Is the way we use something as a table or use a river as a road a science or philosophy Q(ie metaphysics Q)?

Question

I know some think a yes/no or T/F type answer is an answer, but do you think they are philosophical A's? What's missing?

Answer 1

Doesn't it all boil down to what the Schoolmen (Duns Scotus in particular I think) used to call 'nomilalism?' If so it's a philosophy.

Answer 2

But a philosopher is just a posh name for a thinking man. There are many philosophers known to the world where we too are philosophers of the makings of our lives, as simple, as easy, and as enjoyable as we could. We are also known in the world for our own philosophy, for this is how other people immediately around us know us and feel joy in accepting us as we are. And if our philosophy, our peculiar way of life, be it a river or a simple road, is adequate enough, we share the pleasures of our friends and acquaintances.

There however are no metaphysics known in the world. There are no idiosyncratic people accepted but not understood. But the irony of the case is that we all have our own peculiar ways of looking at things, our own interpretations of most common of the matters of life. We cannot be but purely metaphysical within the inner most reassesses of our mind. We dream differently, and they are differently strange. But when we relate our dreams to other people they would understand them still differently. In short there is no way to look into the mind of another person, where things happen most strangely for all other people, but for ourselves.
