THE END




As you may know and as we hope for, this is the last post, but the most interesting one. We are going to talk about what everyone thinks and we will reach a group conclusion that will lead us to a very important agreement.

Lily:

What is philosophy for?

For nothing at all, it doesn't work for anything. Why do you want to know that you are going to die. Philosophers are people that doesn't have anything to do. Philosophy is very personal.

Saldaña:

what philosophy does is make you think. Many politicians doesn't know how to think properly for the people and that is why we are were we are. Maybe, philosophy should be thought since primary school. We really don't know what we do, we only do it because it makes us feel well.

Murillo:

Philosophy is just another course that we need to take in our school program, it doesn't make you any smarter that you were before, but it makes you think about what other people think of things. 

Maye:

I think philosophy is very personal. It depends on what each person thinks about something that makes them think about it. You may have your point of view, but other person can have a different one. Philosophy teaches you how to tolerate and acknowledge that.

Puente: 

Philosophy is a subject that you have to make but, once you analyze it deeply, you realize that is necesary to make you think.

Conclusion

What is the purpose of human life?

Make mistakes and learn from them, interact with the society that surround us, act like human beings.

Learn to know ourselves and be better people.

We have to enjoy it because we don't know if we have another life.

  • We think that we all have a purpose for being here.
  • Philosophy help us to think about the remaining topics in a deep way, an know that we are conscious of many more things.

Philosophy is a very personal topic, but it also help listen to other points of view because you may see things from other perspective.

Thanks to this class, Jacobo and the other classmates that made us have a good time in philosophy class

Time


Time is a very abstract term because you can have a meaning for it, but other person can have one very different from the one you have.

There is also something called time traveling, it is the idea of having the capacity to travel to the past or the future, but this has its pros and its cons. 

The positive side of it, is that we can clear any doubts that we have of our past, or of our future. It also can help people with diseases that have not a cure yet. But this is a little complicated if we analyze its cons. What would happen if a time machine ends in the wrong hands, the past would be altered making changes in the present. 

But that isn't the only problem. Imagine that you want to kill a very bad person in the past, lets say Hitler. you will have to travel to the nazi times to kill him right? Now, if you kill him, that would mean that in the present that you came from, he would not exist because you kill him before, making you not to have the impulse to travel to the past and kill him. That is called a paradox, and I'm not capable of predict if it is impossible to make one or what would happen if one takes place.

We need to be very careful in dealing with time!!!!

Time


Time is the pass of certain moments that affect us, so we can have something from the past the present and the future; people through the pass of the years has developed several methods to measure the time.

something that i found really interesting during was that we don't have a past or future it is a present past a present future, i find this like something true because all that happento us in the past is affecting us, also what we are doing right now is affecting our future.

The present it is really difficult to define the present because we can't touch or stop the now, the present is the smallest measure of time.

what i thik it is really important no matter what is that you have to live with all this tree measures (past, present and future) because they will help you for example to not make the same mistakes again or enjoy the present what are you linving and think about a future.

Time


What its time? Well i cant define it without give it examples with the same word.. Its the magnitude that human create to count the time? Well its very difficult to me explain time, but eventhough that we cant define it, we can see it, in the changes that happen in our environments and in ourselves, for example if something its over, and the changes that happen in our body like change of voice, change of size, wrinkles etc. the notion of time its inevitably linked with the movement of the world in general, the time its a essential item of the society because this is a very important tool of people to make contact with other people, without time i dont know what we would make... or how we would communicate with society. time its divided in past, present and future, the present i think that we never reach it, all moment ends and it turn to past, so where is the present?
i think that present dont exist in concrete because it only have a duration of the mimimum duration of the time, and the future we always think about it but it turn to present and then to past, i think that the only certain moment of life its the past, because we have the memories and the know that we live in that moment and what we did, the past its known but we can not change it, and the future its the unknowns moments that we can change, but we dont know about it, well i think that time its a very difficult topic to discuss because we can explaine what is it.

what Time is it?


Time is a relative thing, that serves to us as a measurement of how long does the things we do take to be done.but there has always exist something thatperturbs our lifes. and that is the future time, meaning what is it gonna be of us in ten more years, will be dead?, so this idea has transform our minds into looking forward to create some cheats and instead of predicting knowing what will be our future, by this i mean that human get the wack idea of creating a time machine, that make us travel to the future or past in order to change present and future. meaning that human in some way wants to destroy himself and everything he knows, but fortunetely we havent reached that kind of technology.
So whats left, we gotta stop wasting our time in silly and start enjoying our own life, leaving meaningless the word time and future

Beauty



All of us have one characteristic that make us equal but make us so differents at the same time, all of us have been ever felt pleasure and pain but not in the same way, because we have differents likes and not all we find it ugly, we have differents thoughts and minds. but Immanuel Kant says just that all that conserved and have form its beauty, Well im disagree with him i think that all people have their own preferences in every way and for every thing, And for example someone that have difficult to walk or to see because of an especial discapacity of some part of the body it doesnt mean that , the person loose their beauty and their dignity, or someone can think that , the person its very ugly but other else can say that , the person have nice eyes or something like that. or that person can have the beauty in other part of their body. I think that everything in the world its beauty in its own way, and theres beauty for all types of people, and the beauty its not only in the concretes objects , i consider that beauty its in everything of life and in the world, it could be just a moment, a song everything, and we all need to learn to appreciate it and indentify it.

Freedom


We all act in the world and we respond to the environment that we are living, and we can create, create is act in the world and from the things that already are in the world. i think that liberty is the possibility of decide about your options about an action, and we know about the consecuences, there is a very huge difference in what happened to me* for example when i was running and i fall or if i drop a glass i dont decide to do that action but it happened. what i did without consious somethings that i did just for inerce i dont know what exactly im doing. and the last one what i do because i want it. in this type of action i know what im doing and i know about my consecuences. liberty is act in base our wishes necessites and proyects. liberty is just do what i want and its not enough try to do what i want. But i think that we as humans that we are are delimitaded by a society that always is judge what we do or did, i think that we are not completely free, because we are desing to act for and with the other people, and i think that our fredom or liberty its over when the liberty of someone else begins. we are ruled by a society that make us that we keep our really wants for us , and dont tell anyone just to for fear of the opinion of the other people.
