Since Plato is by far, the best philosopher of all time and only a few other authors in the history of Western philosophy approximate him in depth and range: perhaps only Aristotle (who studied with him), and Kant would be generally agreed to be of the same rank.

Which of these last two will take second place as the best philosopher in history? Aristotle or Kant?.

Plato Descartes And Kant

>Descartes
Probably the worst philosopher of all time along with >>19412432

Also, Kant refuted Rand and BTFO Descartes.

Hegel is good, you can put him on the same range as Schopenhauer and Aquinas; but Kant and Aristotle are on another level.

No. Aquinas is superior to Hegel, Schopenhauer and even Aristotle.

How the fuck were the Greeks so smart? Like seriously did they have some special way of thinking that was lost in time?

I kinda agree.

>and even Aristotle
I don't agree. Can you explain me why you consider Aquinas to be better than The Philosopher?.

Husserl is better than both, and also Plato.

Husserl admited Hume was better than him and became aPlatonist later in life. So Plato is still better than him my boy.

Why you consider him better than Aristotle and Kant?. I know he had some differences with Kant and I don't know his relationship with Aristotle.
