The book thief.

This morning I went to your favorite bookstore to restock philosophical treatises. The shelves with the scientific literature as the least popular, hidden in the depths of the hall, and the philosophy and all in the corner, uglie its only religious-esoteric fiction (which is true). The last section (and thus near me) rubbed wretched form Dzyadok. Realizing after a while that I stick on the beautiful book plan for a long time, grandpa, defying decency, and apparently taking me for his spiritual accomplice, began quite incriminating to pull out the books bar codes, obviously with the aim of further misappropriation.I, at that time, this phenomenon showed indifference,and took everything that was needed, was gone. But since then they started to torture me thinking:why did I act that way?At first I wrote off all the situational, like grandpa old, pathetic and desperate, and Tutorial on reading Tarot cards, which he decided prihvatizirovat, and so need to be removed from sale and burn (along with the Tarot cards and those who are wondering). However, having dug yourself in deeper, I came to the conclusion that whether it is a successful young man is stealing dear to my heart Kafka, I would have done exactly the same. Continuing his reflexive excavation, I made about two unpleasant (from the point of view of Christian morality postvictorian) output: firstly, I'm kind of indifferent to the theft ( and indifference, in this case, the same promotion),and secondly (what a special surprise for me did not), I'm probably a racist, because searching in my head situations in which I still snitched, I found such only one: if books would steal Gypsies, or, say, Tajiks on these types I would have told immediately.
Overall, this experience gave me (and hence all of us) fertile ground for reflection: why do we, when confronted with the theft, are neutral? Congenital thievery Russian spirit? Commandment do not nastuchit? Sorry for stealing? Scraps yunesheskogo rebellion, manifested, in particular, and in minor offences?
What would you do in this situation? Well, tell us about similar cases-surely they were the majority.

What are you saying, buddy? Well, what's the Koran? We are now on religion talk. And religion is that religion, which he considers proper, Mr. Gauguin, as well as the correct philosophy , is the philosophy he likes, the truth-something that he believes to be true. After all, he's an idealist, a man of high moral qualities, and all the others who do not share his views - cattle, reading shit. So you don't forget.

Yeah. That is, tore the barcodes of several books, and privatized only one? Clear-clear.

Of the above-described surprising just how with this attitude to their product, the owner of a bookstore still has not closed. The monitoring system turns out to be missing, assistants - consultants is also available. Grandfather so its bookstore will open.

needed to idealistic views of stupidity, naivety and a coward before reality
Here I suggest you don't bother to Soviet propaganda of the spill, and to pay more attention to the meaningfulness of words, especially the so-called reality, this can help a fair portion of analytic philosophy. Although, assuming you mean that, I would like to remind you that idealism as a philosophical position is at variance with reality only in the imagination and fiery speeches materialists. There is a position of objective idealism, where I actually stand.

PS Actually, we can consider the development of the human mind in the form of the famous Hegelian triad (this is purely my household metaphor, in this case do not claim the analysis).
First, a person is guided by everyday common sense, sometimes romantic and dreamy (what the Lord materialists now dubbed as idealism, although it is rather primitive and primitive idealism, coupled with his understanding of by the materialists, who has never shone particularly mind), this is the first stage - being. Then in the course of the dialectical development he's getting in position, like materialism, atheism, liberalism, nihilism etc...Its become thinkers Marx, Nietzsche, Freud, libertarian economic thinkers, etc., even Dawkins (I know, thinkers mixed, but the stage is heterogeneous, though, and have its own trends)... but it keeps the innocence of the first stage, thinking that the abrupt change of the Outlook of the initial level - it is the truth. This is the second stage - denial (apparently, specifically, you are now stuck in it). And finally a still higher stage of development of the mind - the negation of the negation. In spirit it is somewhat similar to the first (as in Hegel this is the case), while maintaining some positive experience was the second man back to the roots again become an idealist, realizing the ridiculousness of the thoughts and thinkers of the second stage,but to understand them and taking into account (in Hegel this is called withdrawal - denial and withholding of experience deny, and it happens when you transition from first to second). Here thinkers become more noble and intelligent people - Socrates, Plato, Christ, the fathers of the Church, I mentioned Pascal, Descartes and Leibniz, Kant, Hegel finally. By the way, again - Hegel, the father of dialectics, based on his historical notes (apart from works) and the biographies, was this path that I have indicated.
ColonelJason wrote:
rightly discovered Nietzsche idealism Pascal slow death of the mind
Well Pascal, along with Leibniz, and Descartes is the greatest and most versatile genius of the New Time. Therefore, the characteristics given to him to Nietzsche, who as a thinker is not worth a nail of the above persons, I don't really care.

Strange situation - all of these are well achieved (I won't speculate who, but still) with mass materialism, which we see as the modern West, partly because we have given that last century Russia defended under the banner of Marxist dialectics. Yes, and I must admit, the freshness and truth of leftist thoughts about evil power and not the people is highly questionable.

Strange question. Not even to mention the fact that the answer is self-evident, it is not clear what you mean: the fact that philosophical literature need some special time, or you principle am surprised that people have time to read?

To break a few of the barcodes from different instances of the same books - not?

Video surveillance system in the bookstore thing bestolkovyy (at least to prevent vorovstva, she will be able after the fact to confirm the fact of the offense), as all people are with books fixed in the rack, and to see what they do there camera need to push in each shelf and to keep the staff of hundreds of employees looking at the monitors. Assistants-consultants it was full, but as I said, it was in the farthest corner, where they delot nothing. Anyway, you're probably a little surprised to learn how people steal for all sorts of shopping, but something I have not heard that any grandfather opened his roundabout. Moreover, you theft get paid, since such costs are included in the pricing.

It is difficult to assume, as the location of the racks can raise my self-esteem, however, much in the reasoning of the idealists inaccessible to ordinary people...

Of course you can, but since no criticism of the Hegelian triad does not stand - Otkrovenie verbiage the likes of which any self-respecting demagogue issues at Breakfast in five copies, that would not lose grip - no reason to do so that I can see. I prefer the company of Feuerbach.

Again you confuse yourself with everyone. I do not deny, and simply hold the opposite point of view, and although the denial of the fact that I don't think true follows from this point of view , it does not lie in its basis.

Unfortunately, as the modern West, and we, the population has not yet recovered from this terrible disease, and very many continue in one form or another to believe in various notions.

And to take only one instance, not two? Sometimes the seller puts a few magnetic barcodes, especially on expensive books. One bar code on the inside cover, the other page of the book. Yes, and it would be more logical that the grandfather broke the barcode(s) from one book, that would not arouse suspicion of his long fuss for visitors/consultants, and surveillance systems. Yes, and poor grandfather and grandfather not only should arouse the attention of consultants, but not in my competence to judge their quality of work.

But I suspect what happened is you, as soon as you have to ensure the tools will still prefer to move somewhere where archaic human rights are still in force - when it comes to spaseniya of his mortal material body, idealists show an extremely enviable zeal comparable to their entusiasmo in the destruction of all life who do not share their philanthropic beliefs.

Unfortunately, the middle ages was not quite as good as you predstavlyaeete at fantasy literature. Dirt, ignorance, poverty, widespread violence, wiping feet on the lower strata of the population (of course with preventing them to stop being such),a complete leveling of the value of human life, and, of course, complete regression of science - a time of unchallenged rule of the Church worship is the most stupid, unproductive, mediocre passing time in the history of mankind. Enough to see what humanity had achieved until the seventh century, after which trinadcatogo, and it becomes clear that dark dark century was called not just. It is, of course, of course - how the Church could use all the leverage to the power of ignorance did not stop, as it is obvious that without the ignorance of its activities impossible.
