Selected Philosophical Implications to Consider the Topic of a Virtual World as a Simulacrum of Anthropocentrism

Abstracts

EN

This paper provides an overview of selected philosophical implications connected with the topic of a virtual world as a simulacrum of anthropocentrism. The paper discusses also the impact of the implications on the considerations of the dilemma to what extent the users of a virtual world remain obedient to their moral values and how the virtual world influences being a human in the real world. The concept of a virtual world was initiated by a human because the human being`s intentions are to fulfill his own needs, to cross his individual barriers and, while attempting to his own development, to reach for what is for him instinctively attainable. Human aspirations of creating a virtual world, a look-alike world, emerge finalized but the only residuary conundrum is to assuage one`s desires for finding the good and for defending one`s moral values. A human being is in the centre of existence and is the issue of valence inasmuch as he is ‘the master’ of the world, and, according to the paradigm of anthropocentrism, he is able to achieve what he yearns for. Therefore, it is advisable to contemplate the issue whether a human being desired the virtual world to arise or whether he just wanted to desire the world in his omnipotence. Another alternative for the discussion is to ponder over a human craving for creating a new, better version of a real world and for his subconscious attempts at its annihilation. Because human cognitive faculties – his thoughts and needs are biologically conditioned, the article analyses also a phantasm of a human domination over the real world through the virtual world and a human being`s negation of moral values as well as his control of the limitations of the real world.
