no one belives that no one has ever counted the number of colors shapes,
there are only sharp angles and circular angles, and staight edges, and colors, and they make thing for people to use or study what to do next for everyone they live around

Should man always benefit from science, even if the means used to obtain these benefits are questionable? At what point should man ignore questionable means, in favor for the benefit of a useful scientific gain?

For instance, we use terms like "masculinity," "justice" and "goodness," but these terms seem slippery. I also once took a course in the philosophy of art. We never did figure out the essence of art. Some say that art has no essence or that it cannot be define. Granted, somebody can propose a stipulative definition. Nevertheless, how does one define something without begging the question? Someone may suggest that we know what art is by means of the necessary and sufficient conditions that inform it. But those necessary and sufficient conditions seem debatable. Therefore, I believe that we often or always use language without really understanding what we're saying. It is amazing that communication occurs at all. However, communication only appears to occur because of arbitrary community determinations about what word means x or y.

Does an outsiders guidance from experience benefit, or just contribute to more confusion for the insider? Who really knows more about the situation?

Do you think that Socrates made the right decision to stay in Athens and obey the law? This meant that he would be sentenced to death for not giving up Philosophy.
But why stay?
Do you think he was right?
Could he of moved elsewhere and continued to pratice?.... but he didn't want to.
He could've obeyed the law and stayed alive... but that was hipocritical.
What do you think he should've done different?
Or do you agree with his choice?

I've been with my boyfriend for 1.5 years. I feel like we DID have alot of potential and love for one another. We also both were mature and had a good head on our shoulders. Well, his ex-g/f tried to break us up, and it's ruined our relationship, I've let my insecurities ruin our relationship. I made too big a deal out of it. Now trust isn't there, we're both more paranoid, even though we're entirely open with each other. The big one is, respect is gone. We used to highly respect each other, and now the things we say to each other now I could've never imagined EVER wanting to say that to each other. I used to feel like he was head over heels for me, but now it's so different. We used to have ALOT of fun together and brought out the best in one another, and now I feel like we just argue alot more, and don't really do anything. All we do is sit around and watch TV. I felt that our relationship had so much potential, but jealousy & immaturity has gotten the best of it. How do I fix it?

I know we still do have love for each other, but we've both become selfish and mean to each other. And I KNOW it's because I let jealousy into the relationship, it used to be an amazing relationship, but now we're very disrespectful towards each other. The ex g/f thing happened a year ago and I still get mad about it. How do I get our old relationship back, or is it doomed now? I KNOW we had alot of potential, but I think we're both turning into really selfish/bitter people because of our relationship.
