Principles of politics or democracy or society are more important as it is fundamental. Principles are more static — though it is admittable that interpretation can change over years or meaning of word itself can change — than people themselves who seem more fluctuating, more easily influenced by other people. The mass may be fluctuated by the environments they face.
Also it is a place that one can refer to it in their daily life, or as often as they are surrounded by. When their community goes to wrong ways or get lost in to what direction they should be heading to, they can recall by referring to the principles. This is the referability that it has. In other words to express the importance, holding primary principles in one’s mind contributes not to lose their initial purpose. If looking at another person who changed his mind to go to the wrong, one could be entangled in that situation to the wrong. Persons often are attracted to the secondary which has distance from the initial objective by compromising. Even if they initially aimed at doing good to their society, they may fall into their personal profit on their way to reach their goal.
Additionally, the reason why people should refer to fundamental principle is that people who refer to other people don’t get themselves to the sublime in many cases. Especially on the Internet people with shallow understanding are easily to change their feelings by others. Extreme ones after getting people’s attention have others influenced sometimes, causing polarization.
Having primary principles in community or society, it can unite people living in it. Even if they are in the direction of being divided, that shared principles have the effect of uniting them. The principles are going to always remind of what is thought as important in that community and that’s what makes having principle important. Similar to the wisdoms are at least written on record such as books of intellectuals through changing environments, principles work towards society by making use of the history that previous generations built up.
Philosophy was presumably closer to the lives of persons. Philosophy is more abstract and adaptable to many situations than the concrete. Philosophical principles to be referred to is the one should be implemented in society. Not necessarily people should depend on others in terms of making a judgement. Without having the capacity of philosophy, one cannot talk comprehensively. This trait of philosophy makes its importance of incorporating it into the education of children.
To make people realise is to make history of human beings. Philosophers emphasise what’s important for humans, they let people recognise what’s important. It’s a successive chain of reaction from one generation to another. History is woven by human beings. Learning lessons from the past history prevents the same mistake since it is true that a man has limited time in one’s life and need to leave their history to next generation. Wisdom is more vertical in a sense that the wisdom of former generation benefits the next. Taking into consideration mortality of persons, whether the world can get intelligent that much or not can be partly determined by social architecture. Morality loses some intelligence from the world, although their works remain. Many countries have experienced war before, among them, there are countries which can lesson their history for the current and future generations.
In the meantime, one needs to take into consideration that there’s often things not written in words. Even if one tries to describe what one wants to keep in record in detail, the sceptical perspectives arise. It can be described a matter of to what extent the detailed explanations can cover the wide range of it. Eventually, the principles, or that set of rules, require the outside.
