If anybody's interested in the Birth of Sociology, I typed most of my lecture notes as a study guide for test tomorrow.
I uploaded it to Google Docs to share with you so they don't go to waste, lol.

What is Sociology...(or is it like psychology... if so heck if you need help with either psychology, physiology, or philosophy I'm RIGHT HERE...don't hesitate to ask for help : )
Edit:
Um don't answer the above questions...I made a thread for that on off-topic...but then...
I looked over your work...
Did you know Socrates was probably the ugliest person to exist? And above that, one of the smartest people of all time, maybe even smarter than einstein?
Plato, was Socrates' student, very influential, right next to Aristodil and democritus. Mind my spelling : )
Edit:
Nice work on that "birth, it outlines some key things everyone should look over and think about.

Most of his questions can't be studied. They're purely philosophy and opinion?

Most of his questions can't be answered. They're purely philosophy, opinion, or perception.

Tell me, did you read my new thread created yesterday regarding questions you all can't answer? : )
-------
There are a group of people who originated from a town called Boonton, in NJ, USA. They call themselves Dunist's or followers of Dunism. This is their philosophy, but only portrayed, so you can think of the rest or how it really was...
Lets say you don't know them ... You walk up to one of the followers of Dunism, and they will always ask "Who are you" you will reply, and they will ask "What do you want" you will say what you want, they will reply, "go get it" and you will walk away.
another example....you were asked earlier to give a member of Dunism something...(lets say the dunist was your teacher)...
You walk up to your teacher, the teacher will say, "What do you want" you will say "nothing" the teacher will reply, "well go away"...you walk up to the teacher next time, and the teacher says "what do you want" you reply, "I wanted to hand in my homework" the teacher will reply "Get on with it."
Another example...you walk up...the person says "what do you want" and you will reply then the person will say "go away."
That my friend is the birth of ?? Exactly, it was the birth of Sociology, and pyschology. You are thinking that is garbage...especially since you just posted hundreds of other things a you were taught in school...
Well tell me this then...How can a person possibly own a way of thinking, how can a person even comprehend what it means to say one way of thinking is word x not word y. Tell me if one idea is philosophy and another idea is not philosophy...tell me 2 + 2=3, then tell me, if that is not philosophy.
Philosophy is the thought of something, brought upon thinking about something for yourself, using your own un-hindered reason to say 2 +2=3.
Walk up to a philosophy teacher and tell them you will act philosophical for one day. Then when they say OK?? in a confused way, ask them if 2+2=3 if they it does not, they do not know the very BASIC meaning of philosophy, tell them that. Then add that they do not deserve to teach philosophy because they alone have NO IDEA how to be philosophical.
A thing, cannot be taught, only seen and touched, and smelled. An idea...(philosophy) cannot be taught, because philosophy is "thought" of a "thing". With philosophy, you can say the earth is not round and that the sun is a bunch of gold, just waited to be found. So...if your sociology teacher really taught you anything related to philosophy, tell him how what they teach is wrong, and is not philosophy because philosophy is only what people on their own think.
Say hello to one of my days in High School.
Edit:
No that was not random lol?
Edit:
Maybe, to some extent...
What I am implying is that philosophy cannot be taught...you can read one of the above paragraphs I posted.

I did actually. I figured if the point is to post questions that can't be answered, then why answer them?
That's so cute! It wasn't what I was looking for... but you get points anywayThere are a group of people who originated from a town called Boonton, in NJ, USA. They call themselves Dunist's or followers of Dunism. This is their philosophy, but only portrayed, so you can think of the rest or how it really was...

Another example...you walk up...the person says "what do you want" and you will reply then the person will say "go away."Would you happen to know where I can find more info about them? I tried Googling and couldn't find anything.

Those questions are philosophical, and can't be answered seriously without writing chapters and chapters for every 2 or 3 questions. That is how I know no one will ever get the correct answer on these forums.
Not sure how much you like reading, but there is a book called Sophie's World, a novel about The History Of Philosophy. Jostein Gaarder was the writer. It was an international bestseller, and I would say, the best philosophical book to read for anyone that does not know where to start.

As for Dunist's a group of students in this town, become a Dunist, every year because a Social Studies teacher created the Dunist Thought. It was even named after him. These people learn to think differently, compared to everyone else. They don't want bu!!shi,$ if you need to say to give them something, you do it, and just leave, they don't have time to say thankyou or to talk about anything related to conventional teachings, or ideas school's put into a persons mind. I cannot fully understand them, but truth be it, they want nothing to do with long procedures or formal conversations, they are "lazy" or people who want things done or said, right to the point. They think it spares time for things far more important. I might just have to agree with that.
What if everyone went around saying what they thought, and doing as they please, with no one to say "Why!"....example of what occurred a couple of years ago...1 new student went to that school, had Mr.Dun in school, and Mr.Dun as usual said, he loves things right to the point. Well this kid thought farther, he thought, a people should just say what they mean, and get what they want, if they ask for it, no shame no game. That was the thing, this person was not an average Joe, he was a person not afraid of what others though.
This non-average Joe, loved philosophy, and changed the way people thought in that school. He said, if a guys likes a guy, forget all the, "meet them first"..."talk to them" and "go out with them part" ....he thought it should be more of a, "meet the person, and Literally" ask them type of thing. I can still remember when he came to the highschool as a freshman, he was probably one of the most viewed people in the halls...dressing as he pleased, and stopping by EVERY hot chick he saw. Making an introduction, and minutes later holding hands with the girl, and even kissing or making out with her. He does 2 things, he acts like a PUA or he merely asks if they want to hold hands, while taking her hand...or if she wants a kiss while he is already headed for it...there were times he did get rejected and he merely walked right out of the reach of one girl, behind to another...and started all over again.
That guy was a true Dunist, a person who does things right to the point, and then walks away. He did, get what he wanted, and he always walked away. If a chick said "oh he is going to pick up you up" to a chick he was doing it to, he would say just go away, we don't want you here or something like that, he did not waste time, and did not care what others said.
Dunists are not a big group of people, they are not even documented, they are just a group of people that are "created' after having been taught by this one teacher in that community.
