i think if anythin circates just had a bad run of analytic philosophers and thats why he has become so twisted and bitter.

Nothing wrong with trolling imo but you aught to at least be good at it.

I don't think he's trolling but I do lament the fact that he's apparently given up on philosophical contemplation.

But isn't it unfair how life offers more and stronger variations of physical pain than it does pleasure?
Is it just gods sense of humour... letting us into the belief that your life matters, a way to contrast death.
to intensify our feeling of being when in reality we're totally free.

What are you babbling about? Nothing is life is supposed to be fair.
Happiness is just a state of mind

So when you're losing your mind your not happy? Realising my freedom make me happy but i think the free nature of things is the true nature of thingsa and not relating to anything subjective. So it's all about acknowledgement, and then there's this painful body.... Isn't that just a morbid joke.

circastes i think it's pretty obvious you've had some gripe with some form of 'philosophy' and made this thread to blow off steam.
clearly you are just trying to be provocative ("failed to adapt to life", "neurotic individuals", "cannot express themselves normally")
and this all being said in a philosophy forum.
there is a reason that your post made andrewss feel like impaling someone.
that said i think philosophy is a stupid word coz it accounts for just about everything...

yet your mind won't allow that happiness if you are kicked in the groins, of course on the other hand you can optimize your happy feeling by going to the gym and such, but the potential for pain is greater than for pleasure imo.
So what i'm saying is what good is our body to the spiritual liberation that i assume we all want.

Who said your body is separate from your "spirit"? why're you so disgusted with your body? are you afraid to die?

You have no idea what our natural state is imo. Your posts seem really artificial to me.

I'm not afraid of being dead, but dying i wouldn't like so much. And your body is restrained somewhat from the learning/acknowledging treausures that you can achieve. Your animal urges are hindering your the free thought.
I don't consider my body a spirit either so i choose to make a distinction.

Projections, Mr Icelander!
I think it's important to spread happiness like it were an airborne virus.

So you're not afraid to die?; a true living dead, thats cool
I usually come back to mother in the end.
