First Philosophy Blog

Well, here goes...

I think these blogs are going to be a random string of thoughts... lets hope they are coherant enough (i am also not that good of a speller, so please dont make fun)


So, philosophy is the search for the truth. How do we really know what the truth is when we find it? How can we know the truth it the "truth" is constantly changing? Years ago people thought the world was flat... that was their truth. Now we know the earth is round and that is our truth. But the truth has changed, flat to round is a great deal of change. Its a tough think to grasp, at least for me. I like to know what is true, but what i think is true could be an untruth. "Never believe anything that anyone tells you until you have tested it for yourself and know it to be true" I believe thats some of the best life advice i have ever gotten.

Can there ever be one philisophical truth? There always seems to be a philosophy contradicting someone elses philosophy.
"All I know is that I think." If thats all i KNOW... thats frightening, but maybe im making up this computer, this room, maybe nobody actualy reads this, but i just make up people that read this blog. Thoughts like that make my head hurt because until i die, and maybe not even then, i will never know if there is even a "reality" or if its just my own litle world and everyone else is just constructed as i walk past them.

ok... thats enough
