Patchy is a hog.

[Shikieiki !!T3dW8SatkER No.]

All I remember from my philosophy class is Buddha, Socrates and Euclid.

[Shikieiki !!T3dW8SatkER No.]

>>6141149
Oh yeah and Pythagoras.

[Suigin !fKazami5bE No.]

I only remember Empedocles

Really? I'm taking a Philosophy class this semester and all we talk about is Descarte.

[Anonymous No.]

What kind of philosophic treatises would Patchy prefer to read?

[Shikieiki !!T3dW8SatkER No.]

"What is a man?" by Remilia Scarlet.

>>6141164
I guess it depends on the professor, the one I had was more focused on Ancient Greece, Buddhism and bits of Christianity.

Patchy would read John Locke

I took a philosophy course focused on metaphysics and the professor made a point of rarely mentioning names. I got the feeling that that was rather unusual, but I think I learned a few things. Easy class, though.

Yesterday I asked for link to download all Touhou games. So I downloaded them all and started to play them, after few hours of gaming I was fucking addicted to Touhou, so I decided I wont go to campus today, instead I'll play more Touhou, after 14 hours of playing all Touhou games I feel little dizzy and when I close my eyes I see fucking bullets and my eyes start moving itself. How can I stop this /jp/? Tell me how. Take resposibility for giving me link to Touhou.

Lay off the games?

Grazing is an arete, a mean between the deficiency of getting hit by a bullet and the excess of running too far away from it. to master that arete, one has to willingly undergo the process of repeatedly training himself to grazing bullets, until that practice becomes a hexis.

I just wish I could read Plato and Aristotle in Patchouli's library all day and night. ;__;

Wittgenstein said philosophy is not a science Unlike most philosophags or a bunch of theories, but an activity. I agree.

What? I thought it was generally agreed that philosophy is a humanity like history. Some people really are stupid.

Philosophy is a formal science. History is a social science.

I'm aware of that, but they're hopeless in that regard to begin with.

[witionte unani No.]

>>6141170
she has already read it all but would hopefully be decent enough to entertain whichever particular one you prefer.
I wish we could recite from Omar Khayyam together. ;_;

I think you're all missing the point. Wittgy-kun said that philosophy wasn't a science at all, more like an art or a practical skill.
You should probably just post more Patchouli

[Necrobrotent No.]

Math is just a tool.

It might be best to say that science IS philosophy. The empirical method, which the scientific method is based off of was formed when two schools of philosophy: meta-physics and well... not meta-physics, split apart.

Philosophy justifies, defines and develops the logical underpinnings of all scientific pursuits. For these reasons, some people think philosophy is the highest form of inquiry.

Science derived from Philosophy. Deal with it.

Who's the most nihilistic touhou?

[Anonymous No.]

>>6141629
Kaguya.

[Anonymous No.]

the idea of Patchy reading Kant's "The Metaphysics of Morals" is somehow hot.

[Anonymous No.]

Which touhou smokes weed?

[Shikieiki !!T3dW8SatkER No.]

Reisen, I mean just look at her eyes.

Patchy reading anything is hot

Patchy is probably a dirty continental philosophy fangirl. Slicking to Derrida and all that shit.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6141149
I took philosophy roughly half a year ago and I don't remember shit except how I struggled with that essay I wrote on "The advantages and limitations of analytical approaches to knowledge".

I also remember how I didn't remember a thing about existentialism when we had an oral examination on it. It was very embarrassing.

Shit was hard as hell and it quite surprised me because since it was a one semester class I though it was going to be light and me sipping tea and having a merry old time discussing some philosophical essentials with a few other students. Instead it was very draining and while it was interesting I don't know if it's the thing for me.

I got the next to highest grade though

She reminds me so much of Yue...

Cirno would probably read Nietzsche and his concepts of the uebermensch.

[Anonymous No.]

Touhou is basically a postmodernist work of art, and I specifically mean a story. Characters are cleary emancipated from ideological appartuses. There is no alienation derived from class divisions, which is also emphasized by feminist, even post-genederist cultural superstructure. To sum up, I think that ZUN's philosophical projects is somehow similar to Rabelais' and Fourier's utopias. It's clearly a socially progressive work, full of marxist overtones, but also not unaware of post-structural trends present in works of anarchofeminists.

Expected, Yue was probably inspired by Patchy

[Anonymous No.]

What do you think they believe in?
If you are a Vampire do you think you believei n nothing? Or do they have some kind of philosophy and believe?
Or is it more like My God why hast thou forsaken me, angry and furious because of what they are.

Obviously they're libertines. SDM = Selling.

I've always thought Touhous would live by the laws of Stoicism.

[Anonymous No.]

>>6141940
I disagree. One thing is to need to feed on the blood of the living, and another is to be rotten to the core like Sade.

Or at least they are civilized enough to not warrant an extermination by the local miko or every demon hunter in the human village.
