Hello,
My kids have always been homeschooled and now that we are beginning high school aged curriculum next fall my eldest is very interested in studying Philosophy. We are not looking for a Christian based course but a curriculum that is secular based.
If anyone has any good suggestions it would be greatly appreciated.

Destiny asked:


My teacher graded my philosophy paper and said I had the wrong idea of a philosopher on his thoughts of **** (I said that the philosopher was neutral on rape, but the philosopher was really against rape). He then said I had an “gross misunderstanding”.

Was he insulting me? Was he saying I was “disgusting” to have thought that?

egocentric_loner asked:


I’m just wondering if my worldview is similar to any officially recognized philosophy: nothing is worth fighting for, struggling for, striving for, suffering for, living for, dying for. I would give up all the possible good just to avoid any possible bad. I would give up the ability to feel anything at all ever again, just to never have to feel anything unpleasant ever again. If I have to take the bad with the good, I don’t want either. And my view on life in general is: can we just get this over with? Is that similar to an officially recognized philosophy?

I’m a philosophy major, and all the books that I read are difficult. I mean is it possible to actually understand these books? Did I choose the wrong major? I have to finish my master’s thesis anyways. How can I manage this?

someone asked:


I spend most of in philosophy…but a lot of the questions that interest me are ones on human nature and believes….what do you think each section has to offer?

ChicaB asked:


I need either a philosophy class or an ethics class, and I can’t decide which one to take..mainly because I’m not entirely sure what is covered in a philosophy class. I have a hard time thinking in terms of symbolim-would that be a problem?
Thanks for your help.

I am getting my bachelors. I want to major in Philosophy and Economics and a minor in business legal studies to pursue law. If I choose not to pursue law after my degree, which careers will I be qualified for? I have 10 years of full-time restaurant experience–5 of those in management.
