First year?
Admitting to any supernatural or religious belief is social suicide in any of my philosophy classes.
I found that most were weeded out of first year

Yeah, I need the arts electives, and since philosophy is based on just logic and argument it is ironically closer to science than most other arts.

Given that this is a science board, it's probably a 100 or 200 level philosophy course taken to satisfy gen ed requirements. The kind where the kind of people who believe that their philosophical prattle is meaningful and that all of their beliefs are rational despite all evidence contradicting both of those claims.

It's a damn shame so many derps tarnish philosophy.

Philosophy (the love of wisdom) is VERY related to science (the love of knowledge). Just philosophy is so broad it also houses fuckwits and gits.

Sorry, that should say pseudophilosophical prattle. Firefox's spell check must not have liked it.

In recent years, the 'scourge of athiesm' has spread across religions worldwide. They meet in church basements and talk about us. They then fan out across the globe and post on message boards, youtube vids, write on bathroom walls and, especially, join philosophy courses. To some degree this has always been happening but there has been a serious uptick in recent years.

I've got the same thing going on right now, but I really don't care enough to intervene. Plus I'm fucking horrible at thinking quickly. There's a few muslim guys in the class that take it way too seriously, too. The instructor is hindu, though, which I suppose is among the most neutral of beliefs on the subject. I don't see how you could teach philosophy if you have strong religious beliefs, as in christianity and islam.

I don't want to sound too full of myself, but I was fairly surprised just how retarded most college students are. Believing in god & thinking capitalism is a sin because Micheal Moore told them so.

A philosophy class or a class in an American college/university ...

Pick one because you can't have both.

man, when I first got to college I realized that some people couldn't even read. No joke. They would be asked to read aloud and they would crawl their way through a sentence and get hung up on fancy words like "theoretically."
