Hobbes or Rousseau

[Fire_Monkey]

Hobbes believes that Humankind is naturally evil, society controls us with law.
Rousseau believes that Humankind is naturally good, society corrupts us by seperation.

man hes ugly, but his ideas have sure shaped yours and my life.

Rousseau all the way. I'm not a pessimist.

Good and evil is subjective, Hobbes and Calvin were blind men checking out the elephant.

I like the one where he disfigures snowmen. Then his parents discuss how nutso he is. Lol. Rofl. Just cracks me up. He also builds a snow cannon, and makes a snowman with a hole in it right in front tof the cannon. Good ole Calvin & Hobbes.

Hamma and Jaged, do you mean to tell me that you have never heard of the comic strip Calvin and Hobbes by Bill Watterson?

I order you both to your local bookstore to buy the books! NOW!

seriously, i have most of the books, they are great, true classics

...this was supposed to be a phisilophical discussion, but hell. Calvin and Hobbes is a great comic strip.

Calvin and Hobbes IS philisophical

[OneManArmy]

yea I wondered how the hell we got on to a comic....


but If you read calvin and hobbes you will notice that when hobbes gets philisophical he does not follow the real hobbes way of thinking. The tiger seems to be more of an optimist. but I loved that comic too, that shit got deep some times

[Arshune]

I'm going with Hobbes on this one, people suck.
