NaTuraLism...*


Naturalism (viii B.C.E.)

Naturalism is a flow that search for the ways of nature. In philosophy, naturalism says that ''all real is nature, and all nature is real.''
Tales of Miletus, was one of the first philosopher, he say what nature really is, and he was the first that gives explanations of natural events without the use of supernatural causes.
Then Anaximaundros, explains the atomic theory (explains how nature is), he says that everything is made from invisible pieces that should be able to fix, like a puzzle.
Then comes a man called Aristotle that agreed the idea of Anaximaundros, but he says that every atom is very different from others, because they form different things.
So the main idea of naturalism is that the people star searching the way to know more about nature, and they try to express it as most as they can. This flow brought many questions and many discovers.

love of knowledge*


Most of the times we think philosophy is something difficult to learn (us a subject), something difficult to do, something difficult to understand. But the truth is that philosophy is something we do all the days. Are those group of questions we do along our day, questions about our existence, about values, about knowledge, about beauty, and we cant answer them.
Philosophy exist since humans exist. it exist because they start writing about their thoughts and their believes. Socrates create this word that means Philos=love of Sophia=knowledge. in the age he lived there were the sophist, that were people taht supose to teach other people how to think. but they werent philosofers, because they didnt love knowledge, they only teach.

Something that is characteristic of philosophy is that, it isn't the truth but is something that help us to understand our existence, and those questions that help us solve problems, and stuff like that.
So all of us are related with philosophy, because we all think.

Philosophy is interesting because is the thing that make us think in why we are here, and why that things exist. And are questions that we cant solve because is difficult to do it. But we can have conclusions, and my conclusion is that all of us are philosophy because we all for part of the live of other, so we as a reality of someone, we are always in the philosophy of the other.
