>but philosophy is dead.

i can't stand this stupid statement. it was never "alive" nor "dead". philosophy is the most basic human feature. it's the main distinction between us humans and other animals. we reflect our own worldview with it.

no science is possible without curiosity and the the curiosity leads to philosophical thoughts which can lead to scientifical ones.

anybody to stupid to comprehend this shouldn't do any science at all.

go read some russell.

There should be an /art/, imo.

If you need to relabel every reflective thought as "philosophy", then you are grasping at straws. You made the very concept of "philosophy" redundant and meaningless. Congratulations and thanks for demonstrating how dead philosophy really is.

I would also like a philosophy board.

/sci/ is too full of autists with no idea what philosophy is. It's like mentioning Jews on /pol/. /lit/ is almost worse because they are just continental retards.
