It's always funny when you ask a simple question, instead of sticking to the point, they are "waxing Philosophical."

Unique philosophical quote regarding ones temper and the immeasurable amount it can weigh on a person's mind

Surprise your teacher, geeky boyfriend/girlfriend, nerdy friend or a philosophy loving kid on any occasion with this inspirational quote from famous philosopher Marcus Aurelius:

God Is Dead

Unique philosophical quote regarding ones temper and the immeasurable amount it can weigh on a person's mind

Know someone who's been reading too much Plato or Kant? Perfect for the philosophy major in your life.

As a thought experiment, let’s reverse current philosophy that the Human Species has the only known sentient beings. Let’s not make humans part of the rule by removing our sentience (as in the philosophies that bring out our “animal heredity”), but rather by granting sentience to Everything Else. If the one-celled creatures of which I am made were sentient (and still are) and bonded together in much the same way that humans form families and cities and states and countries, to form organs and circulatory systems and other sentient entities, then there is no need for anything new to emerge. Human culture would be evolution up close and personal. Culture wouldn’t Group out there all by itself as a human phenomenon. Just as one geographi...

•Everything groups and Everything ungroups; •Everything is or was made up of groups of other things. These two statements represent a totality of Everything from quarks [the subatomic particles that group to create protons and neutrons, which in turn group with electrons to form atoms, which group into molecules, which group into cells, which group into organs, which group into systems, which group into individuals, which group into family, state, religion, species, ecosystem, planet, solar system, local star group, galaxy, cluster of galaxies] to super clusters of galaxies and possibly groups of universes. Everything whose existence has been confirmed by science, groups with other things and is, in turn, made up of groups of othe...

I call these infinite perspectives the perspective horizon. We all sit in a different position on this perspective horizon and are only able to see those entities that are within our own specific range. This perspective horizon extends infinitely in all directions.What is the fundamental, underlying principle of a tapestry? Are the micro-fibers more important than the overall pattern of the tapestry? Are both absolutely fundamentally equal from their individual places on the perspective horizon? The pattern can be used on different mediums; the medium of the tapestry can be used for different patterns. Can we imagine an entity for which the medium is critical but the pattern is invisible…a blind person? Can we imagine the opposite? Ev...

Waxing Philosophical (Intellectual ape)

•Sentience: a state of elementary or undifferentiated consciousness •Sentient: responsive to or conscious of sense impressions; aware; finely sensitive in perception or feeling I would like to explore the possibility that our universe is run by Infinite Sentience from the subatomic to the cosmic. Maybe humans are not the only sentient beings on this planet, but a part of a pattern of sentience, tied to groupings, which exists on infinite levels. Maybe things happen because infinite numbers of decisions are being made by infinite numbers of sentient entities coming from infinite grouping and size perspectives—infinity to the power of infinity.

The sixth image in the book Everything IS, a visual and intellectual theory of everything. I first ambled down this mental trail while thinking about Evolution. Evolution at the level of multi-celled creatures seems very obvious. A zebra looks too much like a horse; we look too much like other primates; dinosaurs look too much like reptiles, etc. for me to doubt it. However on the microscopic level, that moment when life was created from the primordial stew of non-living molecules…how did that happen? One minute there were non-living molecules floating around, the next minute they grouped into one-celled living creatures? How? How did these one-celled creatures turn into multi-celled, sentient me? What is the mechanism? At one t...

"Communism will win" in Toki Pona ("nasin pi jo kulupu li pini pona").

I am offering for discussion the theory that the vast colonies of microbes, bacteria and other entities of which we are made, combined for the same reasons that humans combine: they made decisions; they are still making decisions; our cities are making decisions; galaxies are making decisions; the atoms that combined to form molecules and the molecules that combined to form DNA were and ARE all making decisions. No clockwork universe in my world! Read the blog at "Everything IS":http://www.everythingis.info or purchase the book at "Purchase Everything IS":http://www.blurb.com/bookstore/detail/361176

"Communism will win" in Toki Pona ("nasin pi jo kulupu li pini pona").

Dive into philosophical musings with our intriguing piece that declares, "I do not think, therefore I do not am." This design cleverly inverts the classic philosophical statement, offering a fresh, humorous twist on existential ponderings.Perfect for those who appreciate a dash of wit in their philosophical debates, this piece is a playful nod to the complexities of consciousness and existence.

Albert Camus (1913-60) was a French Algerian philosopher, author, and journalist, who won the Nobel in Literature in 1957. His most famous works are The Stranger, The Myth of Sisyphus, The Rebel, and The Plague. The concept of Absurdity is one of the main themes throughout his oeuvre.

This was designed by a sloth and it is one of the least philosophical sloths in the world. Feeling sorry for themselves, a sloth named sloth runs away from home to ponder their existence in the woods. Suddenly, they spot a human walking into the forest, where they snag a refreshing can of lemon soda and take a seat next to them. However, upon closer inspection, a shocking reality sets in that the human’s problems are worse and greater than the sloth's. This realization makes the sloth feel a little less soiled and guilty about feeling sorry for themselves.

I could, but I don’t - deep philosophical thoughts

A simple design featuring the word “Strength” reflected.

I have been dissatisfied with the current explanations of how humans emerged from non-sentient primates. The religious evolutionists propose that God blew the spirit into man. The scientific emergence theories seem to have the same breath happening, it’s just paced differently—it takes place over a much longer period of time. But what did that first glimmer of sentience look like? What was it made up of? What is it made up of today? If Everything is sentient and always was sentient, then there is no need for this breath of spirit or emergence of sentience. The spirit was always here. The sentience was always there. Everything is spirit/sentience. Read the blog at "Everything IS":http://www.everythingis.info or purchase the boo...
