G Everyone has a philosophy by which they guide their lives!. It may just be that pizza and beer are all they need in life!. If they talk about it, they are philosophers!. if they study how we think, they are getting elevated!. If they seek other thoughts, they are students and if they actually hear what others say, they are rare!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

"hey there how's it going!?"

*thoughts: Oh man, I can't believe I actually asked a philosopher a simple question, now he's going to ramble on about social Darwinism and Plato's cave!.!.!.oh jeez I'm really not up for a lecture today!.*Www@QuestionHome@Com

A Philosopher is always regarded after his death!.in life time he/s is branded as mad!.A Philosophy student reads what he/s told but understood nothing!.So no reaction!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
