...whereas ANYBODY could have composed CharlesDilkes' post.
Someone equipped with ACTUAL intelligence would have formulated a more interesting reply.

And then whining about quantity. FIVE POST. What a scandal!
Eew! How often I've seen this!
Isn't it amazing how 99% of those drooling about a philospher can't even hold a conversation?
It's PATHETIC.
They actually think that the mere act of claiming they are very much into Copleston, or Derrida, or some other promoted anally-retentive 'thinker', will actually ensure they themselves will be considered 'very intelligent'.

Meaning you are just about able to suggest state philosophers are extremely interesting -allowing you to bask in their glory and suggest you are yourself one of the priveleged humans equipped with sufficient intelligence to grasp their work- but you can't actually make a substantive observation.
How very typical...

@suddenlyitsobvious Five posts that I think say more about you than anything else. I'd be so bold as to say that you don't really know enough about philosophy as a discipline to make the sort of diatribe you've just made.

...communicates, unless absolutely necessary. He's obviously a pompous egomaniac -meaning creativity or true intelligence is excluded.
Mind you, his works might be more interesting than suggested by this interview because they are often/typically 'edited' -if you can take a hint, but I see no reason for exploring it at this point.
If you opine though he has made some brilliant connections between historical ideas, I certainly wouldn't mind hearing which ones...
hehheh this is less Frederick Copleston on Schopenhauer as much as it is Bryan Magee on Shopenhauer!
