god damn


philosophy is NOT the essence of logic, philosophy tries to utilize logic (very poorly) but it does not define logic.


also, i'll agree that sociology, psychology and political science are philosophy, i'll also say that they aren't real science as none of those fields follow the scientific method.


science has a process that must be followed, philosophy is free form and devoid of any real process or standards. if philosophy were the essence of science then science wouldn't exist, it might as well be religion where you just make crap up and throw it at a wall and everyone believes it.


also, what is to stop you from finding me and murdering me? absolutely nothing, especially not philosophy. internet murders happen. and to say philosophy is some sort of mythical shield is naive. philosophy and ethics don't prevent anything, and ethics is widely different from person to person. ethics doesn't mean anything, it's just a set of arbitrary rules that people assume are right. at one point in time canabilism was deemed ethical, in some tribes it's still ethical. in some parts of the world it's ethical to oppress entire castes of people, in others it's ethical to slowly turn the nation into sheeple using misinformation. i'd hardly say philosophical discussion is driving those ethics, nor would i say it's improving anyones lives.


it was your philosophical debates that deemed cloning of human cells unethical, despite the massive improvements to the medical industry it could have. if we weren't driving our ethics by your silly subjective debates and instead driving them by raw data as the scientific method dictates then the world would have advanced by leaps and bounds by now, we might even have colonies in space. hell maybe we could rid our selves of religious war and turmoil even. but no, we have people who think the world revolves around philosophical debates and pointless ideas based on their own personal bias running the show. science is superior to philosophy in every way because it is unbias raw data. to say philosophy is the root of science is wrong, if anything philosophy is the mutated mentally challenged cousin of science.
