[quote][b]One:[/b] Whenever you go outside at night and you look up at the stars, your everyday life pales into insignificance and you are in awe.

[b]Seven:[/b] Everyday, multiple times a day, you wonder about what we’re all doing here.
[b]Eight:[/b] Your dream job is to be paid to think your own thoughts.[/quote]
I find it somewhat flattering that pretty much all of those things apply to me, but I wouldn't go insofar as calling myself a philosopher.

Aside from six, the list should be titled "[Seven] Signs You Have A Functioning Brain."

1 ответYou're flattered from a simple list found on the internet? Sounds more like self appraisal to me. Also, a few "requirements" on the list are BS and purely subjective and not definitive of a philosopher, nor required.
-
22 отв.According to number three, a philosopher cannot be atheist.
-
This thread is almost as pretentious as a Libertarian or Communist social event.
-
All of these apply except for 6. I don't agree with forcing someone to be philosophical as much as I agree as being forced to learn and practice a religion.
-
Six I no agree with, but the rest I do.

[i]Why?[/i]
-
3 отв.Philosophers are probably the least relevant and most useless people in modern society.
-
1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 7 apply to me
-
5 отв.[b]Nine[/b]: You say "Philosopher's Stone" instead of "Sorcerer's stone".

Изменено (Winters Darkseid): 9/26/2013 9:37:05 PMEverything applies except last part of 6, and 8, depending on what my dream entails. It's a constantly changing, evolving thing.
-
All of them apart from 6 apply. Philosophy is most definitely not the most important subject.
-
1,2,3,4,7 and the first half of 6 apply to me. I don't think it's top priority though.
-
2 отв.That was so pretentious I physically cringed
-
Yes to all eight. Though in regards to number five, I am failing that quest horribly.
-
All it takes to be a philosopher in my book is the will to question yourself and the world you live in.
-
9: you don't shitpost on bungie
-
Yep to all of those. Not surprising though, considering I've chosen to learn it for 5 years straight (not that it'll stop after that).
