The general philosophy of ethics shows the human mind to be extremely susceptible to social pressure, people only call a door a door because their parents and peers call it so, now, their parents themselves were taught these specifics, that in the long run have a defining meaning that only applies too their community, which in the big picture defines the ethics that they live by.

See an unchangeable pattern emerging?

If you do, you've been misguided, what if, a “door” wasn't a door
( -1- a door in the sense of a pile o' wood on hinges, you know, that type)
What if the WORD “door” meant something different than it's common meaning -1-

Would the social standards/ethics people have lived by fall apart, because everyone starts to think in the sense that a word is just a word, but it's real meaning is overshadowed by it?

If understood knowledge socially defined the base of many (if not most) psychological, social, ethical basis completely.

And people saw the same as their peers, in a general sense of knowledge, where nothing's “wrong” or “right” because they know there's no difference between them from different points of view.
Would things change?

I doubt it, ever heard of the flat earth “theory”?

Now put that in YOUR sense of views, that define YOUR understanding of knowledge.

Look at WORDS, do they MEAN the same in your understanding too the dictionary's definition?

Well?? DO THEY!?


Just…
Look,
See,
Find the differences,
And change them back to the “genus” meanings,
What they really mean!

No more differentiation because of lack of knowledge and/or lack of understanding of that knowledge,
No more lies, hate, greed naiveness and ignorance because of false understandings,
Built off lack of knowledge!

If you know the answer, and you have substantial, DIRECT proof of it's realism, who can deny it?

Only the people that don't know the base, the base of the structure is unknown to most, the only difference is with knowledge,

It is if not the biggest proving base of all!

Hi, coogiez!

Do you mean that this is something that you did a long time ago as a paper
For a class in school? If so, what grade were you in, please? Some of what you have written is very philosophical.

I do agree with you that most of the time, people
Will accept something to be true merely because of what people have said
Without looking for the truth themselves. As a teacher of many years, I have encountered beliefs, such as like what you have described, many times.

People accept words, as reality itself rather than face up to their fear, of death.

I think I was 3/4's through year ten,

It wasn't really a paper as such,
I just wrote it too use up the time left during school.

You are a thinker and a wonderer, coogiez! I wish that more people were that way without blanketedly taking things as is for what other people might think them to be! I think that I just invented a word with blanketedly! But, I think that you get my "drift." But, in other instances, it might depend on the observation and definition of the word based upon the understanding of the person perceiving what it means.

All a matter of definition depending on the understanding and experience of the person perceiving what is meant by that which has been written...
