Philosophy Wire: Contraception. Fear. Children.

Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2017-06-21]: Men can take birth control shots to prevent pregnancy in their female partners, according to a new study. [1] We are afraid to have children. Because we hate our Father. Humanity is now driven by hatred. Disguised as happiness and freedom. But we are not free. We are bound to this world. Destined to live tragic lives. With tears.

Philosophy Wire: The “right” in not having children?

Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2016-02-12]: Fighting for the “right” to be sterilized! Because she does not want to have kids. [1] As a CHILD of someone else, she surely has the right. (she does?) In the Old Testament there exist stories of people who lost their children because of their sins. Stories which many people believe that are cruel. How cruel do those stories seem now? Self-destruction was always in the DNA of humans. No one stopped us from eating the apple. Consistency is what the world lacks. And acceptance of the consequences when these come.

Philosophy Wire by Spiros Kakos [2012-10-02]: The new spectacular film by Haneke (Amour) reminds us of what we already knew but have forgotten: that society in Greece is light years BEHIND societies in western Europe! And that is a GOOD thing! When our parents are dying, we do not need weeks just to see them because we “were busy”…

 

PS. And for those Europeans who read this, YES, we ARE busy working the longest hours in the whole European Union. Search your statistics…
