Fox Posted April 3, 2023 Share Posted April 3, 2023 Hello everyone! I am new here on this forum. You can call me Fox. I am nonbinary and use they/them pronouns. I'm aromantic asexual, non-partnering, and I enjoy close platonic friendships. I love eating mangos and walking in the woods. My favorite book series is Wings of Fire! (Icewings are supreme) Some shows I like are Demon Slayer and The Good Place. I like philosophy, physics, astronomy, and I'm interested in studying sociology too! I hope to meet new people and make friends here :) 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's awesome! I have a hard time with physics too but it's just so cool! And I love having deep philosophical discussions. It's so interesting to hear about other people's perspectives. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, nightwings are cool too. I also like the rainwing's ability to change colors. 9 minutes ago, alto said: I've seen The Good Place! Yes! What did you think of it? The message of how anyone can learn to do good things given the right circumstances really formed my views on redemption and morality. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Harvest-Unity Posted April 5, 2023 Share Posted April 5, 2023 So are there any specific philosophical topics you are interested in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fox Posted April 5, 2023 Author Share Posted April 5, 2023 5 hours ago, Harvest said: So are there any specific philosophical topics you are interested in? I particularly like absurdism and existentialism, like I don't believe there's any inherent meaning or purpose to life but that means we have the freedom to make one for ourselves. I also believe that there is nothing in the world that everyone can agree on, because of how diverse the human experience is. This makes humanity as a whole unable to know something for certain and without doubt, because there will always be someone who argues against it. (Still, for the sake of being in a society, it's worth it to agree to call certain things as "truth" for it to function. I'm not saying we should give up the pursuit of knowledge because it invigorates many and is overall productive, this is just fun to think about.) This brings up the issue that I'm grappling with currently: why do most humans want to do good? I and I believe many others think it's very important to have integrity and be kind to other people, but not everyone thinks that. If everyone cannot agree on one thing, how can we say there is an absolute moral guide? If there is no absolute moral guide, how do humans know what they're doing is right? My current theory is that evolution led us to agree on a general set of principles so we work better together. My emotional side doesn't like that theory though, because I just feel so strongly that my moral principles are the "right" ones, even though my logical side knows I don't believe in absolute morals. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
