    Debate Are people more afraid of death now than in the past?

    I was close to five years old and maybe a bit less. It was typical afternoon heading to night. My mother usually -at that time- preparing our evening supper, and oftenly among other delights she made for us (me and my sister) pastry leaves with feta (local fresh cheese) we call "tyro-pitakia"...

    Debate Are people more afraid of death now than in the past?

    Maybe is a need to know but surelly is mostly not to fear. Maybe is just an anathema an aphorism or an apotropaic approach for those that will happen and we can't avoid. It is very interesting what you say. I dont' know "what we haven't done yet" - allthough we could but we didn't. You mean for...

    Debate Are people more afraid of death now than in the past?

    Since, we dont know what death is, why not to try to question it ? Is it a foundamental element of the event of Life? Is it just a parameter into a dynamic evoluted system forces of universe? Is it an autonomous entity which counteracts against Life in the Eternity? There is no science to...

    Debate Are people more afraid of death now than in the past?

    There is a possibility if we could live for ever, maybe we wouldn't love each other... and maybe there wouldn't be any reason for -any of the- civilizations to exist. Love and civilization requires further analysis but I justly reffered to, for the reasons being at the periphery of the Death...

    Who said that: Philosophy is study of death? The same one who mentions about Eros (love) at the "symposium"... He is the founder of the term "Philosophia", which considered from him as the "absolut science" (among with architecture and music). Platon was his name and at that time Athens was in...

    Politics Will Russia Attack Ukraine?

    We getting in turbulent times and there is enough to blame all sides but the victims of that are the Ukranians and the Russian people and lesser the Western alliance. I think that: That was the end of the "end of the history", and the meta-modern narration of an zelotious determinism...
