Philosophy is fun... (go zombies!)

[Aetos]

I was reading the results of a survey conducted using philosophy PHDs/philosophy graduate students and the last question asked...

"Zombies: inconceivable, conceivable but not metaphysically possible, or metaphysically possible?

Accept or lean toward: conceivable but not metaphysically possible 331 / 931 (35.5%)
Other 234 / 931 (25.1%)
Accept or lean toward: metaphysically possible 217 / 931 (23.3%)
Accept or lean toward: inconceivable 149 / 931 (16%)"

I thought this was funny coming from a "serious" philosophy based website..

In case anybody is interested in philosophy at all, philpapers.org is a pretty awesome website

People are actually interested in Philosophy?

I always just figured people took those classes either because they were forced to, or because they want to fuck the artsy/smart bitch with black-rim glasses.

I believe a zombie-esque scenario is completely possible. It's the main basis of my interest in survivalism.

Considering some of the shit people believe in, I don't consider it to be too far-fetched.

Yes

or because they want to fuck the artsy/smart bitch with black-rim glasses.

I am interested in this as well, but there are easier ways to do that.
