Pls Help Which philosophy do you think is better: Epicureanism or Stoicism? Write an argument for one of the philosophies, and challenge the ideas of the opposing side.

Epicureanism Sounds fun in that you indulge your self but not to the point of hedonism. Epicureanism taught that avoiding pain and bad things brought happiness and well it was a way to live it is not as good as honest work and the experience you gain from facing pain.

Stoicism taught that strong emotions led to mistakes and that they should be avoided . It also taught that someone who was sage would be morally right. It also taught that virtue was sufficent for happiness and I agree. If you indulge too much and work too little then you will become lazy emotional and useless.

the first forms of writing came from them in the form of pictographs around 3100 bc.
