Philosophical Air Bags

The other day I was looking for something and stumbled upon an interesting web page.  It has nothing to do with what I was looking for, but thats besides the point.  While reckless philosophy can be enjoyable, like anything reckless, partaking of such ideological ventures can have its oil slicks.  Most people strive towards being an excellent driver, they avoid running over cats and other creatures, slamming into other cars and stop at red lights.  Some people however, pursue excellence in driving their car one notch below being totally out of control, like drifters for example.  The following paragraph is sort of like a piece of safety gear a drifter might wear to prevent serious damage to them self.   If a driver accidentally drifts across an oil slick, they will probably totally loose control of their already semi-out of control car.  Somehow, I think that will ruin a drivers fun, so, in the interest of keeping our reckless ventures fun, This air bag and other safety equipment is offered to anyone interested.

Philosophical Etiquette

It is not enough to prove that your own theory is true and reasonable. Other philosophers will have their theories and, no doubt, there will be disagreement.  Therefore, you must also show where and how other philosophers went wrong.

A true philosopher is in pursuit of truth.  Therefore, we don't get angry when other philosophers attempt to prove our theories are wrong. If I have made a mistake then you are doing me a great favor by pointing out the error of my ways.  If you refute a theory I've been working on for years, a theory I've staked my career on, then I should embrace and thank you rather than be devastated and angry.
