    Trade Jobs

    So can anyone describe what pursuing a trade (eg plumbing, welding, etc) is like in terms of necessary training and costs? If you work in a trade, how does employment generally work? Do you enjoy it?

    Mexico and Brazil in 1 trip (2 weeks)

    It's probably also good if you want to be stalked by Luis wearing a fake mustache to conceal his identity ;) But to address the OP, I have been to both countries. I was in Rio most recently (about 2 years ago), as a city I generally liked it. But like Luis said, if you go there, prepare to see...

    Ferguson: Maybe time to start asking the most pertinent questions?

    The last post is the WINNER!

    Revoltingest ain't, he's had his hand stuck in that toilet (which I presume is Brady Hoke's) for months if not longer. He's gonna need a paramedic to amputate that septic rot.

    Is philosophy an alternative to religion?

    What you said: Implies that Neoplatonism is a MERELY time period of philosophy. Which it isn't. It's both, but mainly refers to the school of philosophy in most cases I've seen it. A "philosophical tradition" is a school of thought, meaning it is a SPECIFIC philosophy, regardless of when it was...

    Is philosophy an alternative to religion?

    Except it is a philosophy. It's pretty easy to figure out it is if you read Wiki or even read writings by a neoplatonist like Platon (which I have). Much of Judeo-Christian thought on G-d is influenced by neoplatonic philosophy. Yes but it's meaningless w/o a sensible way to practice being...

    Is ISIS a disaster for all muslims?

    I don't think a simple condemnation from Muslims is going to stop ISIS, let alone do much of anything. Especially seeing that the IS believes many Muslims are kufr.

    Is philosophy an alternative to religion?

    That's quite a bold statement to make. What is the goal of a philosophy such as neoplatonism? The Christian religion? I think the answer to the latter is much more obvious and it helps that there are generally guidelines on how to be righteous. Like what? What other institutions are we talking...

    Is philosophy an alternative to religion?

    GOOOOOOOOOOAL! (Marcar um gol de placa!) ...Sorry I just had to :D But if you are implying that religions have goals while philosophies usually don't, then I agree with you. It's what makes religion generally more meaningful than most philosophies IMHO.

    Is philosophy an alternative to religion?

    Religion is basically philosophy w/ a practice and some semblance of tradition.

    Is ISIS a disaster for all muslims?

    Seeing that Muslims are the primary target for groups like ISIS (for the time being at least), yes.

    The Definition Of "libertarian"

    How are these contradictory to libertarianism? It's possible to be a conservative libertarian. Minimal govt.=minarchist=libertarian, no govt.=anarchist. The two are different (though similar in a few ways).

    The Definition Of "libertarian"

    I think at it's very core, everyone can agree that Libertarianism requires freedom fries and riding a giant diesel-powered bald eagle into the sunset while shouting, "MUH LIBERTY!" as a prerequisite.
