It has never been philosophy's charge to move mountains, though, like religion - and inseparable with religion, mind you - it has been the fuel that unifies men to do so. Perhaps it is an incomparable thing when it comes to the provision of food, water, and family, but it is the imperative that brings these things together beyond the ken of any individual stomach, any individual tongue.
And then came existentialism. |
Exhibit A your honour.

lol so science is useless too, since it only explains what already exists?? |
science does more than that, it enables us to mould the world in our image.

science is philosophy which relates to the physical world, also a type of philosophy is used to rationalise and implement any construction, and so it most likely did play a part in the pyramids |
all the philosophies that actually have a point and are useful go by another name, ie political science.
I have no idea why you’re bothering to discuss this with me given my earlier statement…Perhaps you’re too busy contemplating the true meaning and metaphysical existence of my words, rather than just understanding their existence as defined by the dictionary of reality?

I have no idea what lira just said, but I suspect it’s bollocks, because that’s what 99% of philosophy is. the 1% that isn’t bollocks is called political science. |

I know you're joking, as you probably remember Plato, Hobbes and Marx and how they contributed to your field before your field existed. However, because there seems to be some problems with the argumentation here, and philosophy and science have loads to one and teach to one another, here's a small graph because I can't be arsed to make an argument tonight... I'm short of time and html is simpler:
Trippy philosophical inception ---------------------------> Hot scientific destination | Clarification of ideas <--------------------------- Loads of discoveries | Philosophy | Formal Sciences (Pythagoras? In my maths?) | Maths | Natural Sciences (fka "Natural Philosophy", heh) | Physics | Chemistry | Life Sciences (Aristotally scientific!) | Biology | Medicine | Social Sciences (Ancient librul arts!) | Anthropology | Linguistics | Psychology | Political Science | Sociology | *fap fap fap* <---------------------------> *pew pew pew* |
Philosophy makes better scientists, science makes better philosophers; hot girls make me hot and religion makes me reel... hence the name, I guess
