Has philosophy (the rational investigation of questions about existence and knowledge and ethics ever brought us closer to the truth of God and our existence,purpose,and destination? ........
or has history proven that it was,is and will ever be just a continual profession of opinions,reasoning and babble, bouncing around ideas in a room we call this natural realm,(earth,universe)never really achieving, purpose and destination but only personal gratification,stimulation and comparative thinking.
"profess to know and speak of God by mere speculative reasoning and assumptions (philosophy) stimulates it's adherents, astonishes it's audience,leaving an unquenching appetite begging for more,all the while causing a grave injustice upon absolute truth and to those who are void of it, for ignornace is bliss by reason of personal choice and preference.
Will our discussional debates and philosophical rhetoric justify us in the end?
Rom 3:4God forbid: yea, let God be true, but every man a liar; as it is written, That thou mightest be justified in thy sayings, and mightest overcome when thou art judged.
Isa 55:8 For my thoughts [are] not your thoughts, neither [are] your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Isa 55:9 For [as] the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts

Hare Krishna
Ones one Hare Krishna devotee spoke with one philosopher for hours and the philosopher still could not understand the importance of spiritual practice namely chanting of Hare Krishna. So, the devotee decided to conclude the conversation and he said: "Instead of philosophizing so much till now for three hours we could better chant the Holy name of Krishna. By chanting that transcendental sound vibration the whole existence namely mind, intelligence and ego become gradually spiritualized and so the spiritual philosophy of Krishna Consciousness can be easily understood". At that point the philosopher although not inclined to accept the Hare Krishna but still, being interested in spiritualizing his own existence, decided to make an experiment - to Chant Hare Krishna daily. Now, after half year because of his enlivening experience due to chanting Hare Krishna he became a very nice steady spiritualist. He lives in Enschede in east-Holland and maintains a Hare Krishna website.
Please, chant Hare Krishna and be happy
