Philosophy - July 2007

After reading Richard Dawkin's 'The God dellusion' I felt elated.
After reading John Gray's 'Straw dogs' I felt deflated.
Has anyone else read these, if so what where your feelings/thoughts after reading them?

Just as there are musical frequencies we find more pleasing than others, are there likewise certain color wavelengths that our brains are programmed to appreciate while others we find less pure, beautiful or aesthetically satisfying? If so, do these colors appear in nature more often and could this explain why we find them satisfying?

Is simplicity the ultimate sophistication? No one would buy a simple cell phone compared to a complex cell phone. No one wants to wear the same style clothes as the other person and no one has the discipline to keep life simple. Does this mean they are not sophisticated?
Also, isn't a sophisticated person someone who studies complex and abstract ideas. What are your opinions?

This was a long time ago, so it may be exaggerated but there was evidance on his gravestone to support it.

Now remember, I don't mean like going to the beach or going into 4 foot deep water, I mean being in the open waters in the middle of the ocean where the water can go miles down. It just scares the crap out of me! mostly because of all the things that might be there, knowing my luck, I would turn around and be surrounded by some giant squid, giant octopus, or 20 sharks. Do open waters scare anyone else?

IF by learning, we learn there's always a lot more to learn, even unlearn, we never stop learning, so we can never conclude on anything...what is knowledge then, that we know nothing, ignorance? How can this be?

I know nothing except the fact of my ignorance....Socrates.
