Its something I have to try and remember. Aristotle said that philosophy begins in wonder, but it might be fair to say that it progresses from there into dense thickets of terminology and petty technical points.
There are lots of criticisms of academic philosophy. And sometimes I feel pretty disillusioned about it all.
The philosophy for children stuff is interesting...
And the stuff that is pitched at people with no formal training.
If you can't say it simply...I think its important not to forget that.
But sometimes... I do.
