[QUOTE]Originally posted by sheba76: [QB] I have been taking this Philosophy class. (Logic) It is so hard for me. My brain feels like it's gone through the wringer. I'm not a very logical thinker. I was told it would help me with Calculus. So, I'm taking this class. I am enjoying it. But it is so hard for me. LOL We are always having to write about things like: Does the fast paced world we live in affect our logical thinking? Does it make us do things we normally wouldn't do,if we had taken the time to think it through? And a lot more intense questions of the like. But I believe yes it does affect us, negatively. That brought me to my question. Why do we continually do dumb things.evem if we know the consequences, and do not like the?. But still because we are in a hurry, do them? Example: It's cold here now. The water is cold. I wash my hands at least 50 times a day. I am a little obsessive about this, especially this time of year. I know the water will be cold(ice cold), when I turn on the faucet. I know it will leave me sitting there with my fingers hurting and throbbing for a good minute or so. So why do I always just turn it on, stick my hands in, and pay the price? To make myself look even more stupid. I put soap on my hands then turn water on.........hurts too bad to wash it off.........so I sit there like a dummy hurting and checking the water every few seconds. It hurtssssss. My kids say, "Mom, you're so goofy" LOL So trying to be in a hurry, actually makes some things take longer. Because we did not take the time to consider things logically. Are humans just contradictory and illogical by nature? Why do we choose the easy or quick way, then complain about the consequences? Does anyone else do this? Or other things like this? Or am I the only "blonde"? (as my kids say) Shukran :) [/QB][/QUOTE]
