Some Philosophical Questions... Or are they?

CactusmanXCactusmanX Member Posts: 2,218
in Off-Topic Discussion

Just some philosophical questions.  No debate, just answers.  I am interested to see all the different answers people give.  These are overly simplistic, which is intended,  just go with your first reaction.

Fill in the blank

1.  The meaning of life is...

2.  Morality is...

The next ones are yes/no/other

3.  There is a reality that exists beyond what we observe with our five senses

4.  The self exists beyond or seperate from our physical bodies (whatever you call the self)

5.  We have freewill

6.  Good and Evil exists objectively (meaning it is absolutly definable i.e. NOT an opinion)

 

Yeah I know, looks like a test, but there are no right/wrong answers.

 

Don't you worry little buddy. You're dealing with a man of honor. However, honor requires a higher percentage of profit

    1.  There is no meaning to life.

    2.  Morality is subjective and therefore an opinion.

    3.  No.

    4.  No, we are our bodies our bodies are us. :)

    5.  No, in short we are computers that act accordingly to internal equations, we don't think just compute.

    6.  No, good and evil are opinions, one persons good is anothers evil, all relative.

    1. To learn, expand your mind, KNOW.

    2. What guides me to be who/what I am

    3. Yes

    4.  Yes

    5. Yes

    6. Yes

    Those are my answers.  Are they correct?   Did I win?

    No required quests! And if I decide I want to be an assassin-cartographer-dancer-pastry chef who lives only to stalk and kill interior decorators, then that's who I want to be, even if it takes me four years to max all the skills and everyone else thinks I'm freaking nuts. -Madimorga-

    1    meaning is a leaning...  When life is meaningful we are full of leaning, engagement, and commitment.  When life is meaningless, it is leaningless.  At such times we are unwilling or unable even to lean toward someone or something other than ourselves.    Meaning comes from spiritual, ego-free union with life. The more we lean selflessly into be-ing as it is gifted to us in the course of everyday living--tending toward or into the gifts--the more meaningful our life becomes.

     



    2 Morality describes the principles that govern our behavior. Without these principles in place, societies cannot survive for long. In today's world, morality is frequently thought of as belonging to a particular religious point of view, but by definition, we see that this is not the case. Everyone adheres to a moral doctrine of some kind.

    3 Damm right

    4 Damm right

    5 Freewill gives a reason for their to be a record kept of our behavor

    6  Damm right

    Their can only be one

    Trade in material assumptions for spiritual facts and make permanent progress.

    4. No.

    Heres a reply from an actual Philosopher.
     These are overly simplistic, which is intended,  just go with your first reaction.
    R: Good,  you noticed.
    Fill in the blank
    1.  The meaning of life is...
    A: The pursual of the most amount of sustainable pleasure one can achieve.
    2.  Morality is... 
    A: Rules for the above.
    The next ones are yes/no/other
    3.  There is a reality that exists beyond what we observe with our five senses
    A:  We could'nt say that there was and we could'nt know that there was, thats not a no, just that we could never beleive there was and if it did exist  from the perspective of another being it would still be of completely no relevence to us what so ever. This is assuming you mean it could not be perceived by us, we do have more than 5 senses by the way.
    4.  The self exists beyond or seperate from our physical bodies (whatever you call the self)
    A: Not as far as i know.
    5.  We have freewill
    A: Not in a typical way,  the universe is best understood as determanistic, we do have power and abilities, some have more than others.
    6.  Good and Evil exists objectively (meaning it is absoluetly definable i.e. NOT an opinion)
     A: Good and Bad exist , the stupid and the romantic belive there is evil.
    Yeah I know, looks like a test, but there are no right/wrong answers.
    R:  Yes there are.

    1.  The meaning of life is...
    Life is a never-ending continuation of the cell-cycle of birth, reproduction, and self destruction.  The meaning of life is to live and ultimately die.
    2.  Morality is...
    An abstract concept developed by humans and other social animals as an evolutionary "glue" for keeping society intact...something very important for any social animal.
    The next ones are yes/no/other
    3.  There is a reality that exists beyond what we observe with our five senses
    Yes.  (Our five sense are only able to detect visible light in the electromagnetic spectrum...yet we know X-rays and Infrared light exists)
    4.  The self exists beyond or seperate from our physical bodies (whatever you call the self)
    No. (We are our brains)
    5.  We have freewill
    Yes.  (But it is heavily influenced by instinct even when we don't realize it...nor is it a divine gift)
    6.  Good and Evil exists objectively (meaning it is absolutly definable i.e. NOT an opinion)
    No.

    1. ... whatever you make it.
    2. ... complex but still set in stone.
    3. Yes. Some forms of radiation for example.
    4. Perhaps.
    5. Yes. But as we are confined to cause and effect free will is governed by cause and effect.
    6. Yes. But see #2.
