😠 😮‍💨 😂 😆

Hey finti, you havn't once come up with your own original philosophical idea, are you too scared people will criticise you? What are you doing in a philosophy forum when you merely criticise other people's opinions, give us your own one to prove yourself.
dont need an original philosophical idea. In here I enjoy reading post by people who think way to highly of their own intellect. But if you wanna play philosopichal

- Arrogance is a retraction of the truth

That makes no sense.

That makes no sense.
guess it is real philosophy then

No. It's not a philosophical statement.

I think the fact that you said "the truth" is what makes it vague (in my opinion).. what is the truth in this case? It could be anything from the readers point of view

I agree.

most things spans out from the readers point of view.

Another take at it is arrogance is the retraction from how things are

No. It's not a philosophical statement.
oh please define philosophical statement

A philosophical statement is distinct from everyday statements in one way: the statement evidences the self-reflectional characteristic of self-consciousness. In other words, it is a statement which stems from the very essence of intelligence endeavoring to contemplate itself. Such statements represent the highest form of consciousness.

or to really simplify it, a load of hogwash

LOL 😆

You're wrong. Why? Because I know I'm right. By your own logic, there's nothing you will ever say that will prove me wrong.
