    Haha, this is indeed one of the points where humanism has been criticized a lot.

    However, I believe that as a representative school of humanistic tendencies, it cannot be compared with a school of natural tendencies such as cognitive psychology in terms of empirical research.

    It's as if the study of "faith" and the study of "laws of physical motion" are not the same thing as being purely objective.

    Chinese have always been educated in materialism, while the West is idealistic (they believe in the existence of God). But it's hard to say who's right and who's wrong, and I think that the question of faith itself depends on what you believe.

    After studying psychology for so many years, I feel that I am becoming more and more idealistic. Of course, it also maintains a materialistic side. It's as if I now feel that the unification of the two orientations of psychology is no longer necessary.

    Some things need evidence, and some can only be explained by idealism.

    Idealism is a fundamental problem in philosophy. It refers to the negation of the primacy of the world as the spirit and the primacy of matter. Humanism is not a problem at the same level.

    Humanism does not necessarily deny materialism, but refers to emphasizing the role of human nature and advocating respect for human individuality and subjectivity in people's practical activities. It is not in the same vein as the idealist concept. I think it should still conform to the materialist dialectic.

    There is no need to stick to materialism and idealism, it is very one-sided.

    Idealism. Particular attention is paid to initiative.

    In this respect, it is long in metaphysical materialism.

    But it "developed in the abstract" subjective agency (Marx.

    For example, "all wishes come true", in its positive sense, it emphasizes the use of people's subjective initiative, and it is not wrong. "If you want a few things, you will stand, and if you don't want them, you will waste them", "If you have a will, you can do it". However, in its negative sense, thought certainly has the role of leading people to transform the world to achieve their goals, but the role of thought is not unlimited, it is not how far the thought goes, how far the action can go, and still less can the spiritual factor be regarded as the origin of the world (idealism is to take the spiritual factor as the original principle of the world).

    If there is no solid foundation, who can guarantee that the high-rise buildings will not collapse? It is not enough to have ideas, but also to have a pragmatic spirit. First, the "things" that can be managed by "Xinxiang" are man-made things, or things that can be intervened by man-made people, and if they are force majeure natural forces, "Xinxiang" can at most minimize the loss.

    For example, in the case of ** and tsunamis, people can only reduce their losses through forecasting, disaster relief support and other measures, and it is impossible to completely erase natural disasters through "thinking". Second, "thinking" is a necessary condition for "making things happen".

    And not sufficient conditions.

    In other words, without thought, it is difficult for things to succeed (sometimes there will be "unintentional willow shady"), but it is not necessary to succeed if there is thought. Third, "thinking" must strive to understand and grasp the law of the development of things, and only by proceeding from reality and fully reflecting the objective law and the inherent law of thinking can we have a correct understanding, and only a correct understanding can lead to correct action, can we guide action that conforms to the objective law, and can we achieve the goal that people expect. Fourth, the exertion of subjective initiative depends on certain material conditions.

    It is difficult for a clever woman to cook without rice", people's understanding of the objective world is closely related to the level of development of material and technical conditions, and the transformation of the world requires a certain material means, and without realistic raw materials, no matter how clever the thinking is, nothing can be created. Fifth, ideas must be put into practice in order to achieve the goal of transforming the world. Human consciousness is a spiritual force, and in order to change the world with the power of reality, we cannot just go around in circles in the mind itself.

    What cannot be achieved by thought, and in order to realize thought, it must be turned into action.

    Idealism is actually very simple, that is, ideology is the first nature, material is second, that is to say, everything we have is determined by thought, as long as there is consciousness in this world, there is matter, idealism believes that there are ghosts and gods in this world, there is God, it was invented by German Hegel, as for whether idealism is good or bad, it does not come this way, the basic system of philosophy is not determined by "good and bad", it is dialectical, an idealism, a materialism, and there are only these two in the world at present.

    Idealism. Of course it's not good. He is not in touch with reality. Be. It's not okay to look at things objectively without looking at them objectively.

    Idealism is one of the two basic schools of philosophy, and it is a philosophical system of thought that is opposed to materialism. The basic meaning of idealism is that in the philosophical ontology of the relationship between thinking and existence, spirit and matter, spirit (consciousness) is the first nature of the world, and matter is the second nature of the world.

    There are two basic manifestations of idealism: objective idealism and subjective idealism.

    Objective idealism holds that there exists an objective spirit independently of the real world, which is the origin of the world, and from which everything in the world is produced (derived). Its famous representatives include Zhu Xi of China, Plato of ancient Greece and Hegel of Germany.

    Subjective idealism takes people's subjective spirit (consciousness, concepts, etc.) as the starting point for understanding the world, and what exists in the subjective spirit is the cognitive world, which is the product of the subjective spirit, not the real objective world. The main representatives include China's Lu Jiuyuan and Wang Shouren, and Germany's Fichte. [

    Idealism is an idea or a school of thought, and there is no such thing as good or bad in itself.

    Idealism emphasizes that everything in the world exists because of my thoughts, and that my thoughts and concepts determine everything, which is an inward-looking school of thought. Hope.

    The biggest problem is that when some people talk about idealism, they will talk about superstition and religious fraud, which is very funny, and they all pretend to be materialistic, but in fact they don't figure it out.

    In the final analysis, it is the spiritual cleanliness that will talk about those who have and don't.

    Idealism is one of the two major schools of thought in philosophy, which believes that the material world is the product of consciousness and spirit, and that consciousness and spirit are the first nature and matter is the second nature. Subjective idealism is called subjective idealism that regards the objective world as the embodiment or product of subjective consciousness, and objective idealism is called objective idealism that regards the objective world as the embodiment or product of the objective spirit.

    Idealism and materialism are the two opposing schools of thought in philosophy. With the progress of social science and technology, idealism has been replaced by materialism.

    I think that the words you have written are about the origin of self-consciousness and the reality of the objective world.

    1.I can think, I can feel, so I can feel that I exist, so I exist. This is similar to what Descartes said, "I think, therefore I am."

    2.But everything else except me (or my thoughts), I can feel them, but they are objects, and I can't feel objects as I feel myself, so I feel that they may not be real, they may not exist. The reason why the world exists in my consciousness may be because my consciousness acts on the world, not because the world itself exists.

    This notion is similar to Berkeley's "to be is to be perceived."

    3.We can never know if anything other than self-consciousness really exists, or if it is as certain as self-consciousness. This is similar to Hume's agnosticism.

    From my personal experience, these texts are a sign of starting to think about philosophical issues, and perhaps you should learn more about some Western philosophical questions and ideas to enlighten your own mind.

    As for whether it is idealism ... In the Chinese Marxist-Leninist textbooks, Berkeley belongs to idealism, Descartes belongs to dualism, Hume belongs to agnosticism... But in Western philosophy, true idealism refers more to the German classical philosophy from Kant to Hegel, and your thinking has little to do with the German classical philosophy, but rather reveals some British empiricist tendencies.

    It's not so much idealism as you have a philosophical gift.

    The wonder of this world is that, from the perspective of common sense, the world itself and others are objective realities and individuals external to themselves, and without the cultivation of your individual by human society, your thoughts cannot be generated. But once your self-consciousness is formed, it becomes your own personal world, and the external world seems to depend on your consciousness at this time. In Marx's words, "you don't have to imagine something realistic, you can realistically imagine something".

    It's as if everything in reality has become something in your mind.

    In a sense, philosophers are "idealistic" because their excessive self-consciousness leads them to think about what ordinary people think is absurd, and to turn the whole relationship between thinking and existence upside down. Let's take an example. You look at the night sky and see a lot of stars, but when you look at one of them, you see that it's out of sight.

    The common man is the one who looks at the night sky, and the philosopher is the one who looks at a star and tries to think that it doesn't exist.

    Judging by the fact that you still use the word "idealism", it is estimated that your understanding still retains the philosophical knowledge learned under the Chinese ideological education. Why not try reading a history of Western philosophy? (Deng Xiaomang or Zhang Zhiwei's "History of Western Philosophy" is recommended) The great philosophers in Western history have thought about it and given more wonderful explanations than the other.

    For example, there was a philosopher named Anselm in history who proposed a proof of God's existence, as follows:1Each of us can conceive of the greatest thing that exists in our minds.

    2.What was conceived as the greatest is certainly present in reality. For if what is conceived as the greatest exists only in the mind, then that thing is not conceived as the greatest (how can something that exists only in the brain and not in reality be the greatest?).

    This contradicts premise 1. 3.

    So the greatest thing exists in reality. Isn't this proof interesting? Of course, there are also philosophers who give brilliant rebuttals.

    If you look at what these philosophers in history thought, there must be ideas in them that suit your taste. I guess if you're asking here, no one will give you a specific answer that will satisfy you.

    Marx said: Without man, nature is nothing. If you believe in materialism, then your ideas are materialistic.

    Teacher Qin Yue wrote in "New Dialectics of Nature": Life is produced by absorbing the abilities of nature. When it dies, the energy returns to nature.

    This is the essence of consciousness.
