It was in his shoul- der, neck, arm and even his right hip and leg. At fi rst pain pills helped, but over a period of weeks and months, the pain grew worse. The pills upset his stomach, and he became more ill and depressed. I saw the adverse effects of his illness on my mom and our family. Doctor after doc- tor just gave him the same advice – take more pills. He got to a point that he could only sleep for 15 minutes at a time. A friend suggested he see Dr. Pangle, a Doctor of Chiropractic. At the time, Dad did not know what a chiropractor was, but he was desperate. Dr. Pangle conducted a spinal examination and x-rays to fi nd the cause of the condition, not just a treat- ment of pain. He located a small misalignment (subluxation) in Dad’s neck. The irritated nerves coming from that area were the source of the problem. Dad had a series of adjustments over several months. Miraculously, in less than 90 days, after being sick for over a year, Dad not only received relief but function back in his right side. It was truly amazing for Dad, but it was fantastic to me to see such a wonderful change in my family. I learned that illness affects the entire family unit, and I never forgot that experience. Later I experienced fi rst hand the wonderful benefi ts of chiropractic after I suffered many sports injuries as a former athlete. Chiropractic added years to my life and life to my years!

Does a tree make a sound when it falls in the forest if nobody is around to hear it? You may think the answer is a no-brainer. But, actually, it has been debated among philosophers since ancient times. Something to What’s a philosopher? Imagine a job where all you do is think — and then think some more. Philosophers are people who try to answer questions about human life and thought. Philosophy is not a subject like math or spelling. You can’t look for the right answers in the back of the textbook. Different philoso- phers can look at one question and come up with different ways of dealing with it. Kids make great philosophers because they are curious; they wonder and they ask a lot of questions. think David A. White, a philosophy teacher, wrote about a book called “Philosophy for Kids,’’and here By Valerie Strauss The Washington Post are some of the questions he poses. Look at how famous philosophers answer — and feel free to disagree!

But Irish philosopher George Berkeley, who lived from this issue. Immanuel Kant, a German philosopher who lived from 1685 to 1753, has another response: You can’t know for sure! It all has to do with the notion of certitude. That means 1724 to 1804, would disagree. To Kant,it was never OK to lie. Berkeley was a bishop in the Anglican Church. He being absolutely certain something is true.

He concluded that if he was doubting his be OK? exist even if it is not perceived by anyone? existence, then he must exist, or he couldn’t be doubting.
