I don’t hate ALL Philosophy
So apparently I am getting a bit of a wrap of hating philosophy. And although Hobbes just insulted me to the very core, it isn’t ALL philosophy, just him. Rousseau on the other hand, I thought was fantastic.His points were … Continue reading → Continue reading →
What the heck are the “laws of nature” for Hobbes?
