Definition of Philosophy...
 
Hello folks, I'm new here.

After reading the threads in this sub-forum, I think that some of the folks here, as brilliant and wise as they obviously are, could use some help in understanding philosophy.

How would you define philosophy?

I hope my niece Sophie marries someone named Philo.

I hope someone names a kid Philo.

The dead father of science?

The deft dodger of science?

Depends on what the course number is.

If it's PHL 215, Inductive Logic, I've got your definition: BITCH.

Thinking carefully about difficult questions.

I'll bill you later.

Hey, wait a minute, I thought Philosophy is the talk on a cereal box. I'm not aware of too many things: I know what I know, if you know what I mean. :eyebrow:

Shawnee123 03-05-2010 07:22 AM

Do do ya?

Start at the end and come back to the beginning. It will all be much clearer that way.

Narcissistic navel-gazing?

You've been studying Wheatgenstein, then?

Oh FFS! Any phil. major knows that the study was named after Phil O'Sophy, a leprechaun known for his ability to post unanswerable questions on The Cellar whilst drinking green beer and eating corned beef and cabbage. Very few dwellars truly understood his posts, but he was so cool they all pretended to and attempted to reply without giving away their lack of comprehension. Eventually, that skill was named.....
