"...most "philosophy" is all bullshit."

LOL... Hume OR Kant? I once copied the opening sentence from major works of Hume AND Kant and posted them on the Dept. of Phil. bulletin board, with my comment right under them.

"Well...so far, so good..."

It seems they began with almost exactly the same 'first principle'... "all knowledge begins with experience"

Nawww, John... it ain't bullshit- it just ain't about answers, but about how to ask questions, and how to recognize reasonable attempts at answers. Most 'bullshit' comes from trying to take shortcuts and generalize in order to pretend one HAS answers. (watch Congress on C-Span)
