Hey kids! Welcome to a spooky Halloween edition of Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Today: Do you believe in ghosts? Not afterlife but specifically ghosts. Meaning souls that are lost or somehow not ready to go to "the light" until something gets resolved.
Are ghosts trapped by the lives they lived or are they representative of our own fears? Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Today: What's expressed without words? Sometimes I hear songs & the lyrics are meaningless, but somehow they evoke a big feeling. Sometimes I say to I love you, but it's not felt until i'm the same room.
Why are words deficient? & what's the best ways to communicate without words? Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! TODAY: to truly love someone is it necessary to also take care of them somehow? Is real love a byproduct of effort? I'm thinking of pets & babies. Remember tamagotchis? The work & time we put in exponentially increases the love
. Which brings up the issue, can people who never interact with each other, or give anything of themselves to that love object, truly be in love? This idea came up when discussing ai chatbots that people claim to be falling in love with. Or text relationships with humans.
That seems like a love substitute. But maybe i'm wrong. What do you think? Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Why are humans the only creatures who KNOW they're going to die. We live with it. What's that about? Is there an evolutionary advantage? What could that be? Some religions say it's because man has a special relationship to G-d.
And the spiritual explanation somehow makes more sense. What do you think? Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! I almost forgot it! Sorry. Today: why do we need villains? Why do we need to label people evil and blame them for what might be a complex set of issues. Life is complicated. People are multifacited. Elon Musk is an asshole...
...but not just an asshole. It's easy to think of him just one way. Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Today: Do you like yourself? Not every aspect, but if you met someone like you, would you befriend them? Or would your flaw stand in the way?What needs to change to friend yourself?
What'd the finest part about being your friend be? Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Today marks the 350th week I've asked you a question on Friday! The hope was Twitter could be more enlightening, kinder, & promote ideas not hate. I'd say the experiment has mostly failed making any impact.
But I have gotten to know some great people & we've talked about some cool ideas. So thanks to all who have participated & 3 cheers for thinkers with big hearts. Was there a question we spoke of that has particular meaning or impact? Did anything make you think?
Anything encourage change Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Today: 25 years after 9/11 what's your take-a-way? Is the world safer or less safe? Could America be hated less? Is any thing better? Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about. Ready? Steady... Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Today: do you belive in forgiveness? What earns it? Sincere apology? Penance? Restitution? What can you never come back from? Let's talk. about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady.. Go!
Hey kids! Welcome to Jay Kogen's #PhilosophyPhriday! Today: in the wake of Dolly Parton's death I can see her music & style & inner goodness infected society. That's a real contribution like a polio vaccine & farming potatoes. So are we contributing? Can we contribute more?
And do you agree that contributing important? Let's talk about that or whatever you want to talk about on #PhilosophyPhriday! Ready? Steady... Go!
