There is an unsatisfied need for a reasonable and constructive argument within me.
That doesn't mean I just need to fight.
I like constructive argument, because they let you see into how others think.
Just as Sokrates was disputing with people, trying to prove them that they are stupid,
In a similar matter I converse with people about matters in which I have a comprehensive opinion.
I need to hear their view.
I need to empathize.
I need to understand them.
And don't you think that reference of Sokrates was purely coincidental.
I agree with majority of his notions.
He was very post-modern in some aspects.
And as a real philosopher should, he had the seed of doubt planted deep within him.
Not like baroque philosophers who were so convinced of their impeccability that they stood up for their ideas even if they've already proven false. Just because a philosopher shouldn't deny himself.
That's not true. Philosopher should deny himself. He should evolve. And that is pretty much a basic requirements for evolving, isn't it?
