Welcome to Gaia! ::

Hello! My name is Joanna, my nickname is Raticiel. I'm a very old woman with 21 springs experienced. I live in a beautiful country, Poland. I live in the woods with my family and my two dogs and four cats. I study philosophy and culture in University of Szczecin (I bet nobody heard of it), I'm on my 2nd year. I'm interested with many things, my real dream is to become a cartoonist. Studying philosophy is something great. I'm learning, I'm meeting many different points of view and I'm trying to find my way in it. I have some favourite philosophers, such as Descartes, Nietzsche, Rousseau, Kant, Spinoza, Freud, Bacon, David Lewis, a great mind of my nation, Kolakowski... I generally like it when someone thinks clear and it can be compared with my own thoughts. Yet, I guess I need to study more blaugh
I also like to listen good music, cook, read, watch some good movies, manga/anime, japanese role-playing games, spend time with animals, swimming, having some fun from time to time wink
I hope it will be fun here biggrin

Greetings and Welcome Joanna and Matthew! biggrin

I hope you both have fun here!

Good morrow. Tis a pleasure to meet all you fine folk. My name is Marc. I tend to lean heavily toward religious philosophy & metaphysics. Though I do have some strong opinions in political philosophy. On that score I am a Libertarian & no that does not mean liberal. More on that as it comes up. I am finally heading back to school, so a lot of my posts (when I have time for it) will lean toward what I am working on at that moment. Sometimes I feel that I am older then dirt (we greww everything hydroponically back then ofcourse. lol)

As I have often said... I am a bit of a ham, somewhat cheesy, with a rye sense of humor (now why do I suddenly want a sandwich?)

Welcome Andrew and Marc!

I hope you both enjoy this Guild and help revive it from the death sleep it tends to go under every now and then. biggrin

Hi, I'm Reuben. I'm 24, a college dropout, and unemployed (which is how I like it). I have a lot of cerebral interests, check my profile to see the extensive list. I've been into philosophy and "deep thinking" as long as I can remember. When I was about nine years old I asked my father, "What if I'm the only real person and everybody else is just a robot?" He didn't really know how to respond to that one. I guess I've always thought about things on a different level than many people do. I look forward to discussing those deep thoughts with the rest of you!

My name is Michelle. I'm 16, 11th grade. My dream is to major in philosophy, however I'm somewhat new to it. I do not have extensive experience, and I may ask questions (but that's the point, now, isn't it?) I'm here to learn and share my ideas.

My inspiration is an old friend of mine who majored in philosophy himself, passing with an A on the final. The statement he had to respond to was,
"Prove this desk is not real."

All he wrote was, "What desk?"

I'm not on the member list yet, but i got the message what says i was accepted. My name is Tony Wells and im a senior in highschool. I like almost every branch of philosophy. Metaphysics and epistomology, and ethics and aestetics. I dont really care for political philosophy. I personally dont have a religious preferance but im tolerant everyone elses beliefs. Any day im on ill visit the forums and put in my 2 cents on almost any topic.... Not like i have much else to do.
