I jest. Philosophy is important, I've come to realize how much as of late. In certain forms, anyway. It can also be entirely pointless if you're not careful. But if you keep your head in reality at least, the mental workout can be good even without practical applications.
Oh come on.
You gotta admit Chad and Nestor are extremely intelligent people and definitely know their stuff when it comes to this subject. Where's the love?
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
