      "body": "One of the most interesting topics in philosophy is evil, what is evil? What lead us to do evil? Is it a useful concept or just useful to religion? I think that it is interesting to think about the nature of evil. First we need to define what evil is, and create a good definition of something is never a trivial task. Lets start with the following definition: Evil is an action or  actions that direct or indirect hurt one or more living beings.\nThat definition is to broad, follow it to its conclusion and we will discover that we are all evil, because everybody hurts living beings everyday, because that are microscopic creatures, like bacteria, that we don't see but we kill everyday. Therefore we may need a definition that take into account only sentient beings like crabs, dogs, insects and so on. But now we have to define conciseness too, and that is a really difficult task too.\nLets do the following, lets put aside the task of define what the hell is a sentient being and define as evil all the actions that we do with or without intention, that hurt others sentient beings.\nNow that we know what is evil, let think about we lead us to do it, well, we know that there are many causes of evil actions, the non-intentional causes, are just actions with undesirable results, on the other hand, the intentional ones can be cause by a variety of reasons. We can do evil things because we don't have empathy, or because we are angry, or just because we are sadists. who knows? At this point of my essay the reader must be already full aware of the total lack of good philosophy in it. What happen with this text was a combination of a creative block with a strange desire of just write a stream of thought, the result is draft of a text about evil. I will probably return to this topic in the future, probably with a better and more inspired text, just happened that I am to evil not to publish it.",

They were aware of the fact the no universe is eternal, and with the expansion of the universe, the channels of communication between the galaxies maybe be lost forever.\nTo execute such a bold plan they spend centuries gathering the energy necessary to build this new universe, and during that period they also developed a technology capable of preserving things indefinitely, they use that technology to preserve physical artifacts in a museum. The way in which this mysterious technology of matter preservation works is one of the greatest mysteries about the organization that became known as The Order of The New Universe.\nThe number of members of the Order is estimated in more than 30 millions, and most of them work as collectors universe treasure, they travel around the galaxies and collect, buy or even stole anything that they consider that has practical or historical value for the new universe. They have members of multiple galaxies and species, but little is known about its administration or how exactly they recruit people. This organization has so much knowledge and power, that no planet refuses its visit, and many are those who offers their treasures to them.\nOne can say with no doubt that the Order is the most ambitious and durable project in the universe, at least as far as we known, but I believe no one can say when and if this project is going to get complete, this information will only become known when the universe died.",

Isn't curious that although we have choices, we must do bad choices to keep what we consider to be good? I am fully aware that the life in a big city has a series of downsides, I know about the harm cause by pollution, how artificial lights affect our circadian cycle, the deleterious effects of sound pollution, and knowing all that I still live in a big city.\nThe reason for me and millions of others to do so many bad choices, is that the benefits seems to outweigh the costs. I am constantly inundating my lungs with polluted air, but I can go to a book store, and go to the mall to watch a movie. The artificial light is bad for my sleep, but is the price to pay for all the commodities of a big city. Therefore I must conclude that I am a slave of my passions, and the same probably apply to all of us.\nThe best we can do to make the chains less tight is to try to improve the benefits and reduce the cost. I could say that I am ending this reflection with a very simple conclusion: cost benefit analysis\nis king.",

How in their search for identity they feel overwhelmed by despair and sorrow, when they do not know enough about their past? These questions captivated my interest, because I have never been very curious about my ancestors and don not consider myself a patriot.\nWhy belong to a group is so important? Why we feel so comfortable when we find a label that fit us? Maybe that is just because we are social animals, we are adapt to live in groups, and because of that we struggle to fit in the groups we value. However, would not be better if we just give up off this search and create an identity from the ground up? Would not that be liberating? Why bother in fitting in a series of habits and traditions? Why attach yourself to a community? Why limit yourself in a way that can be so harmful?\nI think most people care so much about belong to a group because it provides them with comfort, but it also constrain their ability to expand their  identity, maybe that is a bargain that work for some people, but to me it looks like something lock you up in a prison of compromises and expectations.\nTo sum up, only when we are free to build our identity, we can interact with people in a truly meaningful way, because in that circumstance we communicate with them with out trying to see our group identity reflected in them, but trying to make all the good we can see in the persons we met, become a part of us.",

Given the fact that I start this article with a very bold statement, I will assume that my readers are starting to think in a series of objections to my absurd idea, but I humbly ask to keep reading, maybe you will agree with me at the end, and besides, my articles are generally very short.\nTo prove my point about knowledge I will start using cancer as a problem that can be solved with more knowledge, but even in the cases when a cancer can be cured anymore, it is still a problem that can be in a certain way be solved with knowledge. When you know that there is nothing that you can do to change something, you can at least learn how to deal with the feeling of impotence that emerge from this kind of situation. I'm aware of the fact that the line of reasoning that I'm using is creating an argument that can't be refuted, because every example of a problem that can't be solved with more knowledge, can be counter with an example of how to deal with the impotence cause by this, and deal with frustration and despair always demand knowledge.\nNevertheless, my point is that all the suffering in the world is cause by our blindness to other possibilities, or our inability to accept the world as it is. What I think is possible to create, is not a world without suffer and despair, but a world when at least most people are capable of escaping a spiral of bad feelings, a world capable of realizing the full extent of human possibilities, in synthesis a truly free world.",

I intend to discuss this topic in this brief article in the hope that maybe a have something to say that is not said often, although I do not have any hope of saying something that no one said before.\nHate is a feeling that need to be cultivated, it is not like anger, that comes and goes away in a few moments, it is something primitive, a very ancient motivation that give us strength to do unimaginable things, to do our worst to extract a sick form of pleasure out of the suffer of our enemies. The hate we feel is a powerful fuel, but is also a devastating drug; it devours the good of ours souls and make us indifferent to the suffering of innocents. When we act move by hate we lose the best of our capacity to reason, even though we are capable of using and incredible amount of geniality to achieve our goals, when someone is acting move by hate the empathy is lost and with that a good part of our reason.\nCuriously we frequently feel angry with those people that act against their own interest, with those that betray their identities, for example, it is common to see on the internet feminists calling women that do not believe in their ideals and that fight against some point of their agenda, gender traitors, women that suffer from internalized misogyny.\n Putting aside the discussion about the accuracy of such terms, even if we assume that, for example, a woman that call her self an anti-feminist is acting against her gender and also she hates her self, that should not be a reason show her anger and contempt, on the contrary, there is not any person in the world that deserves more compassion and solidarity than a person who hates himself/herself, because a person suffering for such horrible form of hate cannot love no one fully, and can only truly have a meaningful live once it break the heavy chains of hate.",

That is the big problem that happen every time you learn a new language, inevitably you have to reduce the contact you have with the languages you know, with is sad because the best thing about learning a new language is to explore all the new possibilities that it give you.\nTo sum up, the problem that I have briefly discussed in this essay, exist not only in language but also in all knowledge. As you learn things, you start to realize that to learn new things you have to spend less time with what is familiar to you, with is not necessarily a bad thing, but is something to keep in mind if you value quality over quantity.",

Therefore, if we pay attention to the physical effort necessary to play even the most challenging video games and compare with any sport played at the Olympics, we can see that gamers do not fit our current definition of athletes.\nSecond, are video games compatible with the Olympic code of conduct?\nThe major problem with video games at the Olympics is that not every game represent the values of the Olympic committee, and even the games that do, fall with another major problem: They are intellectual property of software companies, and that makes them different of any other Olympic sport. The only way of solve this problem is to use open source games stead of the most popular games like LOL. However, even with that solution we still have the problem of have an Olympic game without athletes.\nTo sum up, in my humble opinion the best way include esports in the Olympic games is to accept only open source games at the competition, and to change our definition of athlete to accept activities that demand more psychological effort than physical effort, but that would imply the possibility of include much more possible sports as candidates to become Olympic like chess, for example.",

But the problem is that a life cannot be examined by pain and pleasures calculations, because we are so attach to these brief moments of happiness that a person can died happy because of just one of them. Human live is an ocean of sadness and madness, but humanity is such a strange thing that most of us still make the choice of keep swimming to feel the diluted taste of the feel drops of joy in it.\nThat is the reason why world views like utilitarianism and antinatalism do not appeal to most of us, we have to much hope even when we fool ourselves thinking that we don't. Our instincts fight to no let us drown in our sorrow. That is the burden of humanity, the consciousness of the power of our  survival instincts and the weakness of our reason against it.\nSo what are we after all? madman? sage? something different? An error? The point is, having free will or not we are like Sartre said condemned to be free.",

The intellectual is by nature an altruist, he or she spend time reading books it don't like, seeing things that can make anyone sick and listen to unpleasant people.

To be great is to be aware of the immensity of our universe, is to embrace complexity and perceive things in a systematic way, once you see how big the world is and how little your presence in it make a difference you can start to perfect yourself in order to achieve the maximum of your limited capacity.\nWe are constantly planning, and the brightest minds of our time often show a great amount of optimism, that I consider unwarranted to say the least. I read articles about the possibility of travel faster than light and explore planets beyond the solar system, but that seems very unlikely to happen, I think the human species will die trapped in the solar system. I have the same skepticism about the emergence of conscience in AI, I think is something that can happen, but is not inevitable. My main point of disagreement with those who believe in the inevitability of a conscious AI, is that as far as we know conscience is something that required the ability the fell something, conscience without feeling has no meaning.\nTo sum up, I think we must be aware of our insignificance in order to prevent all the damage cause by our hubris and to truly know ourselves and our real possibilities of fulfillment.",

Creating things like a link tax, and making mechanisms to verify copyrights violations on the internet mandatory.\nThis kind of proposal can and will certainly harm the freedom of expression and the businesses of all EU citizens, and may have impacts all over the world. What make me angry and afraid, is the fact the this proposal is having too little media coverage, and what is worse, the citizens of the EU don't seen to be giving much attention to it.\nThe question we should be asking ourselves is: How things like that happen? How representative democracy can misrepresent so badly the interests of the people? What make us not care about the questions that should concern us?\nThe questions that I'm asking to myself, are probably questions that have been answers by hundreds of different thinkers in the past, but I feel that we must question any sign of apathy in our society, until the day we finally awake to the political discussions that need to happen or die while sleeping.",

What I mean, is that theses classes were given given by the teachers like someone telling a fairy tale, the teacher never explain how he/she knew all those facts about historical events, and the students never asked.\nIn my humble opinion the schools should start to teach the students the basic concepts of historiography and the scientific method. Only after learn how to judge the evidences about the facts that they are told in class, they could learn to see history and all other subjects, as a topic open to criticism and revision. Every branch of knowledge require of those who really want to learn it, to understand the scientific method and in what kind of evidence is used as the metaphysical base of knowledge.\nUnfortunately, our educational system reserved this kind of knowledge only for university students, which is absurd, because in order to really learn something, you need to be able to question your teachers.",

      "body": "One of the things that I have realized after thinking for a long time about how a person can achieve happiness, is that a good way to get there is finding multiple sources of happiness. When you find something or someone that make you happy, you could considered lucky, but it is wise to have a plan B.\nI apply this logic to my life and it have been working very well, one of my sources of happiness is reading, and reading is an excellent source of happiness, because there are more good books in the world than I can read, therefore reading is an inexhaustible source of happiness. The same could said about music and art in general. Therefore, I think is a good idea to look for unlimited sources of happiness they are the most reliable. One can argue that all happiness is provisory, and that the search for happiness is a waste of time, but that pessimist argument adds nothing to the discussion about happiness, the goal is not to question the nature of the most pleasant thing that someone can fell (happiness), but just to find it.",

Everything we create and nourish is in a certain way fragile, everything can be destroyed by a sequence of events out of our control. Sometimes I think about the possibility of a meteor falling on the Earth and crushing everything we care about, and that is the kind of world we live in, a world where all we have can be taken away from us.\nTo live in an unpredictable world we must embrace chaos, we must learn to make the best with what we have. The ability to recover from a turnaround is the must precious skill of a survivor. Embrace chaos is something that can be terrifying, because we never know exactly what the future have reserve for us, but it is also something beautiful, because is the most efficient way of extract the best of what life can give to us.\nTo sum up, that is what life is all about, a journey to the unknown.",

And the answer to that question probably is: more than we should.\n<h2>If pleasure is everything, the denial of reality is a logical step</h2>\nIf we set happiness and pleasure as the only values in our moral code, we can easily arrive at the conclusion that we need to avoid every source of suffer in our lives, including the suffer that know the reality can cause. To do that we would need to numb ourselves, to cast aside everything that can lead us to the path of discovery that leads us to a better sense of the world we live. That path of denial, lies and illusions would leads to some kind of artificial reality some kind of world where pain doesn't exist. A world without pain sounds like a good place, so why we resist it?\n<h2>For some reason we choose to suffer when the reward is the truth</h2>\nThere must have something in our nature that make at least some of us choose the truth instead of the comfort of lies, I don't know exactly what it is, but is certainly something that make us human, that make us different.\n<h2> A deeper connection with reality bring us closer to a sense of meaning</h2>\nWhen we distance ourselves from reality, we become alienated from the world. Our curiosity, our desire to know ourselves, other and the world that surround us, give to us a sense of meaning.\nMaybe that is the answer, we find meaning in life when we see the mysteries of the universe be solved beyond us, and when I talk about the mysteries of the universe, I'm not talking about just cosmological mysteries, I'm talking about the sources of the short moments of fulfillment in our lives. A illusion cannot give us that, only something  so expensive as the truth can.",

      "body": "In his newest book the philosophy professor Stephen Asma talks about the function that religion have in our society, one of the functions mentions is the provision of comfort from the pain cause by the loss a of love one and the hardships of life.\nBut saying that religion provide comfort, although that can be true, fail to take in to account the other side of the problem. First of all, if the message of a religion is false, meaning that, there is no god or one of the dogmas of a religion is false, say that this religion provide comfort is the same that say that a lie provides comfort, a lie can indeed provides comfort, but what is the cost?\n\nWho would willing accept to live base on a lie? Who would choose an illusion stead of the reality? For those who would make that choice, religion is certainly a good path to follow, but if you prefer truth stead of joy, you should think more carefully before become a believer.\n\nAnother problem with religion is the comcept of eternal joy and eternal suffer, think about how much you would suffer if you knew that someone you love is going to hell. If you believe in eternal punishment, every bit of joy and comfort that you can have when you think about some kind of paradise, can immediately be replace with the constant agony of the thought of eternal punishment. Everytime that I think about how nice would be if  the christian paradise exist, I immediately cast that thought away and seek comfort in the idea that there is no hell.",

      "body": "Cultural appropriation is a heat topic in the public debate, there are the ones that consider cultural appropriation a aggression and a form of imperialism and those who believe that it is a good thing and that we should always try to incorporate what is best in others cultures in our culture.\nThere are two points that I consider valid topics of discussion among those who oppose cultural appropriation, the first is that sometimes we incorporate thing from others cultures with out give credit to them, and the second is that sometimes we devalue others cultures that we have culturally appropriate.\nRegarding the problem of proper credit for other cultures, although I thing it is important to be aware of the origins of things like our language, customs, traditions and so on, I don't think that we need to be reminded all the time that something have African origins for example, that would be tiresome and unproductive. Regarding the problem of devaluation we should keep in mind that is almost impossible to compare two cultures and define with one is the best, we can only affirm that a culture is better than other in a specific aspect and base on a specific standard, we can for example say that regarding the defense of human rights the Western culture have been showing better results than the Eastern culture.\nThere is a book that have been published recently in Brazil called \nCulturas Shakespearianas (Shakespearean Cultures), written by the professor of Comparative Literature João Cezar de Castro Rocha, this book is about the hegemonic culture (the culture that we envy) and the Shakespearean Culture, the culture that appropriate the best aspects of the hegemonic culture in order to become the hegemonic culture. That is what happened when the Roman culture replace the Greek culture, not only appropriating the Greek culture, but also devouring it. All the evidence leads to the conclusion that the process of appropriation of the hegemonic culture by the Shakespearean Culture is a never ending process.\nTo sum up, in order to compete with what we consider to be the best we must appropriate what makes it the best, and even devour it.",

Even when you know all of that, when someone you care about is facing a life risk, like a disease or an accident, or when yourself is facing one, we experience one mix of unpleasant sensations, like fear, anger, despair and sadness. What make a phenomenon so ordinary as death be so remarkable in our lifes? \nMaybe it is because we like to pretend that we cannot die suddenly, we like to give to ourselves an illusion of safety, but we are never safe, a life well lived is a life of struggle, because life only start to make sense when we find something that is worth dying for, before that you don't live at all, you have just wandering with out purpose your whole live.\nOnce we are truly conscious of the presence of death in our lives, the pain of loss is not so severe anymore, because be conscious of death is to be aware of the fact that you can lose everything you love at any moment, and when you know that you can find value more easily and appreciate what you have much more. Live life to its fullest is find value in things and in people, appreciate it and cultivate everything that is really precious, to live is to be aware of death and to preserve the meaning of life.",

      "body": "One of the common arguments in defence of religion, is that with out religion life has no meaning, that religion is the set of beliefs that gives our lives a purpose. But the question is: Is that statement correct?\nif you think about the abrahamic religions (Judaism, Christianity and Islam), you can see that all of them have the same basic premise: There is only one god. Nevertheless this religions have differents dogmas and practices, and besides that, they have internal divisions inside de religion, and sects.\nSo if religion is a way of trying to find the truth about the world that is often based on an allegedly sacred text,  how can we have so many disputes about what is the truth, and what is the will of god/gods in the religious world?\nA possible answer to that question is that because of the fact that every religious person experience his/her religion in a different way, the meaning that every person extracts from religion is different. So despite the fact the many of the existent religions appears to give easy answers to fundamental questions about our lives, the subjectivity involved in any religious endevour, turn the task of find answers quite difficult.\nTo sum up, the journey to find reliable knowledge through religion is like searching for a needle in a haystack at best , and a waste of time at worse. The big problem with religion will always be dogmatic thought, if you can't find meaning by yourself you will always be lost.",

Nevertheless to be immortal an AI should have the ability to transfer his conscience to another body, but is that really immortality or just recreation?\nImagine the following scenario: A conscious AI have all its data storage in one HD, HD1, and that HD is very old, so the AI need to have its data transfer to another HD, HD2.\nWhen this transfer is perform, the HD2 receive a copy of the data of HD1, not the actual information, soo, we can say that when we erase the data of HD1, the AI died, and we have a copy of that being in HD2. If you think about that scenario, you will realize, that we are facing the same problems that we would have, if we have invented a machine, capable of \"transfer\" a human consciense to another body.\nTo sum up, in the same way we cannot be really immortal, because the everything is perishable, a machine cannot be immortal either.",
