two thoughts
Oct. 5th, 2006 06:49 pmcome to the idle mind
1..why do so many philosophers have to be so serious? Why do they so seldom seem to pay attention to homo luden...man the player as it were.
2. what exactly is it that seperates us from other species? Other species make tools, other species know love, know hate, at least seem to dream, make war. We are not, in a physical sense, even the braniest. The only thing I can think of at the moment is that we are the only species that wears clothes. Perhaps that is where the story of the fig leaf came from?
