Death to Philosophy

How many times have you heard it proposed that philosophy is dead? Or, perhaps you questioned a friendly thinker about why they would find intrigue in investigating the paranormal.

In this age of “fake news” there is a feeling that even empirical truths are questionable. Aside from traditional science and math, most anything can be debunked with effective publicity. Nonetheless, the human condition continues to propel us to conquest toward things unknown.

For those of us who want to evade a dooming future, hope cannot be squashed. There’s a depression in the air that’s consumed our psyches for way too long. Recognizing the listless gaze of our children or witnessing their immersive disassociation we’ve suddenly realized something went wrong!

There are those of us who sensed this coming. We have been warned whilst being subdued. There’s media/propaganda, war/peace, love/hate, and morality/immorality. All this leading to illusion and disillusion, seemingly guided to a big bag of whys?

What’s the point? We continue the narrative “for goodness sake” whilst the concept is ever-diminishing. New age philosophy promotes self-actualization as the only reprimand for our evading truths. This must be the key to reuniting cause and effect. Promote reinvigoration of math and science whilst string theory and quantum mechanics are lost in that same bag.

There’s no reason for anything, so do what you want. Even the curious existentialist is balled-up in the bag to create meaning in The Absurd.

I would propose that the key to new discovery is uncovering the “why.”

With this perfect collusion of “fake news”, how could we give up on ourselves? But, we haven’t given up! We are on the verge of new engagement to mold the fabric of our dwindling future. So, when nothing matters, make it matter! Voila! But, 1+1 cannot equal anything other than 2! Have the numbers lied to us?

Resorting classification management systems smells of deception as well! It’s the type of stink that produces results! Enjoy the “fake news”, but don’t screw up the math.

Knowledge is a mixed bag, and we will construct new paths to save our species. Today, our thinkers are watching the same news and wouldn’t dare serve their truths so easily! Philosophy is not dead, it’s breeding in the same pool! Oops, I mean bag.
