Do we? What do you think about that?

Philosophy is not about answers. An answer suggests a truth. It's about a way of thinking and viewing the world.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Socrates

'Specifically, Socrates is renowned for developing the practice of a philosophical type of pedagogy, in which the teacher asks questions of the student in order to elicit the best answer, and fundamental insight, on the part of the student.'

Simply answering questions is not memorable for an other. Secure and lasting learning demands effort and a movement through the paths of reasoning. Questioning facilitates that movement.

The Will is positive, the Judgment is negative.

Philosophers, ask questions until they find the answer. Then, they move on to another question. They also teach and explain to those who have not questioned, or are not capable of explaining situations.. Questions are the variety of life, and finding the answers is like resolving a puzzle.. Once learned it is most enjoyable to share the knowledge.. Not to impress, but to enhance an-others knowledge.. You always get back twice the reward, by giving and sharing. There is no greater reward than to share!!!! SOLOMON

Yes and debate and whittle and resound. A lot of philosophers seem to like the sound of their own voices.

there is often settlement--someplace. Hegel believed Kant. Marx believed Hegel. Lenin believed Marx. Augustine believed Plato. That delivered approximately the dark a while. Ayn Rand believed Aristotle. That delivered approximately her being solid, earlier "political correctness" had a popularity, as being "hateful." yet Thomas Aquinas believed Aristotle, and that delivered approximately the Enlightenment. The Cato Institute, The Ayn Rand Institute, the midsection for Objectivist study, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie understand "enlightenment" while they see it--wish those 2 success getting "Atlas Shrugged" made. are you able to verify Pitt as John Galt? Jolie would be awsome as Dagney Taggart. maximum readers revere the "benign existentialism" of Albert Camus. Who can deny "The Plague" is a great novel? "The rebellion" is a considerate paintings on philosophical insurrection. Kant is the main influential logician; additionally the main complicated and the main irrational. he's in charge for greater confusion in philosophy than Socrates who's provided in 2d. yet many take him "at his be conscious," "on faith," and haven't any theory what they're agreeing to with the aid of fact one can not understand the irrational--take merely take it on "faith." yet Rand is provided in 2d in being influential--influential to those that take no longer something on faith and each little thing on reason. She has thousands and thousands of dedicated followers worldwide extensive, and much greater critics who're too "politically superb" to settle for that she gave Aristotle lower back to the twentieth century the way Aquinas gave him lower back to the midsection a while.

maybe, it depends on the question but when a question is asked they keep asking questions to find an answer

philosophy is a word game that intellectuals play with eachother when they seek to delve into mysticism. all end are hypothetical, and pursed long enough, all logic is circular. philosophy has no answers, only more questions to ponder and dwell on.

in philosophy, the question is more important than the answer.

the answer can vary from person to person but only one thing remains - they all try to answer the same question.
