Hey all!

I'm an undergraduate studying Philosophy both in my spare time and in various classes at a college in the United States. I've been interested in the subject for about...8 years, now.

I've often been brought to the realization that philosophy is boring and dead (to me) if it's just a dead letter, a reading of text after text and argument after argument. Only in dialectic, in conversation, in interaction with other people does it become really alive for me. So, here I am.

Anybody have an answer to Hume's "is-ought" problem? LOL :Glasses:

Reading the thinkers from the splendid history of philosophy might be boring, but it helps one to think and to be able to discuss positions from a philosophical point of view. Western philosophy began with Socrates's walking with his friends and discussing philosophy, and his student Plato retained this dialog form throughout his writings.
The philosophic dialogue seems to define the goal of these forums, so I am confident you will be an active participant.
Cheers,
John
