Post here your everyday casual comments and frustrations on dealing with a non-Epicurean world. Here you can "blow off steam" about the craziness of religious attitudes (how "everything" is god's will," no matter how ridiculous; how people who die are happy in heaven - so why don't we all commit suicide?) or other common viewpoints (procrastination, "keeping up with the Jones's," etc) that conflict with Epicurean views. But please - remember the "Not Neo-Epicurean" rules, and don't veer off into "politics."

No! Epicurus was not uneducated: the real philistines are those who ask us to go on studying till old age the subjects that we ought to be ashamed not to have learned as children.
