Southland Times: Philosophers Union

Published letter to the Editor:
7th September 2012




I would like to complain that there is not enough philosophy in this Publication, As a member of the local artist and Philosophers community I would like to point out that in times of Doubt and Uncertainty people need philosophers to put life into perspective. We live in unknown territory where improvements science and technology can change winners into losers in a blink of an eye, if philosophers don’t keep up it will hurt!

As our Nemesis: Politicians, Shakespeare nailed it when he wrote “Like inside plants two opposed kings encamp themselves in man, Grace and Rude Will and where the worser is predominant full soon the canker cancer eats up that plant.
With that in mind I propose that any good journalist should also be a good gardener and do some weeding.
