This text examines the profound influence of Greek conceptual thought on European culture and our fundamental modes of reasoning. The author argues that this influence is not the result of conscious philosophical study but rather spreads through a form of "contagion" or unconscious imitation. This reality creates a significant methodological paradox when attempting to introduce students to the discipline of philosophy. While a shared foundation exists, our existing "pseudo-knowledge" acts as a barrier because individuals believe they already understand how to think, having internalized these patterns alongside language acquisition. Therefore, a genuine introduction to philosophy in the European context cannot proceed in the traditional sense. Instead, the process must begin with radical criticism and the problematization of all established assumptions. The author concludes that every European has already been introduced to philosophy, albeit incorrectly. Consequently, philosophical propedeutics should aim to introduce a specific way of philosophizing by deconstructing common mental frameworks and overcoming the illusion of innate philosophical competence.
