Suffering from memory loss?

Don't remember the wall?
The restrictions on Muslim immigration?
Those rapists and criminals that Mexico keeps sending us?

Selective memory does not serve you well.


And I'm not a registered democrat.

Just for the sake of clarification.....I don't think the dems are any better than the republicans nor are the republicans any better than the dems.

I don't care how you are registered.

It's what's in your heart that counts. And you wear yours on your sleeve.

Rajoo, if you ever have a chance to get into the philosophy business, run the other way!

Especially if its TJ that wants to go partners.....

I have enough credits for an undergraduate minor in Philosophy.

I started out majoring in it but then this asshole hippie professor (this was in 1968) who I got assigned to as my advisor pissed me off, so I switched to Geography.

I'd forgotten all about that asshole till you mentioned Philosophy. I mean you should have seen that FRO on that dude. We're talking about a white guy here. It was like Bob Ross on steroids.

You would be of no help to Rajoo with his ethics.

I can easily believe, though, that you would do fine in a modern philosophy department, since they have been ducking all the real questions for decades now. Formal philosophy is now done mainly by the School of Economics, and the School of Management.

On a practical level, the shrinks and the clergy have to do it some, of course.

At least with a geography major you can likely read a map. A philosophy major, OTOH, only prepares you to ask "Do you want fries with that?"

Nonsense. Philosophy teaches arguing but is now silent on ethics. As such, an undergrad philossophy degree is excellent preparation for law school.
