Philosophy Questioning ideas

avatar

Many times our parents instilled in us that it is the best thing for us, I think that is valid until a certain age, but also until a certain age we cannot let anyone impose their way of thinking on us, once we are older and know how to differentiate between good and evil we can make our own decisions, and we can think for ourselves.

I remember reading that Socrates was condemned to death for questioning the existence of the Gods by corrupting the thinking of the young people of that time, however after reading very well I realized that Socrates was only questioning the ideas that they wanted to instill in them.
As always the power is who tells us what we have to do and what we have to think.

But one of the things that led Socrates to go down in history is that he had the opportunity to withdraw his words to save himself from the death penalty with respect to his discernment of the ideas he had of the designs of those Gods that many worship. And he did not, he did not withdraw his thoughts and he stood firm in his thoughts until the end he drank in poison.

This power that has existed for more than 2000 years only wants us to be submissive and silent without true opinion, much less to question some things that in the eyes of everyone are very wrong.

But since we do not oppose power, that power which can corrupt any thought, that power which involves others and makes them fall in love with ideas that are not healthy for anyone, it is power that knows that it can dominate minds and thoughts, and weakness is the ignorance of those people, and to the extent that there are more ignorant people, power becomes stronger.

But since we can change the world, it is not that I want to change it from my perspective. I know that I don't let myself be dominated by power without becoming a revolutionary - a word that is used a lot in this world to identify change, but in its turn is a big lie.

Another way that power wants to dominate minds with ideas that only benefit a few and harm many, but that has to do with everything I write with Socrates from my point of view everything because he opposed a system imposed by the power to dominate and he opposed it only by questioning those ideas.

We can all question any idea, but anyone who reads this publication can question me. It is his individual right, of course, and he can also suggest his point of view.

We can't let anyone impose their way of thinking on us and change our way of thinking

We too, in a way, have the power not to let darkness impose itself upon us, and the best way is always to question ideas.

Hello Professor @lanzjoseg
Even at this point in life I believe that power will always exist, as will those beneath it. At the same time there will be those who oppose it and those who do not. In the end I think it's about living happily within our reality, having and using that possibility to question the things around us, always from respect.

power will always exist as you put it, my friend. however, we also have it and we must not allow it to be taken away.

questioning unhealthy ideas is a form of power called education.

@lanzjoseg questioning ideas or approaches, which we consider to be wrong, should be interpreted as a gesture of communication, however, some people contradict any objective point of view by means of heated, rude, and somewhat over-toned expressions. I think, as individual beings we have the right to question under respectful communication styles, because there will be the key for a healthy communication.

Thank you for sharing your point of view.

I very much agree with your opinion my good friend,
questioning can become a healthy form of communication as long as it is not attacked.
Thanks for visiting my publication.

Hello friend I agree with you nobody has to interfere in our way of thinking and seeing life, I believe that everyone is responsible for it from a certain age and we must defend our philosophy of life and what we believe!

Each person must think for himself, in fact, since we are very young parents must teach their children to people by themselves.

Good article, I think that in these days where information abounds having a mind capable of questioning is a blessing.

We must always question especially when we do not agree with what they tell us.

The only higher study than philosophy is spirituality. Some things are devastating to try and ignore. For example, death is as certain as things get. Wondering about where we ultimately come from is the same but tends to fall to those with more convenience. God is the name we have for our creator. It is a capitalized name that differs from the lowercase gods. Not everyone makes this distinction.
