It's hard to know what I think anymore. Give me a topic, I can tell you my opinion. But my opinions just happen during the day, without me going back and really thinking on them, you know? I just think how I think and that's that. But philosophy club at school makes me question my opinions and explain them. But how can I explain that morals are not set by a god, or that there IS in fact evil in the world? That in a society of rapists, rape would be a-okay. Opinions are opinions, and once you learn how to listen to both sides and then argue your point, you can't exactly sound intelligent, now can you? See, if I ramble long enough I'll eventually get to a point. Yay, me!
Voltaire, a famous french philosopher of the Enlightenment said something along the lines of this "I may not agree with what you said, but I shall die fighting for your right to say it" obviously not his exact words, but think on that one.
