Philosophy - August 2006

Somebody said that logic helps us think just as much as biology helps us digest. So here is the question: how is studying logic useful?

Imagine these guys are having a chat in a pub: give an account of what they might be talking about in script form.

Please don't write an epic, limit yourself to no more than two lines of dialogue for each character. Have fun.

Generally all the above qualities are said to be virtues, but in practical experiences a person having them suffers unbearable torture from the society. Then why should we call these virtues ?

people go to temples or worship idols
all these idols of different gods,,.......they never look ugly
ok i agree that don't look pretty either but they have the best of figures , and average lookin faces
i mean nobody has seen the real god and its all just created
they just worship some silly idol!
i mean y idol worship ! you ain't even worshipping god
that's the reason i hate going to temples
for me god is all in my imagination
i don't even know is its a he or she? maybe he doesn't even have arms and legs , it ain't necessary that god looks like humans
he could be anything
even shapeless .....y human of all things
so finally my point is that idols dont really represent the TRUE GOD!
tell me what you think

or do you think it is better to just stick with the anonyminity that the internet provides us?
i am asking this because of the recent(in the past years) rise in crime rates in our nation, particularly child molestation, rape, murder, etc.
i mean, do you ever wonder if a person you are talking to on the internet could have had a shady past? it didn't really bother me much(i.e. i never realized it), until i discovered there was a horrible murderer that lived near the highway by my house...it really scares me to think someone like that could be so close to me and my family. wouldn't it be scary if we were talking to people like that on the internet--or do they even waste their time on here?
by the way: yes, i am aware of the irony in me asking this question to complete strangers...you don't have to point that out. i am just looking for some good answers to my question.

Why do I always feel not like myself? Why must I hurt? What am I doing here? What are you doing here? Why are we alone?
