there are no good or bad creatures; only creatures doing as creatures do, similar to how a chair does chair things because it is a chair.
that's very deep and thoughtful for a 12 year old, nice job
>>84438155Okay but can you describe a chair
>>84438166the creature is not biologically 12, but is of similar intelligence
>>84438155bwc slut yigfhy
>>84438155Can I hear another passage from Middle School Philosophy Vol. 2?
>>84438178the creature believes it to be an object designed to be sat in by persons.>>84438193the creature has heard god is dead, and human creatures killed it.
>>84438155isn't it something to be proud of when a biological creature like a human, after all of it's evolutions, can actually decide to go against it's instincts and change for the better? for example a man is easily turned feral when exposed to female genitals/pheromones etc, so for him not to act on those urges like a dog infront of a steak dinner, shouldn't that behavior be noted as good?tldr; i'm an ex- porn addict and now i actively avoid all sexual things. i feel enlightened.
>>84438216is a program that does not execute as made to, enlightenedthe creature wonders this about itself as well
>>84438244this bitch calling me a creature
>>84438261is the other creature sure it is not creature
>>84438155What kind of creature are you?
>>84438155this is one of the themes of taoism, and one of the reasons why i believe in it. people are all so desperate to become somebody they arent
i wanna sniff this creature's butt is that okay with you OP? >:3
>>84438291the creature does not knowthe creature is just a creature, and is not of sufficient complexity to define itself further>>84438295the creature wonders; what is tao>>84438307the creature is an unsexual object
>>84438339>the creature wonders; what is taotao is everything it is reality. of one substance but many forms
>>84438339that's okay just stand there and continue on, i'll do all the sniffing nhghh
>>84438178A piece of furniture created for the purpose of sitting on. It has legs and a back, but these are subject to change depending on the use case of the chair.
>>84438342the creature wonders why is tao>>84438357the creature does not care
>>84438465good creatureee unfff...
>>84438155Have you ever read Hegel's Phenomenology of Mind?
>>84438155That's true. It doesn't mean you have to keep naughty creatures or uncomfortable chairs in your house tho.>>84438295>tao-ie pow-ie anonAre you me?
>>84438678>Are you me?all is one
>>84438207>God is deadYes, Nietzsche is not wrong in this point. But i think, God killed himself and that means he is neither alive nor dead. He is dead, and that's it. He is not going to return or something.>>84438696>All is oneYeah, but probably not like i think you are implying. It is not some kind of undifferentiated sameness. The Universe needs to be not itself in some point, to be itself.
>>84438295> people are so desperate to become somebody they arentNo, i think that's not the case, but it's a little bit more complicated. People really are the way they want to be; there is no "other" in themselves. That what can be called "the other" is society. Because people are influenced by each other, and their identity can be sold to them like a product, but i am not developing this thought further.I think OP has a wonderful way of expressing this "self but not-self"; they refer to themselves as "creature", with the mask (or however you want to call it, the appearance or phenomenon) of Rika Furude.
