The word philosophy comes from the Greek φιλοσοφία (philosophia), which literally means love of wisdom.
I know of no better example of the display of the pure love of wisdom than the Philosophy Now Forum.
In Ancient Greece, the sophists were a category of teachers who specialized in using the tools of philosophy and rhetoric for the purpose of teaching aretê — excellence, or virtue. For those Hellenistic
Greeks Sophia was the personification of wisdom.
Throughout the history of man lovers of wisdom emerge through all walks of life to seek nothing more than the gaze of Sophia.
True philosophers must continually touch the moment, sense their reality, and interpret what they think and feel. Today's media demands distilled thought the type of thoughts or post that are found on the Philosophy Now Forum.
True philosophers must test their perceptions, thoughts, and theories. There is no better testing ground than the most legitimate philosophy forum on the planet; the Philosophy Now Forum.
Today there is no better published example and definition of the word philosopher above that of the active members of the Philosophy Now Forum.
Each and every active member, to varying degrees literates their perception of the love of wisdom for our entire humanity to see. And we do it, collectively, solely, for the love of wisdom.
We bow our head to no one. Spit your best and back it up. No one here is a face, we are just a manifested spirit.
Each verbalization is an untruth. Yet untruth, when understood, can be used as a tool, a tool to point to a greater truth. Each greater truth unlocking a new perception, each perception tested, toned & tooled.
We don't publish our love of wisdom for money. Fortune or fame is not our goal. What is happening now at the Philosophy Now Forum has never happened within the history of man. This happening is beyond unusual.
The Philosophy Now Forum is an intellectual snapshot taken by a naked spirit.
Our forum is virtually limitless. The audience we post to is mankind, the entirety of mankind. There is no entrance fee. But this site comes with a price. You leave your accolades, degrees, and pride at the door.
We speak to the audience of mankind.
The Philosophy Now Forum is the personification of modern philosophers expressing the most important philosophies that mankind has ever heard. Free. Everyday. Without question or pretense.
Just philosophy; pure, unadulterated philosophy.

........................................................Sophia speaks through man.
Sophia speaks unchained. Sophia speaks just as easily through the alcoholic as through the academic.
In most cases, in my opinion, the alcoholic is more honest and more easily understood.
..........A drink to Sophia at the most important forum on earth!
