How do we know anything?
That is philosophy
The religious server
We don't know in the first place, it's a belief
It's Theism
The same way that you would think of a Christian God
man idk, i am just filled with doubt about everything in the cosmos at this point
Thomas Aquinas dedicated his life to these questions btw
He was looking to prove Christianity as a philosopher first, believer second.

@GrandxSlam What do you anchor truth to? Empiricism?
Can someone explain to me why Centrism is looked down upon?
@Ben Centrism is apathy
It is pragmatism at its worst
Apathy is death
Is centrism based on a principle?
Yes
the principle of indecisiveness
So let's say health care. On the complete right, the principle is the free market. On the complete left, the principle is equality. The center is pragmatism, trying to balance them out.
I am going to do a face reveal
ur hot
thank
What salary would you guys call high coming out of uni
To stand on a viewpoint where, regarding the US, gun control is needed, but not needed to such an extent where we would start restricting the use of guns completely, as well as not having willy-nilly gun-toting anyones with the power to kill, where woudl that viewpoint be?
Like starting salary
I'd say it's a moderate decision, right?
And I consider simple moderation a more central point than pushed to either side
That's why people don't like centrism
Because the statement is vague
Whenever I take a test on my political views I always end up near centrist or slightly right leaning
But yeah that would be a centrist position
yeah that's what I'm getting too @Xenoframe
I want to have a better understanding of politics so I lurk here whenever there are discussions about it going on <:PepeIntrastain:482328467829030961>
When I think of Centrism, I prefer to think of it as simple moderation, not apathy. Unfortunately, its viewed as such because many Centrists ARE apathetic to most topics.
If your views don't match the principle (in this case complete freedom vs complete "security") then you are somewhwere in the center.
I guess it depends on the topic for me
Most left leaning views I dont agree with
yeah but what does the gang weed empire have to say about it
