Philosophy means love for wisdom. It comes from Greek word Philo + Sophia = Philosophy. Its not a discursive thing. It has to be simple and a philosopher is a keen observer of all that is in existence. See certain philosophers like Heraclitus, Lao Tzu, Hymns of the Vedas simple and natural. It becomes boring and tedious when its complicated and full of erudition like the that of logic -- one can see the Nyaya system of Indian Philosophy its only discurssive leading nowhere.

Base it on the purity of the philosophy. Is it a pure philosophy or is it tainted with weaknesses and poor reasoning. Use the most basic Chinese philosophies as an example...... pure and simple reasoning.

Because It is emerged from Possibilities and there is no any absolute knowledge in any possibility. Just,we have a lot of possibilities and we will choose the one which is more closer to us. That's why, possibilities make philosophy general.

Philosophy-not philosophies- should not give sayings out, unless
these are applicable into life and make it better. No statement is valid unless it can be applied and show some improvement to
whom it applied it. (period).

Be philosophical about it and just walk away! But then that's just my philosophy; you might want to take that with a grain.

the different centers of the mind have minds of their own, evolved to handle specific and limited situations, and are all bunched together in the mind. they seem to run themselves,outside of consciousness. our minds are disorganized, full of conflict. minds come into consciousness and transfer reactions all the time. this swapping of reactions leaves our consciouseness unaware of how a new and different mind in place is determining our reactions. ..........evolutionary biology
