Having just read Descartes's Meditations, this is probably going to mess with me more than it really ought to.

Yay for messing with people's minds? That's what writing's all about XD

Trying to learn the riff for Leader of the Band by Dan Fogelberg. Damn.

Screwing with some n00b on MX.

Just wondering, anyone like Thomas Hobbes or John Locke a whole lot?

[Dual]

I'm a fan of Locke.

[Pyro H2O]

:) Sweet.
Yeah, out of the two, I like Locke better. Though I'm cynical to the core, Hobbes's absolute monarchy beliefs aren't my taste. I'd rather listen to a speech from Locke than Hobbes. :D What do you think?

[nathan_p]

I seem to remember having a giant boner for Locke in European History.

Hobbes... I know very little about, other than the tiger was based on him.

[Pyro H2O]

XD So I can assume you liked him a little?

Thomas Hobbes, the most cynical old political philosopher I've learned about...he's kind of depressing. And the tiger was based on him? o.o'

[nathan_p]

Yeah... although now I barely remember him, so God knows why that was.

Apparently so!

[Pyro H2O]

Well he believed in individual freedoms and that a government must protect the rights of its people. Also hated the crap out of absolute monarchy and such. But perhaps there's something or another we don't learn about him that's more in-depth, so I probably couldn't help you remember.

:) It's true what they say: You learn something new everyday.

Edit: And on a slightly related note (it's also part of the homework), Jean d'Alembert immediately makes me think of Adam Lambert.

[nathan_p]

Ooh yeah that guy. No wonder.

Heh, are you studying 18th century philosophy or what? Maybe it's 17th. Fuck me, I can't remember.
