Philosophy is the root of every science. It asks the question "why" about aspects of life, and we then seek the answers. Chemistry, Biology, Psychology, etc. all started from asking "why" something works the way it does. In early philosophy, the supernatural was used to answer most of the questions. The more we look for facts and judge evidence objectively, the less we chalk it up to "magic." Have we regressed in philosophy to where instead of an active search for truth and facts, it is a passive collection of proofless whims?
