Question by Darzak: What persons do we need the most?
Hi, what kind of “smart” people do we need the most? Philosophers, or scientists? We need both of them in our modern society, but what is the most important? This is an question i always wanted 2 ask. When i think of Philosophers, i think of wisdom. When i think of scientists, i think of knowledge and intelligence. Also, i think that scientists are more book smart. What do you guys think?

Answer by yyyyzz (wise)
Every person you meet, you need. Those you meet for a short time have a short message to deliver and those you know for longer a longer or more complicated lesson. Thus, a scientists needs to be a philosopher and a philosopher needs to be a scientist. The good once that get paid fortunes and are a service to human kind are usually both. Somewhere in the thinking there must be an experiment that can proof or disproof the thought. Scientist don’t do experiments just for the sake of doing experiments, it must substantiate a philosophical thought.
Peace.

Question by Original Resonance: Is Cow Marks the most overrated philosopher in modern history?

Quite on the contrary, I think his theories and ideas resonated with most people. You don’t need to be educated nor intelligent to absorb his ideology as your own. That was why he was so popular with the lowly proles. His philosophical ideal is simply to make society a “better” place. Which is fallacious and delusional if you ask me. There is no such thing as society. There is only geography. Why should I indiscriminately care for a faceless arbitrary entity? If we have a duty to each other in society, then should a law-biding citizen pay for the sins of the law-breaking citizen? Socialism is an aberration from human empathy. And empathy is a vestige of the past. Humans evolve to feel the pain of each other because this skill is vital for the survival of individuals. We need to anticipate how others feel in order to exploit them. It was never about sacrificing for others. But of course, humans are not always rational.
We don’t always behave purposefully towards any teleology of any kind. For example, sex is for reproduction. And yet modern humans have no qualms practising protected sex for sex’s sake. Similarly, when we cry over the misfortunes of others, or sacrifice our lives to save a stranger in distress, we are making rational choices. If socialists/marxists argue that irrationality is good, then I wouldn’t have objected. But they are asserting that helping others for helping’s sake is self-evidently justified. How so, if I may ask?
Correction: Similarly, when we cry over the misfortunes of others, or sacrifice our lives to save a stranger in distress, we are NOT making rational choices.
