A Question Post 1

The question that we must ask ourselves is how should one live; a simple statement that belies a much deeper philosophical inquiry. We are a people that are shackled by our refusal to think critically and constructively about the world and our place in it. To ask not only what should I do, but also what could be done. Perhaps the answers to the great epistemological questions lie within science but for all the intellectual disciplines that it has so far encompassed the simple fact that we still can’t prove anything remains, we are still human “instruments” observing the “world”. Yet in this forum I would like to take the time, which itself is inconstant, to examine Value; both its role in shaping our societal framework that informs our logic and as to whether it in of itself is discernable given the limited scope of the apparatus of the mind.
