So naive the philosophers of the past, not to forgot the present; So frustrated by the naive in Earth&#8217;s Paradise, yet to their greatest torment, the cost of wisdom, the burden lays heavy in the philosophers mind. How long may they carry this frustration? How naive of the &#8216;wise&#8217; and &#8216;enlightened&#8217; those who swore they &#8216;saw&#8217;, those who &#8216;see&#8217; it all. How naive of them to condemn the naive&#8230; I am the one who love them the most.<\/p>\n<p>This concept of &#8216;intelligence&#8217; perhaps is not properly evolved. How exactly are you &#8216;intelligent&#8217;? You got high education? Mere &#8216;Good&#8217; education was achieved over many years, and small disruptions in envoriments put the whole &#8216;intelligence&#8217; at the face of existential terror. A whole &#8216;field&#8217; of knowledge, made irrevelant nearly overnight, and suddently the &#8216;intelligent&#8217; became the fool.<\/p>\n<p>This of course not to mean one should not seek knowledge. The issue of intelligence is that one need more that a singular pattern to recognize, majority of existence have complex interconnected webs of patterns. Each field specialize in a singular, and they are kept apart, bloated with empty fluff: such as moral and emotional appeals to apease those life is too &#8216;harsh&#8217; for.<\/p>\n<p>I do wonder, what makes you think you are &#8216;wise&#8217; and &#8216;intelligent&#8217;? We might even think we sound &#8216;intelligent&#8217; while we are percieved as stupid, often at the same time that we percieve the person we self speak to as stupid, they percieve us as the fool.<\/p>\n<p>The question, however is not: &#8220;How to become wise?&#8221; rather the question should be: &#8220;What is?&#8221; As what is the appeal? For example &#8220;Might makes Right&#8221; the most common claim is that &#8220;Strength dictates moral right.&#8221; But this is quite stupid, if we look at to what &#8216;right&#8217; actually mean. &#8216;Right&#8217; is simple as 1+1=2 so if 1+1=2 is &#8216;right&#8217; then what is &#8216;Right&#8217; &#8216;IS&#8217;. Then we need to figure out what the appeal actually is. Moral, Emotional or Logical?<\/p>\n<p>Most of human appeals will sway towards &#8216;Moral&#8217; and &#8216;Emotional&#8217; appeals, not daring to show their &#8216;Shadow&#8217;, too afraid to be condemned, yet they live in a lie, while claiming to be &#8216;genuine&#8217; such a tragic end. Perhaps we &#8216;real&#8217; philosophers don&#8217;t need the crutches such as the philosophers of the past and present. Too logical and Powerful for our own good. Who&#8217;s to go into insanity and madness first? And who of us will escape.. Alive?<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>O!
