Simbolic Animal

Firstable I think that we have to have clear this terms....
What Is an Animal? Well Animal is... something that live, feels, and have the characteristics of a live thing (irritability, metabolism etc)
I think that we dont know what exactly human is... is between god and animals. Our Principal Characteristic Is That We Think...We have rationality. I think That the most characteristic of the human is that we dont know about the real capacity that we have, dont know limits, "the only atonishment of the human is the human" i agree completely with this. and the human sometimes could be very irrational and make bad things the only thing that can destroy the human is the human i think . We can be considered like animals we evolutionate but i think that we are animals that think and talk. have a language. we are the only animal that eat without hungry, talks without something to say. i think that to be consider real humans we need to learn to use our capacities and for the god of the humanity.

Me Inside Me Out Side

What Happen If All That We Know About Life Or About everything, were just an illusion, just a dream?
All that we know will be false, absolutely all! If we were just dreaming and all that we see, we touch, we feel, we perceive were just caused because of the dream. So If we Thought like this....What It's The Reality? Where I am? Sleeping? But I Think That We Can dream or we can create an illusion just about things that we know. If We always be Dreaming it will be the same that if we never dream. And i think that if we always were dreaming we didn't know what dream is... and the dream will be our reality
And Another Theory That Descartes says....What if all were controlled by other else? And this person or "thing" always were controlled our reality, our thoughts and our lives.
And we are just living and seeing what this "genius" want us to see. But This next Point i think that it's very very interesting and very logic, If like Descartes says,, we are controlled by a genius or we always were dreaming whatever.. We have the Certainty that we exist, We have to exist and then we can dream, live and be controlled. this is very true. And then to be deceived we need to be.
this theme its very interesting because it invite us to analyze and think what reality is.
maybe its just a dream or a lie. We never know....

Symbolic Animal

The animals and the humans beings are different because of very important thing: Humans can think and use the reason to communicate and expressed what they want to say; also the humans are capable to see beyond everything this is very interesting because there is no other animal or being that can make that like us.

One of the most interesting things for me of the topic of the symbolic animal is that we are capable of create a language not just for our basic need but also to communicate everything even things that doesn’t exist or will never happen, just because we have the necessity of communicate even when we are not capable of this; like the girl of the video we watch during the class.

Something else that we are different from the animals is that we have the opportunity of give names to the objects and recognize them just with the given name.

Symbolic animal

Since thehuman reason exist the humans have tried to separate him from the beasts and get closer to the gods.

The humans overreact when somebody says that we are animals the perfect example is when Darwin says that we belong from the monkeys all the scietific community make fun of him and make cartoons like in the image.

The real think is that yes, we are animals but the think that make us different from they is our brain, our reason, our thinking. the animals only use the reason to satisfy their basic neccesitys, the humans too but we also create new neccesitys and we try to stisfy this new things too.

This s the real thing that make us different from the other animals or capacity to think and reason.

Me inside Me outside

Me inside and Me outside, are like two different ways of looking at life, that the outside is something completely different to what we are inside, that we pretend that we fully agree with everything that happens, but inside we are thinking anything but maybe we dare not say.
Then there are those who believe that only they can exist and that everything else is not real, a philosophy that is totally wrong that the very "I" can not be all that exists, it would be totally illogical to think that only There you can necessarily have to be more people, which may be equal to you, but with a very different way of thinking to yours,necessarily have to have a different philosophy to be identified to have a personality that is well defined and also serves to have an opinion of things that exist. In conclusion, we can all have different ways of looking at life, and necessarily have to have an opinion and a different philosophy to that of others.

keepin' it Real

Reality means that you live what you are right now, just right this moment, but what you think that is real might not be reality, is like if you were in a dream, a dream produced by your mind, meaning that you are not capable to see and understand that you are living in something that feels so close to reality.

This reality of "yours"might not be control by your mind at all, may be someone else is playing on you very tricky games, in a way that are so damn confuse to you and your mind that you dont realize and doesnt matter to you cause you think that what you are experience right is because you want it that way.

So before doing something think it twice cuz u might be dreaming and will experience unreal things.

My reality ???

What is reality?? this is simple to answer reality is what you are living right now this moment and all the expiriences that involved that is reality.

But what happen if i tell you that the thing that you call reality is not the real reality, is just an invention of your mind is your own world is only a dream, all the expiriences and all the people of this relity is an invention of yours, you crete it, you are like a kind of God, that way of thinking is vey confusing why if you make this world like a god why you are like the others and not like a god, you do it inconcient.

Another way of thinking can be that a person do this world and you and all the people are a part of it like in "matrix" you are living a kind of dream and your body is in one place and your mind is in other.

well you can think that this two thinking are absurd but think about it is sound irreal but can be real.

Myself

Myself
What got my attention about this topic is that for example everything could be just a dream or also be manipulated by someone else like in matrix, and everything we do isn’t real, honestly I can’t believe this because I say that we make our destiny and also because this is our reality even if it’s true or not this is what we think is real and all the things we perceive are part of that and that make us sure that we are alive and that we exist, we used all the feelings and situations are the ones that say that we exist.

Reason

i think that we always want to know more about life, always want to answers the questions, and learn more about life.
But we will never have questions about something that we don't know or we don't know that exist. Because we don't know that.. "that thing" exist. We never can question about something that we don't have a minimum idea that "that thing" exist! We just can have Curious about something that we know or at least have a minimum idea of what its all about, Because we have seen it at least one time, or maybe other people talks about it, or say it to us.
Other things i know about it because i have studied at least one time in our lives, for example in geography, in Spanish. But how i know that everything that i know it's truth? i think that everything can make us have at least a little doubt.
i Think that everyone have their own truth or their own knowledge that its based in experiences, and something like that.
And i think that the truth and the reality can change depending of everyone, because we are not sure at all about the things, or about what happen around us, in our environment.

Me in, me Out

 Descartes said that is possible to be always living a dream. That may sound possible, but I like to believe, that what we live is real and not a dream. That everything I do, I do it because I want to, and no because its pre-destinated.

If we were living always on a dream, the things that we do like decisions, thoughts, likes, etc. wouldn't be real and maybe would have been chosen by a evil super man as suggested on Fernando Savater's book "The questions of life".

But this can't change the way we live our life, because, reality or not, we still do the things we do for the benefit of everyone, and if we start to think in that way, we may be stop thinking about how the world is contaminated, what animals are in extinction, or if there is a conscience at all.

Reason

The reason

Our beliefs are the ones that make us act or think about something in one way or another and the reason helps a lot to find out the truth because we have to use it in order to have the answers that are closest to the TRUTH.

The skeptics are the one that don’t believe in the reason I think they are in a completely mistake because apart from the contradiction of their premises they say the reason it’s not viable, this is wrong because we need it; even if you don’t want to, you use every day.

The reason it’s something we must improve by asking ourselves our doubts and trying to find the Truth

The reason

The reason what can be the reason? well the reason can be what you belive about something.

But also there are other different reason from yours everybody have a different reason a diffrent truth a different point of view of the reality.But the reason can also be universal (a point of view that everybody shares), the same reality.

Reason is so important because is the way that you think you express to the others you try to say and share your own reason your personal point of view of the things.

The reason is also so extrange and difficult to undertand because everybody is gongi to try to make their point of view the rigthful, and that is gong to make a total mess in the mind .

So reason can be your truth, no the others truth, your truth what you belive and what you think about the things that happend around you that is going to be reason

Why the reason?

Why the reason?
Why talk of reason if we have it all, maybe this is what some people say or think about the issue of reason. And it is true that all use of reason, that's why we say that we reason, for example when we want to explain something to someone and explain it to ourselves, must always be a reason. The reason is probably a synonym for what is the truth, the two are related because they can be real things, and say they can, because there are truths that are false and that no one really can have an absolute truth that There is always someone who does not believe in a certain way that really engages with people who are skeptical as these say absolutely nothing is true, but on the other hand there are the people who believe that if something has already been proven totally truth and are content only with the truth that they heard, and are left without more research. It is important that we not only were unhappy with what they tell us it is also important that we ourselves plundered our own conclusions. In conclusion I think we can all have our own opinion or our own truth on any topic, and always have our own truth is that reason.

The Reason

When we talk about if something is true, we have to analize it very carefully, because it may be true for you, but not to other people. For example, when you say you believe in God, a muslim may come and tell you that what you are saying is a lie. He can say that Alah is the one that exists and only Alah.

That is why we have to use the reason to analize the truth and to think about when we can talk about something you believe, because someone may get offended or insulted. We have to be smart on what we talk and that is why we use reason.

Using the reason is like having a power, and like the comics says, with a great power, comes great responsability. We can't use the reason in order to impose ourselves to another way of thinking.

My Death?

Firstable.. Do you ever though what is death?
what is the death of an animal? or of plant?
almost all of the people don't care about the death of an animal or of plant or of something that is not important in their interests or goals.
But What happens when someone that we love die?
we cry..we have something similar of and empty space into our thoughts or our mind... we feel a really big pain.. we don't know how to realize that
our friend...our grandma or someone very close to us it's not anymore with us... in our life..in our world..he is not with us.. we only want to have him close to us. Now that we know what does it feels when someone or something dies, what happen if i start to think that i'm going to die..someday.. its not a question or a supposition, its a fact someday i'm going to die, im not going to feel that someone dies..
i'm going to die.. me.. just me.. no one can take my place.. no one can rescue me of a sure death....
i don't know how, i don't know when, i don't know where... im only know that im going to die.. in my personal point of view im afraid, maybe because i don't know that if im going to feel pain, or if im going to die slepping, or if someone kills me, im afraid of that. But the thing that im afraid the most is all the the things that im gonna miss, all the things that im not going to see.
Ok....you die.. and.....? What's Next? well that's another mistery for me, for all people but in this moment it's just for me, because anyone have their own death, maybe they feel a different kind of fear or are afraid in a different way than me.. That's why i don't care the fear of an other person, because you cant feel the death of another people. everybody have that right... the right of death. allmost all people included me have a relief that it's religion, we have faith that help us to comfort our fears about death, that when i die im going to be with god, with all my family and people that died before me, but what we know about death, all what we know are based in hypothesis, we dont know anything about death. We will never know because you die and all the things that you were are gone, you were only one time, but you will never be you again.. you die.. you're finished! but meanwhile we have to enjoy the life, and wait patiently death.

Death

Death

Realize that we are about to die is something only the human beings have; that make us mortals, but what everyone is really afraid of is that we are unique and in the exact moment we die something that existed once and that never will exist again has gone; so that is the moments when we start thinking about another life, something that goes beyond this life and can make us still be us and “exist”.

Death is imminent and is always one step behind us that means that no matter what you do or how healthy you are, you could die at any moment.

Very deep inside us we just care about our destiny, we care about other people deaths but at the end, we just want to know about what is next for our person.
In my opinion this is something that is true but I also think that we shouldn’t live with fear just because we don’t know what is next or if it is really something next, maybe this is it and nothing more, that is why I think we should live this life with all our energy and do everything we want without hurting or affect the people’s respect and liberty.
