We have football fantasy league and
baseball, hockey, basketball and even a bowling
fantasy league, but we don’t have a philosophy
fantasy league. So I would pick in my
philosophy fantasy league, Socrates,
followed by Hume. Socrates can play both
offense and defense, and he seems to be able
to score at will. Hume’s strength is defensive.
The strength of his position is undeniable.
Kant’s position looks really strong, but it falls
apart easily, so I wouldn’t pick him.
So who would you pick on your philosophy
fantasy league?
“Impenitent”]that depends on the object of the game…
“if it is to woo chicks, definitely not Nietzsche…
if it is to corrupt humanity, any number of religious types (including statists) will do fine”…
Religious types as those who believe in capitalism?
As with any game, its the players who decide what the
rules are. My rules are, think about the arguments
one philosopher might put up against another. Could
Kant defend against Hume? I doubt it.
That would be my rules.
