From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems concerning matters such as existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind, and language. It is distinguished from other ways of addressing fundamental questions (such as mysticism, myth, or the arts) by its critical, generally systematic approach and its reliance on rational argument.

What philosophy puts discovery of the universe and science as the meaning of life? Asked by Lydia - Sun Apr 13 16:24:33 2008 - - 3 Answers - 0 Comments A. Let me have a go at this. To understand science, you would have to go for the specific science itself. To understand the Universe, you would have to go for Astronomy or Cosmology, may be Astrophysics, but if you say the fullness of human experience then all philosophies attempt that, perhaps in different ways. Yes I am assuming the sciences are a form of philosophy with experimental results as criteria for verisimilitude. As to the meaning of life, Art exposes it to you, Religion gives you answers (except Zen Buddhism that does not say that exists), but Science describes fact not meaning. Hope you are confused.

First and foremost, I am a philosopher and I want to philosophize for the remainder of my life, but I feel that the military can be very useful in nurturing discipline of mind and body, developing leadership qualities, and gaining world experience. What can I do that will fit with my interest in philosophy? I'm not saying that the military can help me with philosophy. I'm asking where in the military will my abstract/analytic thinking be useful? Asked by Archshadow3 - Sat Jan 2 13:11:14 2010 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. Kill, then morally justify it to yourself. Answered by AndrewM - Sat Jan 2 13:19:22 2010 What makes the process of writing philosophy papers different than that of other disciplines?
Q. Everyone says that writing about philosophy is a 'different sort of writing', but I'm not entirely sure what it meant by that. Of course, you're writing about philosophical texts and issues, but how is the actual process of writing any different than any other sort of academic writing? Asked by kai_maguire - Sun Dec 7 17:50:53 2008 - - 2 Answers - 0 Comments A. It is a different sort of writing because, more so than any other branch of the humanities, it is based around (in fact, entirely grounded upon) logic and maths. You cannot (or at least should not) persaude your reader with rhetoric. You must be infinitely careful, consistent and detailed in your definitions. Almost every statement should be reducable to a logical equation. In essence, a philosophy paper is really just an elaborate mathematical equation, with words substituted for numbers. In short, very different to any other discipline. Answered by Tom J - Sun Dec 7 19:09:01 2008 From Yahoo Answer Search: "philosophy" Quotes regarding Philosophy and philosophers: Sourced
