 to 2,000 years?

  6. Will a 1,000 Year Life Span For Humanity Create an Agrarian Society?
     The question has been pondered throughout the ages. What would happen to human society and civilization if human life span were drastically increased? Would wars cease, would we become an agrarian society? This too has also been postulated by Sci Fi writers like Isaac Asimov and others and recently a brilliant thinker Brian furthers this line of thought with this question; "Isn't it likely that an extended life would inevitably lead to an agrarian society inevitably leading to a technological regression?"

  7. Longer Life Spans For Scientists Would Increase Innovation
     Due to shortened life spans many scientists are unable to complete their life's work or have the satisfaction of knowing if they were right or wrong or what the actual answer really was; and yes for them the journey was probably just as rewarding. Yet, imagine what they might have done if they had known, what other insight or concept them might have embarked on? What if scientists lived for 1,000 years? Why do I ponder this question? Well, we have a real problem with the branches of human knowledge and science...

  8. The Philosopher King
     Plato's Republic is one of the most influential works in all philosophy. It is heavy stuff, but at the root of it, the discussion is about one idea: what would the world be like if philosophers ruled? This simple statement, eight words long, seems harmless enough, but it actually brings about a tirade of intense moral and ethical dilemmas, inherently questioning everything we know to be right and wrong.

  9. Justice - Aspiration, Hubris, and Morality
     Humans aspire to justice. But is it an arrogant assumption that human beings believe they can understand and deliver justice? Then too, is the profession of justice within our moral ability? Of course there are no universally acceptable answers to such questions, and yet if we are to hold order to civilization, there is no alternative but to attempt justice, as imperfect as it will always be. "A man is a little thing while he works by and for himself; but when he gives voice to the rules of love and justice, he is godlike" (Ralph Waldo Emerson).

  10. Let Me Teach You to Think Like Me - We'll All Be Smart and Continue to Live Free!
     Be forewarned of the man who wishes to teach you to think, then rewards you by telling you that you are smart. Such indoctrination will cloud your judgment, your mind, and your heart. Have you ever noticed how academia has a way of training your mind to think a certain way? Sometimes you have to consider these things. Anyway, I have found some interesting things reading all the "Futurist" writers that is quite problematic, in that the group actually offers classes to teach you how to think like them, so that you can think better?

  11. Is a Revolution Really a Change?
     Throughout history, revolutions have brought about the fall of one governing body, dictator, or system only to replace it with another. Many see this as change, but is it really change, after all, if this is so common, it is more of cycle than change.

  12. A Life of Professionalism
     Have you ever heard the terms "live life as a professional to professional standards and not as an amateur to amateur standards"? Well, this article will give an old, but genuinely working meaning to that saying.
     Thu, 20 Nov 2008 14:48:08 -0600
  13. What's War?
     War is a romanticized version of adversity, where, no matter what's happening, or who is affected, we get our own way entirely. Adversity is functional, not personal.

  15. Philosophy - The Elixir Of Life
     It is quite evident here that philosophy is the best kind of healing which doesn't only soothe our body and mind but also removes the cataract of ignorance to see the Truth. Thus philosophy is an elixir which spurs us to wake up from our dogmatic slumber which seems to have sealed our spirits.

  17. Heidegger - Language is the House of Being
     Heidegger's cryptic remark, "Language is the House of Being," may is interpreted to mean that language is man's soul. The metaphor 'house' implies a construct which paradoxically contains and is contained by Being.
     Mon, 17 Nov 2008 15:37:59 -0600
  18. Consciousness of Physical Existence
     When we recoil from the agnosticism of Kantianism "camouflaged" by the substitution of experience-in-general for the structure and demands of the consciousness of individual knowers and the identification of the physical world with constructs within this blanket experience, and return to a critical development of the leadings within common sense, we soon see that we humans do possess information about the physical existents we affirm.
     Mon, 17 Nov 2008 11:46:28 -0600
  19. Idealism and Agnosticism
     We have seen nothing in our method of empirical advance that justifies either idealism or agnosticism. Hopefully philosophy has passed beyond the stage of jumping at hasty conclusions. What is needed is a patient analysis which goes forward step by step under the guidance of the facts until it reaches new insights.
     Mon, 17 Nov 2008 11:43:44 -0600
  20. Physical Reality and Our Knowledge
     We think physical reality in terms of our knowledge of it. It is this thinking physical reality in terms of our knowledge which the reference of our knowledge to reality means. We are confined to knowledge since we cannot intuit physical reality; but we have given concrete reasons for our belief in the correspondence of datum and object.

  21. Specific Human Knowledge
     Knowledge of other minds-knowledge of other consciousnesses is different from knowledge of the physical world. It is knowledge through asserted identity of content, whereas knowledge of the physical world is information about its object with no assertion of identity of content.
     Sun, 16 Nov 2008 09:58:53 -0600
  22. Universals in Knowledge
     One of the main contentions has been the desirability of setting up a critical notion of what knowledge of the physical world actually is. It is hard for mere mortals to comprehend the physical world because they become distracted by life's small trials and tribulations. To understand the general concept of knowledge takes much focus and motivation.

  23. The Basic Operating Principles of Honesty - A Reality Sermon
     In honesty there are no excuses just actions taken on pure, cold, rational reality. Yet, those actions can be the warmest and most honestly generous of all as the point in this article proves.

  24. Does Physical Battle Really Make a Man Stronger?
     They say, that which does not kill us makes us stronger, but does physical battle really make a man stronger or do those injuries incurred really make them weaker? We know from the animal kingdom that the tough alpha-male has many challengers and becomes a good fighter, but it is at a cost, and those injuries eventually take their toll, until he is reduced to a lower social order, killed and a new alpha male takes over.

  25. The Age of Despair - And Hope
     Everyday we are swamped with bad news.

  26. Situational Ethics
     Are your ethics situational? Do they change according to what is best for you or are they set in stone?
     Wed, 12 Nov 2008 13:09:01 -0600
  27. The Truth-Action Paradox
     The head of the BBC told me once that he never had any trouble making the right decision once he had all the facts. "But I never know when I have all the facts." A survey of information disasters over the last thirty years, from Three Mile Island to Katrina to the collapse of Wall Street, suggests that he was not alone.

  28. The World is Not Flat - It's Folded
     Thomas Friedman, in his New York Times bestseller book "The World Is Flat" explained how each year the world gets closer and closer together due to technology, transportation, and communication. He showed how our currency is interconnected and our economies rely on one another. He described the flow of trade, and he borrowed the phrase "the world is flat" to describe this.

  29. The Universe As Living Organism
     I read the other day that astronomers have spotted a huge nebula in our galaxy in the shape of a double helix. I couldn't believe it so I Googled 'double helix in outer space' and sure enough there is a picture of it. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it.

  30. A Generation - From Fiction to Reality
     People can say that nowadays life is a by-product of the filmic use of media, and not film as a by-product of life, such as is in the other arts. This is not another perspective or conspiracy theory on mass media, and its strategies of persuasion and intoxication through information. It is the opposite, an examination of the perception of the subject known to the psychologist, or consumer known to the industry, and at last the spectator known to arts.
     Thu, 06 Nov 2008 15:14:29 -0600
  31. The Question of Truth
     It is the claim of critical realism that it can suggest an evolutionary naturalism for which consciousness and the functioning brain can be thought of as continuous and one natural whole by reason of this difference in our knowledge of them. Mental contents are intuited, the brain is not.

  35. Plato's Ideal City
     The Guardians in Plato's Ideal city serve as the protectors and leaders. They are the soldiers and the rulers. In fact, Plato divides the Guardians into two groups: the Rulers and the Auxiliaries.

  36. What the World Needs Now
     "What the World Needs Now Is Love" a song written by Hal David and Burt Bacharach, performed by Jackie DeShannon, was a top 10 song during the summer of 1965. It captures the "love" movement of the 60's. Although the poets, philosophers and songwriters have waxed on about the sublime heights of love for centuries there appears to be a scarcity of it in our modern world. The negative emotions of fear, guilt and envy seem to reign supreme.

  37. Bend the Rules, Break the Bank - What I Learned From the Credit Squeeze
     While September 11 was inflicted by our enemies and the Tsunami of 2006 was inflicted by Nature, the recent credit squeeze was a man-made disaster. Such disasters can be very instructive, providing valuable lessons in human behavior. The recent credit squeeze is no exception and I gleaned several lessons from it; nothing esoteric, no rocket science here, but simple rules and lessons forgotten with time.
     Tue, 04 Nov 2008 11:13:17 -0600
  38. Plato's Ideal City - Part 3 - The Problem With Democracy
     Plato criticizes the democratic city because, he says, under this type of leadership, everyone is free to do as he likes with no real respect for authority. Consequently, this unbalances the stability of the Ideal State and makes it worse. Plato goes on to say that the leaders in a democratic city are not required to have any training at all.
     Tue, 04 Nov 2008 10:55:51 -0600
  39. Plato's Ideal City - Part 2 - Three Parts of the Soul
     Plato's Ideal City is divided into three parts: the Guardians, the auxiliaries, and the craftsment. Now, Plato divides a man into three similar parts.

  40. The Universe As Living Organism
     I read the other day that astronomers have spotted a huge nebula in our galaxy in the shape of a double helix. I couldn't believe it so I Googled 'double helix in outer space' and sure enough there is a picture of it. I haven't been able to stop thinking about it.

  41. Ancient Celtic Culture
     The ancient Celtic warriors engaged their enemy as if they would defeat them simply by overrunning them, trusting their brute force more than elaborate tactics and clever strategies. War and warfare definitely played an important role in their ancient society. The end of ancient Celtic culture came when Ireland was Christianized in the 5th century BC, followed by Scotland soon after.

  44. Philosophy in a Nutshell - Freedom Versus Determinism
     Two of the most important and most noble purposes of philosophy are to promote intellectual independence and to awaken the thirst for wisdom. Put simply, philosophy aims to get individuals to think, hopefully to ponder deeply about more fundamental issues than those which occupy most of our everyday lives. A brief examination of the issue of freedom versus determinism helps to define the scope of philosophy and related controversies. Learn more.

  45. Four Freedoms
     Former US President Franklin D. Roosevelt (a.k.a. FDR) lived and served in tumultuous times, his life ending at the death throes of World War II in April 1945. He was held to say, "It is a very good thing to demand liberty for ourselves and for those who agree with us, but it is a better thing and a rarer thing to give liberty to others who do not agree with us." Here are his four freedoms.

  48. What is Art?

  50. Do We All Live in a Glocal Society?
     There are many nonprofit organizations that ask people to think globally and act locally. The world is getting closer together and our nation's economy is interlinked to all the countries of the world. Everything that happens affects everything else. We have learned that the US consumer and their buying behavior can sink whole economies or invite hyper-inflation to emerging nations. This creates chaos, as well as opportunity.
