What is wrong with the world? Why do people bring a gun to school and shoot schoolmates and professors? How did the world allow a person like the shooter develop to what he is? Why didn't anyone help him out of this crazy mess? There was this episode of CSI where passengers in the first-class cabin of a plane mobbed, beat and killed this guy who was being ultra irritating because he had a terrible headache. Absolutely irritating. After the CSIs found out what happened, they had a discussion of whether the passengers are justified in what they did. People were split both ways and Grissom said, if only someone asked if the guy was alright, if only someone tried to find out what was wrong with the guy, none of this would have happened. If only someone tried helping this shooter before he turned desperate, brilliant minds wouldn't need to be lost.
What is the point of philosophising without action? I think we're doing too much philosophising and not enough action. I wonder what life would be like if I try, say 1 philosopher's philosophy every month. Live exactly like what the philosopher thinks is the right way for humans to live. Could be pretty fun, great learning experience, but would be real tiring.
Really, I'm too busy moving through life to live it, understand it, feel it. Philosophy reading only makes sense when I need it. Right now I just feel bombarded, too much hum.
Why must humans always look upwards? Who decided that the goal of humanity is to improve and progress? What if we were made to be stagnant?
