i am soooo sick of the ten most blabla of all the time lists. euwww... it seems that people will almost never bother to read or learn about things unless someone tells them it is one of the most of something. apart from that it is seriously disappointing to see things like "declaration of independence" in a list that claims to make a "list" of influential philosophical traditions. the declaration of independence is not a philosophy, maybe what you tried to say was liberalism, and you were afraid that americans would confuse the liberal tradition with democrats??? the bible and freud as philosophy...!!! oh, come on now...

From the page: "3) Thomas Hobbes- Necessity of a government Hobbes was the first enemy of anarchy. He argued that human nature was inherently destructive and that life in an anarchy state (which he called the "State of Nature") would be "solitary, poor, nasty, brutish, and short." Instead, he believed that a government was necessary -- yet its only function was to ensure that peace and natural rights be preserved for all citizens. So long as you don't do something to violate someone else's natural rights, you should be free to do whatever you want. The crux of his philosophy comes in the form of a negation of the Bible's famous Golden Rule- "Do not that to another, which thou wouldst not have done to thyself." Hobbes' philosophical impact on later European thinkers can never be understated." I sure wish we could move more towards this type of system...
