Philosophy

[Jerky]

I'm asking for a friend because I know Shatzy is a great philosophist. By any chance would you know about this?=>

Friend's Q: What are the strengths and weaknesses of J.S. mills' arguments concerning the greatest good for a diverse and pluralistic society?

My Q: What is time? (memories) [img]wink.gif[/img]

[Jerky]

Thanks in advance for any responses~

uh-oh.. before you ask for 'good' and 'bad' there's the whole moral relativism with the following loss of meaning of good and bad, not to mention that philosophy will never answer what time is, just come up with cool ideas to describe it. At least, that's what i expect.

mill.... he had a good idea... i suppose.
too bad we are currently living the downside
to his argument [img]tongue.gif[/img]

as zela said, one main problem is how you
determine the values of 'good' and 'bad'.

its a question of how much of an individuals
'good' will you sacrifice for the whole.

and then again, who determines what is good
for the whole?

as for the second Q........ an answer after
these short messages

come on people, post! it's not good for my ego to see an acropolis page full with "last post: Zelazny".

Hmmm. neither were those cups of tea, i think that's the reason why i was playing a post whore today, that and my futile attempts to keep myself from doing any real work.
Anyway.. Good night all, i'm going to try and sleep.

Time is meaningless.
