They have feelings too ya know. Who are these tyrants killing their own creations and trying to put the blame on others? Oh, wait though... First I should look at myself before pointing to others. Do I do it too sometimes? I suppose it's a hard pitfall to avoid, but wait there's hope.
What is logic and who needs it? If the Dadaists didn't then why do I? Why don't they teach it in these schools?
When I went to University one of the first classes I had was The History of Western Thought, and about half way through that course we had a class entirely devoted to logic. That was revolutionary for me. My research papers were graded on how well I could establish and defend my position, not on whether I agreed with my professor.
Yoda said one of the funniest things I've ever heard about Straw Men.
So many times it comes up, well every debate on here pretty much. I thought it would be cool if we had a thread devoted to understanding more about logic.
I just googled logic, and I think it explains a lot. I scrolled for a bit seeing nothing whatsoever about logic, but instead all sorts of rap music, merchandise, and twitter accounts. Why does the world disregard logic so much? Doesn't everyone need it to formulate a thought? It's so fundamental yet so few use it or bother to learn anything about it. They argue endlessly for decades when so much could be avoided with a few hours of reading.
I often wonder if there's any hope for the human race.
Why, just the other day an aquaintance of mine said philosophy is the root of all human understanding, but it isn't fundamental to life. I thought that so bizarre. I don't understand these illogical minds, but I have to remember, I too once knew nothing of logic.
There's a verse in the book of Proverbs. Wisdom makes knowledge acceptable. So I think we need to be patient and help each other understand.
So, MoFo's I ask you, why the sensless slaughter of so many young ambitious straw men?

So many good young straw men slaughtered in this thread. Cut down in their primes.
