>earth will be even less hospitable to our children than it is for us. “
>The word “hospitality” cued me into thinking how much philosophy
>depends on the world (earth as lived in) inducing just the right
>degree and the right sort of homelessness. A world significantly more
>tampered with than it is now would make it impossible to see and think the
>world as hospitable/inhospitable in a way that is proper to it–leaving no
>where from which philosophy can draw its proper perspective for
>thinking. What I mean to point to here is a world inhospitable to
>Dasein, wherein Dasein cannot find itself. Homelessness of a
