"To study and not think is a waste. To think and not study is dangerous."
-Confucius

I have searched for a good forum where people discuss about philosophy. I have already tried 3 different places and now I'll be watching and writing for you guys. Hopefully there will be no boredom, where this young man is wandering.

Studying is pleasure for us all: at least it should be. My enemies are those who seek answers and knowledge without books, including myself, of course Smile.

I like reading about many things but sometimes I'm so laze that books are left without use. By writing and being here, I'm trying to improve my English. So, the forum writing is also on my studying program.

I greet you.

@The Start Online,
I doubt that you will be bored here, although not every thread is a learned discussion of philosophical texts (to put it mildly), and this due partly to the nature of posting in forums as well as the many levels of philosophical learning here (as indeed in life).

Certainly you are to be commended for wanting to improve your use of English to communicate philosophical thoughts, especially since it is difficult enough in one's own native language. Writing, and being forced to set down your thoughts in the best, clearest, and most precise manner, is an excellent way to 'do philosophy.'

What you will appreciate, I think, is the common courtesy and good-natured attitude the members of this forum extend to one another. Everyone here will, if you but ask, attempt to help you through your problems with English as best they can.
A very warm welcome to the Philforum,
Regards,
John
