I studied a bit of philosophy in high school, but it didn't really interest me at that time. But getting older, I realize that philosophical questions are pervasive. A lot of our contemporary debates and our disagreements are rooted in philosophical questions. Unfortunately, I find philosophy to be very arid and I'm sure it doesn't have to be that way. For one thing, a lot of philosophy books discuss past philosophers ideas. Of course, some of their thoughts are still valid, but they're very obfuscated and hard to follow for a modern reader. It's like if we were asking math students to read Euclide to learn about geometry.
