The unofficial group blog of some philosophy graduate students at the university of michigan. Hunger-Striking and Ideal Judges. As some of you know, I have been on hunger-strike this week as a small token of solidarity with the detainees held without trial at the Guantanamo Bay Detention Camp.

Sweet As in, who dumped sugar in my water? Smelled foo...

The Virtues of Unintuitive Philosophy | On Philosophy
https://onphilosophy.wordpress.com/2009/07/01/the-virtues-of-unintuitive-philosophy
July 1, 2009. The Virtues of Unintuitive Philosophy. 8212; Peter @ 3:38 am. It is commonly thought that being intuitive, or agreeing with common sense, is a virtue in a philosophical theory. But the opposite is really the case. Philosophy that is intuitive is rarely worth reading; we are only bettered by philosophy that strikes us initially as unintuitive. Is this the death of intuition and common sense as a standard for philosophy? Is it not possible to be consistently mistaken? My unreflective intuitio...

Beyond Sense and Nonsense | On Philosophy

June 5, 2009. Beyond Sense and Nonsense. 8212; Peter @ 11:34 pm. Personally I am an advocate of the idea that the universe is essentially a meaningless place, onto which we impose meaning.

Contrary to what you might think, a blog about philosophy. Writings That I’ve Written. A Note on Beauty. I’ve Moved →. A Theory of Moral Diffusion. September 20, 2008. Does the morality of society,. It would be extremely naïve to answer with a straightforward “yes”: the 20. Or is humanity doomed,. By its very nature. To stay at roughly the same moral level? Eat each other a sign of immense disrespect to the gods. Better, or is it merely a choice of convenience? Perhaps these are not mutually exclusive?
