I hate Philosophy.

I hate Philosophy. So boring and so useless.

[Rhyfelwyr]

You doing it at University or something?

I think its interesting... until it gets confusing and then I just get tired and go take a nap.

[Subotan]

Wrong.

Philosophy is awesome.

[naut]

But, the question is, do you really hate philosophy? What if you are actually a philosopher dreaming he is a boy doing philosophy and pretending to hate it?

Guess you're not one for metacognition.

My highschool gave out awards based on the students and thats what I received. The metacognition award, for my continual promises to do my homework and never actually turning it in. I used to be pretty good at it too, like, DON'T WORRY I got this legit idea Mr.Teach, its going to include pigeons and gas prices and how they all mold around this one central thesis and how it all ties into interstellar travel.

true story bros. true story

Philosophy boring? How preposterous.

Where else can you argue that democracy as practically the same as slavery and win the argument or utter the words "Sir, it's turtles all the way down".

It's mostly useless, I give you that.

bring it to the Backroom brother, i will eat you for breakfast!

[jirisys]

Wrong.

It is.

This is philosophy, though more informal, a nice start to the subject anyways.

It's great to know you are so wrong about everything.

I hate Philosophy. So boring and so useless.

you are most likely talking about history of philosophy.

philosophy cant really be boring, its not what you think or think about its how you think, the structures and layers of your thought.

[ELITEofWARMANGINGERYBREADMEN88]

It just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

[Subotan]

It just doesn't make any sense whatsoever.

Well, that depends. What are you studying? If it's Hegel, I'm so sorry, but I can't help you.

[Fragony]

Yeah philosophy is boring and useless, boring and useless people will tell other boring and useless people it isn't but it is. I get especially annoyed when someone backs up an argument with quoting one of these armchair-knowololigists

BUT KANT SAID

oh did he #cares

I am about to take an intro to philosophy course at my local community college to get some general requirements done with.

Philosophy are other people's ideas. Talk to as many people as you can in your city. Do you understand them and who they are? Not really. So why would you think that understanding the thoughts of someone who lived 50-4,000 years before you would be any easier?

Yes I can understand who they are and such. I just don't care about "A penny you looking at isn't really a penny if..." BS.

So this thread's title should actually be called "I hate some topics covered by epistemology"?

Then just do the work (if this is for a clas you are taking) and find some other philosopher who talks about something you do care about. There is a lot more than simply questioning how far our senses go in perceiving the world.

What are some questions you do find interesting, or find yourself wondering from time to time? If you don't have any, maybe the philosophy isn't the boring one in this scenario...

[Veho Nex]

... its how you think, the structures and layers of your thought.

When you put it that way...
