philosophy is the worst class ever.
"how can we know that separate minds aside from ours exist?" "how do we know the external world exists?" "how do i know my body exists?"
um, because we aren't stupid!
the only interesting point was when he started talking about brains and dendrites and synapses. otherwise, i either wanted to fall asleep or laugh at him.
this is going to be a very painful 7 weeks.
why not devote time to important things?
i don't know. it's annoying. definitely not how my brain is wired because this seems like the most useless waste of a class.
but then again, how do i know that i am even in this class, or that this class even exists? maybe my school doesn't even exist and I'm still at home sleeping. maybe my home doesn't exist. maybe sleep doesn't exist. maybe it's all an illusion.
what bullshit.
(maybe bullshit doesn't exist, either (therefore, this class does not exist).)

Oh Descartes... classical philosophy at its finest.
I'm not sure what you will read in your class.. but I suspect you would be more of an ethicist, or a philosophy of religion person.
i keep trying to tell myself it will possibly get better, but 3 hours of that this morning was brutal, and im not looking forward to another 3 hours on wednesday morning...
(i must have explained it well though, for you to know who i was talking about! wow, i paid attention! haha)
