RE: Philosophy is not for everyone

Philosophy showed me how to use my brain, how to engage in rational discussion, it showed me how advanced I am yet how I still remain an infant.

This is actually the right way to do philosophy. Philosophy is not getting stuck with one school of thinking because there are plenty, and that's my friend is one of the biggest problems with philosophy nowadays it seems everything was reduced only to two sides, Frankfurt's philosophy and Austrian philosophy... once again the same struggle of the 20th century when in fact there are more things they both miss.

Philosophy can be exercised for everyone but not everyone can be a philosopher so easy. Questioning, reasoning, learning, reading proving yourself wrong everything you jump into a conclusion. That's philosophy. Today's philosopher considers themselves as knowers of the absolute truth and thinks they can't be wrong. That's not philosophy, that's to be a sophist.

Thanks for your comment.
