What's the point of philosophy any more?

You have to love it, or you're doing it wrong!

That comes awfully close to what the religious say about finding faith.

It's in the word.  I didn't make it.

Seriously, though, you can call it whatever you want, but people have a lot of free time and they're going to ask questions. Those questions which aren't explicitly pragmatic, like "How do I bake a cake?" are philosophical. If you have a problem with philosophy, you have a problem with questions-- and that's the sign of a dull mind, indeed.
