On gerbabooee: Yes, all four aspects overlaps in some areas, like as if they are mathematical sets. But wisdom means investing a very high focus on which one?

Or if its totally a different aspect, or a combination of these aspects, suggest which.

On gerbabooee (once more): Maturity is a character trait as well as a mode of thinking.

On Jennifer J: Logic and faith cannot go together. As long as people believe in linear science, there will always be miracles.

Wisdom is inborn. It takes wisdom to interpolate from logic, it takes wisdom to learn from mistakes made on the way to maturity, and it takes wisdom to SEE the values hypothesized in philosophy and faith.
There are wise 5-year-olds ---and fools of ALL ages, faiths, and practitioners of logic and philosophy.

I would think that the question is problematic and as such can't be properly answered. Logic is a part of philosophy. And faith plays a role in many metaphysical types of philosophy. Maturity is a character trait whereas the other options you present are not. I think you need to look at this question and ask it again. One can use philosophical theories, logic, his or her own life's experiences gleaned through the process of maturation and faith in certain unprovable principles or notions to become, act or be wise. Wisdom is not simply based on one aspect of your question or another.

Nah None, Other

Logic: is it wise to use in every wise act?.. is thinking ABOUT logic in second-order languages and metalogical dealings un-wise?

Maturity: No. No. No. A child is far more wise than the quagmire of old man and his submission to things-as-they-are. Commonsense is the end of wisdom.

Philosophy: as a cannon is Mostly steeped in the religion of Plato. And leads to more terribleness and contradictions than God could have wrought. Philosophy as friend of the wise... is that exclusive friendm like an answerer here who answers in appeal to the questioner. Aristotle was trying philosophy, he was trying to reveal instead of conceal the world. But this activity is rare and far from the point of most philosophy.

Fatih: Fúck No.

In effect, wtf is wisdom? Is it what a priest of philosophy is going to tell you... the careful and meticulous mind of reason? There is an edge and a going-beyond that is not accounted for in this picture. The artful continuum of uncovering and amazement is not something RESTRICTED to the process of reason alone. The fact of reason relies on poesis and mythos, metaphor, the transcendant. I will not bear this talk of facts qua wisdom. There are no such absolute things.

I have a theory that the mind is divided into five parts: Knowledge, the ability to know individual facts; Wisdom, the ability to put those facts together and eventually learn something through not-so-common-anymore sense; Faith, the ability to think something that has not been proven; Imagination, the ability to create; and Individuality, the ability to form opinions. Wisdom, according to my theory, is mostly related to logic, and it comes easier with maturity.

Wisdom is the ability to take all the facts at your disposal, and make sense out of them.

Wisdom comes with age, maturity, simply because you have more facts. You know more.

A fool at 20 is still a fool at 80, just older.

A wise man at 20 is simply waiting to get older and learn more facts...

Wisdom transcends logic and faith too. It is based on maturity in philosophy.

Wisdom comes with maturity to most and is based on all of the above.

None of the above. Wisdom is often illogical; it knows no age; it cannot be discussed philosophically; and no faith can give it. Wisdom is based on experience, nothing else.

Wisdom is based on knowledge. The quality of being wise. Learning, erudition. Wise teaching, wise saying, wise action.

2006-06-11 16:35:53 · answer #9 · answered by laughsall 4 · 0 0

It is neither, Wisdom is indefinable, and what one may call wise another will call foolish. To me, wisdom is being able to make sense of chaos, and to see through veneers to the truth. But what wisdom is to another will be completely different.
