Puff and it was gone
Good Moooorning Philosophers, yeah I know it is a play on Robin Williams,
you know Good Morning Vietnam
well this is it. The End. I hope that you were all listening to the THE
PRESIDENT last night. Unless we bale out the bankers, we are all doomed.
So, when we were faced with the lifeboat problem between Hardin and
Singer, which way did you go. Do we let them sink, or do we save them.
Now, remember, you will be impoverished to actually rescue rich people,
not poor starving ones.
Even, the Archbishops are now referring back to Marx, who actually quoted
Shakespeare on p.204 of the Political Thought when he quoted one of the
properties of money:-
'it is the universal whore, the universal pimp of men and peoples'.
This will disappear no doubt of that because the OU take it down tonight.
But it has been fun, I just wonder how some people will use what they have
learned about philosophy on this course. Will it make a difference to how
you live your lives, will you join the revolution! I was going to say
watch this space, only you won't be able to, because it goes. Live long and prosper.
So, with a final flourish, I will end with a quote from an anti-war film.
Goodbyeee, goodbyeee, there's a silver lining in the skyeee, Goodbyeeee.
I wonder if the great poet Ms Killen will give us the benefit of one of her efforts.
'puff' and it was gone.
