Thus, I don't think it is appropriate to say that there is no need for philosophy and/or belief for humans. It is in fact a belief itself to say such a thing.


"If you meet Buddha, kill him" <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> - a sentence I like very much, specially when it deals with philosophy - not to actually kill a person, but never keep crouching at the feet of a teacher/religious leader/political leader for too long and give up individuality.

Just listen to what he has to say - and then move on = just taking what was said with yourself/myself and asking myself again, is it appropriate for me or not? We have too many sheep that's why we have leaders, too. I'm anarchist, remember?

and this is strictly subjective, too <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> - just my path I'm going, I'm not asking anyone to join it. Because what may be constructive for me may not be for someone else. And this is not my belief, just my XP (subjective XP again <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/winkwink.gif" alt="" /> )

I wasn't saying there is no need - I wanted to point out that philosophy/religion/belief excludes - and if someone chooses to take it up, she/he should be aware of this exclusion - don't turn my words around, Elgi. We've had that in German threads already and I don't like that.
