How much do you like philosophy?

[Whateverist]

For those poor bastards like myself for whom the answer to every question isn't patently obvious, philosophy is required. That doesn't mean one must find their answer in some musty old book written by someone with a degree in philosophy. Really just the opposite. It means you yourself must engage in philosophizing unless you are willing to accept answers on authority. There is no getting around it but you are certainly permitted to call it something else and to go on misunderstanding what philosophy is about.
