It seems like it at best allows you to formulate good arguments to defend a certain position but not actually answering anything. Just looking at the fields of philosophy like political/legal philosophy, philosophy of religion, philosophy of ethics. All of these fields just allow you to formulate decent arguments but its not until science comes along that anything can be proven. So like it seems like its really a waste of time desu.

Most of the questions it discusses can't really be accounted for by any sort of science as it has to do with something spiritual or just general understanding of things.

I think he mixed up his snack and golf schedule. He only plays golf for half an hour according to this schedule

The point is not to answer questions, it is to point out errors in judgment.

Kek come back dunking on philosophy when physics will have discovered the grand unified theory of everything and then I'll take this argument seriously.

Why is this thread still up? Philosophy isn't science or math

It can answer all the answerable questions.
It just so happens that many questions are undecidable from our limited perspective. Just like how a turing machine cannot compute the halting of programs run on the turing machine, even though the human being above can use creativity to prove that a machine terminates.

Philosophy has never answered a question. They just create more questions and act like they've accomplished something by making more.
