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. Philosophy is distinguished from other ways of addressing these questions (such as mysticism or mythology) by its critical, generally systematic approach and its reliance on reasoned argument. Philosophy comes from the Greek φιλοσοφία [philosophia], which literally translates to "love of wisdom". A synonym of philosophy is the Greek φιλαλήθεια [philalethia], which translates as "love of truth." From Wikipedia under the

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.

Answered by planningahead - Mon Jan 14 02:35:13 2008 How do I get over the difficulty of expressing my philosophy?
Q. Ok so, I believe I do very well in expressing my theories and critique of philosophy on paper, since I have time to organize my thoughts and make them more precise, but, I have trouble in expressing my theory and critique of philosophy verbally. To put it simply, I draw a bit of a blank on how I want to say something or what I want to say. My question is: How can I learn to express more of my philosophies verbally? I got a puzzle for you... So if I were to ask you what the definition of Justice was... what do you think would take longer to explain what Justice is (in all totality)? A series of examples or a definition? Do you know how many examples could fit under the application of a definition. Examples only express so much, so I… [cont.] Asked by woo_hoo_ca - Sat Sep 29 11:19:52 2007 - - 5 Answers - 0 Comments A. Firs at all, I take myself as 'a philosopher' (so-so) but I'm an anti-western philosophical person; however I don't claim that the last is a trash, because I got some meanings about that philosophy (I'm a philosophy graduate hehehe). I think that the purpose of the western philosophy is to make you a skeptic one by force like the preachers at the medieval time and nowadays by audience. For instance, Descartes in his Discourse on the Method attempts to arrive at a fundamental set of principles that one can know as true without any doubt. To achieve this, he employs a method called methodological skepticism: he rejects any idea that can be doubted, and then reestablishes them in order to acquire a firm foundation for 'genuine' knowledge.
