Because you fail your own test of logic. If you say absolute philosophy is incorrect, you are defining philosophy with your own absolute definition. Thus, you agree, whether you like it or not, that philosophy is absolute.

If you said, 'philosophy could be subjective' you could hold that position logically. But if you say it is correct or incorrect, then the subjectivity goes out the window.

If I say "word's don't have any meaning" then clearly I am completely contradicting myself. If I say "word's could have/do have meaning" then that would be logically sound, since I am not contradicting the statement.

Do you understand?
The only freedom, is freedom from illusion.
