Why do modern people need philosophy more?

The release of freedom, will give every modern people a problem-self-doubt.


不管你多大程度支持或反对自由,实际上现代人比古人拥有更大的人身自由、言论自由和各种生活选择的自由。自由的释放,就会给每个现代人带来一个问题——自我怀疑。东南西北上下左右……到底如何选择才是对的呢?

The self-doubt that comes with freedom is a key word in Fromm's "Escape from Freedom", and it is also a keyword for modern people of all colors.

How serious is modern self-doubt? Self-doubt can reach the level of nausea, which is an answer given to us by Sartre's "Disgusting".The self-doubt that comes with freedom can make people restless until they doubt the meaning of life.Sartre felt that once the meaning of life is removed, people will feel disgusted and disgusted with the world.


自我怀疑要怎么办呢?人的各种自我怀疑都会指向一个方向——信念,信念就是自我怀疑的出路。从自我怀疑到信念的确立,是一个探究的过程,这个探究过程就是哲学思考。

古人从自我怀疑到建立信念,这个探究过程更多依赖宗教,宗教也是哲学的一种。现代人更多无神论者,他们需要用替代宗教的方案来一边摆脱自我怀疑、一边建立信念,即哲学之路。

Modern people are freer, more self-doubting and less religious than the ancients, so they need philosophy more.
