Truly wonderful. Getting philosophy into schools is a brilliant idea.

[@divalivingston1664]

Enjoyable interaction watching the students and hearing them use such thinking and questioning skills at that younger age. A definite benefit of philosophy in schools.

As a child, I don't remember any class involving itself in philosophical inquiry & discussions, yet I have always "leaned" in philosophical directions. Thus, I am truly delighted to have experienced this TEDx talk. Thank you, Peter!

Glad you liked it. Great to hear stories like this that imply something was missing without philosophy. Thanks.

Reflect, Reason, Revaluation. I like that, it's snappy.

[@peterworley9656]

It's actually 're-evaluative' that I say in the talk but - if I had more time - I would include 'revaluative' as well. Also 'reflexive' as well as 'reflective'. So the 3 Rs of philosophy are: 1) reflective/reflexive, 2) rational and 3) re-evaluative/revaluative. (Though this stretches the notion of 'three') expressed in this way it captures the all-important second-order/meta-thinking aspect that is at the heart of philosophical practice and aims (and often left out).

We get philosophy to children at school then the misanthropic religions of hate will be vanished.
