Plato's Heaven

Welcome to Plato's Heaven!

Have you ever wondered whether morals really exist? Have you ever wondered whether you were the only person with a mind, and that everyone else only seemed to think? Have you ever wondered whether there was a God? If you have, you have been thinking philosophically, and have come to the right place to find out more.

Many people only have a vague idea about what philosophy is about. To put it short, it's a pursuit of truth. One lecturer that I had once said that philosophers are scientists without coat labs. We use reason to discover the possibilities and nature of the world we live in.

In philosophy, plato's heaven is a world of abstract objects. Every property is said to exist in this place. The colour "red", for example, is a property of apples, so it exists up there. This site was named after plato's heaven because it is concerned with beautiful and abstract ideas.



More specifically, Plato's Heaven is a battlefield for philosophical discussion and debate. In each post a philosophical issue or argument is raised, and at the end the reader is invited to leave his or her opinion on the matter. The posts have been written in a way that is comprehensible to those new to the field. Nevertheless, if you do find something that is difficult to understand, I'd be happy to answer any questions.
