The site is long on philosophical quotes by period
personalities but totally lacking in quotes by King Solomon as written in the
book of Ecclesiastes... Solomon was credited as being the most knowledgeable man
that ever lived. Well... err.. until he took on some 700 wives
which had to be just dumb... Geoff would likely write them off as an erotic
distraction. Anyway, Solomon did state precepts that have withstood the test of
time.
Solomon wrote : He has made everything beautiful
in its time. He has also set eternity in the hearts of men; yet they cannot
fathom what God has done from beginning to end. ecc.3:11
and again he wrote: For much wisdom comes much sorrow;
the more knowledge, the more grief. ecc.1:18
and again he wrote: Of making books there is no
end, and much study wearies the body.ecc.12:12
Leibniz et.al. devote much time explaining why the
King's robe can be seen only by the intellectuals of the
world.
I read recently that more than 50% of the college majors
in France are now in philosophy, surely after 150 years they would fathom Marx
and Engels were just kidding in the coffee shop and never to be taken
serious.
