I feel as though a philosopher is someone who is abstractly smart, and with confidence, states his openminded opinion linguisticly. sure, a degree helps, but to what degree does a degree benefit the individual?? i know tons and tons of people who are very bright but who simply lack the resources to go to school, or who are smarter than the system and can figure things out for themselves. ill take this example. Good Will Hunting..i know its a movie, however, in many ways this movie was true. i totally believe that there are people like that, who can read a book and understand it perfectly without the help of a teacher. personally, i dont care what school gives you their piece of paper with a wood frame around it, thats hung on your wall. if your able to have intellectual conversations and think subjectivly, then you've done it for me.

Note: sorry for the spelling errors.....my hands are cold.
