No I'm not saying that Sartre is the only philosopher worth. Damn followups. I was just suggesting something to empiricus he maybe would be interested in. The whole nausea of existence etc.... Just relax buddy.

why was my reply worthless??
i was simply stating an opinion! why does it piss you off man?
i didn't feel i had to go on for ages explaining why.. but i will now because obviously you are trying to make a fooll out of me or something wich i still don't understand why... and if you know is "work" well, you would have got mylittle hints in the pevious post.
don't you agree it's hell to talk about stuff like this one here? i find it hard ...
and why the presumptuous : " there's no point in continuing discussion with you on this subject on any level. "
fuck i still don't get my mistake.... i guess it's best not say what you think of someone without backing it up, wich i can agree. it's just that for this case it can be long and really needs a conversation...
peace earthleakage? i mean't no harm. fuck i just don't like him. :)

"Maybe you would like to learn what the word essence means?"
ill explain it to you silly man. Man first of all exists, encounters himself, surges up in the world — and defines himself afterwards. If man as the existentialist sees him is not definable, it is because to begin with he is nothing. He will not be anything until later, and then he will be what he makes of himself. Thus, there is no human nature, because there is no God to have a conception of it. Man simply is. So "existence precedes essence"
what a fucking idiot

You are regurgitating Sartre to me. I was trying to see whether you were capable of thinking for yourself. Obviously not.
In terms of existentialism I disagree strongly with Sartre's view that there is no such thing as human nature. But you are entitled to beleive everything you read if that's what you choose.
I find it quite sad the ease with which you resort to personal insults though.

He was great though. I always thought of ways I would argue against him if I ever had the chance to meet him. The whole devils advocate thing is something I really enjoy. Even if I am in agreement with the other people I will still argue just to find out exactly what they really think beause it all comes out in the end :D

i would say that animals are different than humans in that humans have the possibility of being artistic or creative in unnecessary ways and seem to have much more of an ability to understand and compare themselves to the rest of the animal kingdom because we have the knowledge of and more of a means of communicating. humans are more able to feel empathy towards other species. animals mainly are only "empathetic" to their own kind, or appear as such to other species in symbiotic relationships. animals seem to ruthlessly kill without a possibility of consideration to, or actual rational understanding of their prey. i can't imagine a cat understanding that when it is brutally killing a mouse, it can feel pain much alike their own..and i can't imagine the cat regarding the mouse as any more intelligent or more able to feel than the average bowl of "cat chow". the cat may prefer food with a beating heart, but i don't think that's an effect of them being deliberately cruel, it's just the way they perceive and fit into the world. humans can understand themselves in a way much different than the majority of other animals, and maybe that is their niche, in some fucked-up way. even if everything is "random", in that it wasn't created by an all-knowing or eternal force of some kind, man still gained it's differentiating intelligence through the same process that fine-tuned everything that we can experience.
in my opinion, or belief, i feel there very well could be some type of underlying force or "point" to it all. it seems very strange and illogical that everything we know just came out of emptiness, and its only point is to run its course and be destroyed, and then possibly run through the same cycle again. it seems like it would be much easier for there to be just nothing.. no matter or energy.. or for it to not need to create something out of itself. it seems like the idea of existence comes from something akin to the human mind.
these are just my thoughts/opinions. i can't prove or disprove anythi

i am intruiged by the inherant desperation of a human to project his subjectivity upon others, moreso the variance of the different levels of desperation. the nature/nurture, the athiesm & nilhism, there are so many areas that one individual can never comprehend never mind discuss in detail. at some point you MUST choose something over something else however despearate you are to want to feel neutral or in my own personal vocabulary "zentastic" ;)

Albert Camus said the only real philosphical question was the question of suicide. Why continue to live an absurd existence, a life in which the world we are confronted with offers us no meaning? Why do we suffer and voluntarily continue to suffer?

empiricus:
Am I the only one who is utterly perplexed by myself and the world that surrounds me??
me too, sometimes it scares me. its a strange emotion im feeling. i do not intend to kill myself to stop the nonsense. it seems that everyone dies. you cannot tell for sure what happens when one dies, so ill stick to living for now. while im alive, why not make the best of it, altough everything is so strange
hell, i might be a bunch of code lines in a computer.. or this might all be a dream created for the purpose of entertaining yourself.. like a machine that lets you live a life in a second or sumthin.

..and he probably took it back at some point, like he he does.
i really don't want earthleakage to have a go at me again, i just find Sartre never could stick to something.... drifting from dogma to dogma he then decided he was a "total intellectual".... hard to take him seriously for me as he seemed to be always discrediting his previous stuff, giving himself excuses but also stating that he is a lot "better" now...
i don't really "dig", but it's only my opinion.
"je fait tout mal... mais je fait tout!"
please excuse my shit views . maybe i should be banned.

maybe you should have said that to start with rather than just posting "satre is lame" in the middle of a debate about philososphy! it wasn't your view that offended me, it was the flippancy and the retardedness of just calling one of the most important philisophers "lame" and then just leaving it at that. please don't start to get defensive with me or i will crush your puny existence with my mighty hands!

I am a sensitive artist... I am a sensitive artist. Nobody understands me because I am so deep. In my work I make allusions to books that nobody else has read,
Music that nobody else has heard, And art that nobody else has seen. I can't help it Because I am so much more intelligent And well-rounded Than everyone who surrounds me. I stopped watching tv when I was six months old Because it was so boring and stupid And started reading books And going to recitals And art galleries. I don't go to recitals anymore Because my hearing is too sensitive And I don't go to art galleries anymore Because there are people there And I can't deal with people Because they don't understand me. I stay home Reading books that are beneath me, And working on my work, Which no one understands I am sensitive... I am a sensitive artist...
