How has modern philosophy dealt with causation? How has it integrated what we have learned about quantum mechanics?
Now, I do agree that aesthetics, ethics, etc, are good things to study and are aspects of philosophy. I just don't see them as being knowledge as opposed to refined opinion. But that is also philosophy.
And just where do think modern physics got its theory of causation?
And what do you think the theory of causation is in modern physics?
The *only* thing that is even remotely close is the statement that events outside of each others light cones have vanishing anti-commutators.
