I Like Philosophy

It bothers me that philosophy isn't a core subject in school. Instead 'science' has taken it's place. Except it isn't even science... it is teachers telling people scientific theories as if they are true and telling people that the scientific method is infallible. It is sickening. Science is to philosophy (or the lack thereof) as christianity is to theism (or the lack thereof). That wasn't a great analogy since science should at least have a place, but it is essentially considered divine even though it is a flawed method.

I agree as well. It is damn hard to teach...but at the very least you could teach some of the core readings for those who would be able to pick it up. It is a power like no other. It is the world of Sir. Thomas Moore, Gandhi, Jesus, Lincoln, Jefferson....etc.
