Don't they know there is a Religion and Spirituality subforum under Society and Culture?

Ignorance aggitates the Intellctuals. Either they don't know about it or they think that philosophhy just means "Ask Questions or State Proverbs on Life"
Either way, It's testing my patience

The fact that "philosophy applies" doesn't MEAN that a philosophical question --- in the domain of philosophy -- has anything to do with the derivative outcomes or implications it may produce.
We may as well talk about an omnipotent demon in outer outer space being the case--- With Cahn, and you can see just the same absurdity of "The Problem of Good" from that perspective as we do with all these other theodicies that assume too much, prove nothing, are contradictory, and give us nothing worth mentioning to work with in philosophy proper.
There is no philosophy of weed-whacking.
There is no philosophy of beer guts.

I'm not sure as to why they ask religious questions in the philosphy section, but I do have a question. What is the differance between religion, philosoph, and science? The way I see it, they are all trying to answer the same questions. I think when the three finally merge, we may actually have some answers to work with.

Because philosophy and religions are very related to each other.
I guess they think that philosopher is someone who thinks a lot and who is very inteligent, so this person will be able to answer those question that no one can answer for sure (religions questions)

For many of us, religion brings to us the philosophy of life we live by.

I believe everyone is entitled to make their own choices without someone acting like their parents.

I think for many people, the two are one and the same.
Maybe that's deplorable and maybe it's not. But there it is.

because some people think that religion can be explained through philiosophy and history.
