Socrates was the originator of rational socratic reasoning and will always be the best. There is no surpassing him, he started it all. Fuck you, I love Socrates, even if he wasn't actually a real person.

>B is moved by A.
>Therefore we have a divine mover.

I don't take everything Aquinas says 100%, but the divine mover concept does fit in well with the "Warhammer 40k religion" in that there is a circulation of different forces effecting our perception of reality, goals, emotions, and being.

These principalities are both sentient, yet without form.

Okey meng first you reads the Hume, then you read Kant, then Hegel now if you want 2 be an analytic tightarse you should go for like Frege & Russell, maybe a bit of James then Witty, Ayer then the Quine, some Tarski,Popper, Kuhn-kun, and a bunch of guys after that that haven't really pushed the project forward in any meaningful way

OR you can be a real cool dude who gets all the chicks and read a little bit of Hegel after Kant, Schopeadope, some Nietzsche, Marx, Freud, Husserl, "lolNazi", the Frankfurters, a bunch of structuralist shit no-one cares about anymore, Sartrem Foucault, that stupid old fart Habermas, Rorty, Derrida and so on

and what's more you'll be a man my son
