Philosophy Versus Science

RE: Philosophy Versus Science
(July 18, 2025 at 1:07 pm)BrianSoddingBoru4 Wrote: If a scientific theory or finding doesn’t jibe with philosophy, that’s a problem for philosophers, not scientists.

In certain ways, scientific discoveries have become so counter-intuitive that I don't believe any philosopher could have come to the same conclusions. So I'm not sure what philosophers could propose that might assist scientists.

I would love to hear Christians say the same thing, but I think they are too far beyond that point already.
