To be a philosopher you need to talk like Uzique, so no.

Ahahaha.

Mitch you do not possess a modicum of intellectual ability, let alone enough to be a philosopher. You're being terribly reductionist about what a philosopher actually 'does'; you're simplying a huge area of human thought and knowledge into a crude teaching-equation. There's infinitely more to philosophy than this, and I don't expect you to even understand half of the fundamental concepts and elements.

Nothing personal, but teenage philosophers just don't happen. Copy and pasting arguments/thoughts from other web sources to 'create' BF2s discussion isn't quite on par with the works of Plato.

@ Teddy: Existentialism is awesome- what floats your boat? Legal Bentham-style utilitarianism? Spoonfed wank'er!

Mannnnnnn, I just don't have the patience to deal with philosophy. I can understand why some people would find it interesting but I'm just not that kind of person.

Legal Bentham-style utilitarianism

Mitch,
You have a world-view, and like any one that thinks about the world, it is in a state of becoming. That is--it often is in a state of change; evolving; accumulating; etc.

Everyone is a philosopher of sorts.

But i would like to get paid for my opinion.

Hmm cool. Maybe.
Still, what does a philospher teach in philosphy class, his personal opinion combined with the opinions of other philosophers?

What is the goal of a philosophy class? To be taught opinion or taught to think?

facepalm.

"you have no clue"

you fundamentally misunderstand what philosophy is.

Look at the greeks, if you already have boy lovers and go out and stroll on the streets in bathrobes then I can say that you are one .

But tbh I think that you are too young to say that you are, maybe you are aspiring to be one, but right now you are not one. Need to live more to have a more wide aspect of things.
