Aristotle and the Good Stuff
[ send me this paper ]
(7 pp) One of the things, that seems to happen
whenever we think of philosophy, is this perverse
mental block that flings itself into the air,
calling something similar to, "Danger! Will
Robinson. Danger! Danger!" Many of us get stuck
there - take the warning and run the opposite
direction. Take a deep breath, tell yourself,
that thinking is not harmful to your heath and
give this Greek guy a chance. This discussion
will focus on some of the "good stuff:" the ideas
of reason, virtue, and happiness as defined by
Aristotle.
