So we can establish Plato's reason as a point of view. The theory of reason is related to the rationalism which is seen "in similarity with the science" 3 and the philosopher puts the equality sign between the rationalism and the science because "we must not forget that the rationalism has been patronized by the appearance of science" 4. But the science cannot exist without a creative thought and the activity of the creative thought begins with "the legendary rationalism of… Plato" 5. Through an incursion in the history of philosophy, Mircea Florian, also arrives to Plato by showing how the victory of the reason is nearby and Plato "gives the formula… against the scepticism" 6. But the problem is that from Plato and Aristotle there is the reading "the philosophy was almost on the whole a continuing abuse of… the creations of the reason" 7 and then it is necessary in establishing the given in general. So M. Florian has the virtue (…) to offer the largest perspective on the philosophy" 8.

Yesterday and today, the human being realized that he cannot "answer these fundamental questions which always have tormented his heart regarding the end and the beginning and hence his sense of existence" (Benedict XVI, Discourse, Pontifical Gregorian University Rome, the 4-th of November 2006). The 21 st century is marked by a return to spirituality because the need for spirituality "reaffirms with power, so far that the observers... reach the conclusion attributed to Andre Malraux: «The 21 st century will be religious or will not be at all»". 1 Nowadays, spirituality means searching for wisdom and there are questions as: who are the humans, where do they come from and where do they go. Under these circumstances, we have to establish some ethical benchmarks. 2 This void makes place for the religious fundamentalism, a laic spirituality based of consumerism described as "a process through which goods are the services created, produced, used and exhausted". 3 But the human must switch from the state of consumer to the state of citizen." 4 Here is about "the necessity of surpassing a selfish ethics." 5
