第一期哲学俱乐部

记者:陈家丽

第一期哲学俱乐部于11319:0021:30在木铎楼504举行。Shawn Warren博士作为主持人出席了本次论坛。

首先,Warren博士提出了“科技将来是否能取代我们的工作”的问题。他向学生们展示了手机的翻译功能。有些同学说,软件翻译并不能像人工翻译一样灵活,因为软件没有情绪和表情,很难传达人们的真实感受。但是翻译软件也能方便交流。“看来目前翻译家们还不用担心自己找不到工作呢。”Warren博士如是说。

接下来是中药与西药之间的较量。Warren博士说,他认为中药的研究并不够系统和科学,也没有很多突破性的成果。同学们纷纷发言,有的举证获诺贝尔奖的屠呦呦研究的青蒿素,就是基于中药的基础。有的则表示中药的研究历史悠久,并且不像西药一样有很多的副作用。最大的区别是,中药治本不治标。几经辩论,Warren博士不得不向中国学生屈服。

最后,他们谈论了西方哲学与中国哲学的不同。西方更多是强调人文,美德,中国则是自我约束和国家管理,例如老子的无为而治。

哲学是最古老的学科。在Warren博士看来,哲学论坛的交流更像是辩论。他们一起讨论那些对人类的生活有重大影响的问题。与此同时,大家也提升了理解、锻炼了交流和思考能力。敬请期待下一次的哲学论坛。

The First Meeting of Philosophy Club

By Chen Jiali

The first meeting of Philosophy Club was held on November 3rd from 19:00 to 21:30 in Room 504 of Muduo Building. Dr. Shawn Warren, as the host, attended the meeting.

Firstly, Dr. Warren asked whether technology could replace our work in the future. He showed us the translation app in his phone. Some students said the app was not as flexible as human translation, because no emotions nor senses were involved and its difficult to express peoples  real feelings. But such apps were also convenient for some people, serving as an aid in communication. It seems that translators dont have to worry about finding a job at present. Dr. Warren said.

Then was a debate between Chinese and Western medicine. Dr. Warren thought the research of Chinese medicine was not systematical nor scientific, and it lacked breakthrough results. The students spoke in retort,and some of them cited the Nobel prize-winner Youyou Tu's artemisinin, which is based on traditional Chinese medicine. Some suggested that unlike western medicine which has many side effects, there is a long history for the study of traditional Chinese medicine. After several debates, Dr. Warren had to give in to the students.

Finally, they talked about the differences between western and Chinese philosophy.  In the west, the emphasis is on humanity and virtue, while in China, self-restraint and state management, such as Lao-Tzu's Govern by doing nothing that goes against nature.

Philosophy is the oldest subject. For Dr. Warren, communication pattern within the Philosophy Club is more like a debate. They discussed the problems that had a major impact on our life, which improved the understanding and trained the skills of communication and thinking. Lets look forward to the next meeting.
