Because we definitely have that one. In common parlance philosophy is often used to stand for ones creed or most basic system of beliefs. So you'll also find threads of that sort there. You might argue that yours deserves its place there on that basis. But this neighborhood seems the more appropriate setting to me.
I do understand very well what make sense and what doesn't according to you guys.
I also do understand that to a smoker or a drinker does make sense to smoke or drink.
Unfortunately when you reach a stage in which the mind get twisted with the wrong idea the wrong become right.
It happen all the time.
The creed and belief are most often own interpretation of the truth.
Eg. take the Taliban or the Is.
They think that the truth is to chop those who refuse to convert their neck off.
Philosophy can not be interpreted any way so there is no room for creed or belief.
If you prevent the free flow of a river everything get changed.
The truth is one for everybody and that is the end of the story so when you come up with creed or interpretation you show once again that you haven't got a clue about philosophy and his meaning.
