Philosophy - November 2007

Could you please give me a justification, brief if you want, but preferably detailed, of the ontological necessity of modern man's existential dilemma?

Thank you.

That you could do with a degree in either philosophy or literature? I really enjoy reading old and new literature, and plan to be a writer; but what other jobs could you aquire with such a degree?

I don't understand this please help!!.....

Well, the teleological argument is about God being the designer of the Uinverse ect.... then why do people like atheists agree with the idea of Evolution? I understand why people would agree with the Big bang theory because it has scientific evidence, but does evolution??- how can something like an eye evolve??


Please explain to me why people like the theory of Evolution rather than the teleological argument.


Thanks x

So would that mean some where in the universe between timelines there are other versions of ourselves out there makeing their own decisions and following completely different paths? What would your alternate world look like if you made just one different decision?

Some think it is being book smart, however some merely believe it is being smart in understanding interpretations of others. Or is it a combination of both? And do you need to work more than you play to be clever? What would be the outcome of being clever?

I'd like your opinions please.

Thank you

Life is the rarest thing in our universe. Doesn't that make it worth defending? Is it not also apparent, that we are the only species on earth capable of protecting and nurturing all the other species of our planet?
Why then, do we continue to consume and produce, at the cost of our world, at an exponential rate? Why is this happening?

If you see a man/woman who is the sexiest darned thing in the world, and they are pretty nice, are they beautiful? Or if you see a man/woman who is not all that attractive opening their heart and trying to make other people happy, are they beautiful?

got revenge on this guy. I destroyed his property. I ruined his finances. Made the love of his life leave him. I tricked him. I hired an accomplice to help me out and even got some of his misery/break down on video. He knew I did it and confronted me. I laughed but I didn't admit what I did. Does that make a coward and why did it feel good keeping it from him even though he knew I did it?

Should I confess or keep it inside and keep laughing at his misery? He's really angry, do you think he will get me back? A friend told me that he said I 'had mine coming?' Also, is it good or bad karma when you take revenge into your own hands? There were rumors going around that he wants me dead now. He isnt one of those little harmless guys, hes pretty powerful but I had to take my revenge, should I be worried?
