Genius

Empiricist and rationalist are two very different type of philosophy, both have its flaws. For me personally I would chose empiricism over rationalism. Empiricism is far from perfect but it makes a lot more sense to me than rationalism does. To be empiricist you have to look deeper into things and not be so gullible, I sometimes just lay in bed by myself for hours just thinking. What most interest me is how wide the universe is and how absurd life can be. I would stay in bed and ask a bunch of…

Jerome Robbins was known as one of the great choreographers of all time, as a genius, as a friend to the rich and famous (and, indeed, “one of them”: He danced with Lauren Bacall at Truman Capote’s Black and White Ball), as one of the four closeted gay Jewish men who made West Side Story , as a person who enjoyed humiliating young male ballet dancers during rehearsals and referring to some of the female ones with the four-letter word that begins with a “c,” as an informer, and as co-founding…

Is our universe one complicated computer game with us being mere artificial intelligence made of ones and zeros? This is a strange question, one that I believe cannot be totally disproven or proven but what can we know no matter the answer? The philosopher Descartes wrestled with similar questions. He was concerned about the nature of our reality and more specifically the nature of our knowledge. (Descartes 166-167) He wanted to form a base for knowledge and a method to prove that what we know…

Elijah is the man who helps me prove my case, even if it is through terrorizing the world with his genius intellect and bomb skills. Elijah was on a hunt to find his heroic counterpart which turned out to be David, the unbreakable man.

He spend almost half of this life in creation of OED, yet he sat on the other side of the fence much longer than contributing those scores. A genius of his works through the eyes of scholar, oppositional, as an insane man with disability through an eyes of an average joe. Can you blame him for what he done or the amount of works he did in turning a new chapter in humans development? Dr.Minor,…

In the article “Is Polygamy Next?” the author William Baude used his own opinion and some justice’s opinion in this article about America marriage in 21 country.

“Shaw was a very great man indeed. The danger is that when all the froth and nonsense about his being a philosopher has died down (as it must) a reaction should set in and lead people to forget his real genius. He was a comedian, in his own time; of the very highest order … He was a humorist of the more intellectual kind, a master of satire, art and fantasy like Gilbert, Wilde and Aristophanes. In that class no one had more continuous vitality. He is also, in his prefaces, one of the great…
