An excuse

My blog has paused because two years ago I've got a daughter!!

I have spent and am going to spend most of my time with her, but a lot of things have come to my mouth.

I'm going to express them to the world though very few want to read them.

Philosophy

"Religio," the Latin match for "religion," is supposed to mean the "prudence" or awe of the supernatural, called God or Allah, that gives order to the natural world. You know, the Arabic match for religion, "taqwa," has the same meaning. In a Chinese character, 「信仰」(sinko), a correspondent for "religion," has a different meaning. It refers to the seriousness in stating something is true. But it's hard to say something is true because human beings are parts of the whole of the universe; each of them is just a part, so it cannot see the whole so that it has trouble finding what it should do. In short, human beings are required to realize their ignorance. I would say "sinko" is the same in meaning as "religion" and "taqwa."

Religions are cultural matters, this awareness gives rise to Philosophy born in Greece in which cultural matters will be excluded as can be. Talk among cultural areas has to be based on such a philosophy. Do you think now the world has philosophical attitudes?
