Today is World Philosophy Day 2024

World Philosophy Day is an international day to be celebrated every 3rd Thursday of November.  It was first celebrated on November 21, 2002.  Celebrating World Philosophy Day each year underlines the enduring value of philosophy for the development of human thought, for each culture and for each individual.  Critical questioning enables us to give meaning to life and action.  Philosophy is a discipline that encourages critical and independent thought and is capable of working towards a better understanding of the world and promoting tolerance and peace.

Okay, so you probably aren't surprised that my double major for my bachelor's degree included philosophy, right?
