Again Plato had a "philosophy" of "essence". People have economic "philosophies" and political "philosophies".
That is why I hate the word. Instead of using the word "philosophy" in regard's to scientific method, call it what it is "a tool". A Jew and a Muslim can argue over a god, they cannot argue over DNA which was uncovered by the tool of scientific method.
