The ancient Greek philosophers...remained more faithful to the Idea of the philosopher than their modern counterparts have done. “When will you finally begin to live virtuously?” said Plato to an old man who told him he was attending classes on virtue. The point is not always to speculate, but ultimately to think about applying our knowledge. Today, however, he who lives in conformity with what he teaches is taken for a dreamer. Kant

Osama's Death
A lot of people are celebrating over Osama Bin Laden's death, but why are people thinking that this is okay?

I want to hear why you think it would be okay to cheer over a human death or President Obama's comment, "justice has been done."
