How much do you like philosophy?

[Rayaan]

To me this kind of philosophy is very different to the one implied in the OP. A different meaning almost. You may call creating goals and methodology "philosophy", I think it's a rather loose use of the term personally.

Then I suppose the disagreement mainly depends on one's understanding as to what constitutes philosophy.

I've always understood the meaning of the word "philosophy" in a broader sense, as it is used today. Philosophy generally includes any mental acitivity that deals with the abstract nature of things and/or when we try to synthesize different ideas (or even factual information) in a consistent and meaningful fashion. In that sense, the process of creating goals and methodology in computer programming can be classified as a field in philosophy because it requires thinking about some abstract aspects before doing the actual, physical work. You can see some examples of those at the link that I provided.

It was a joke, douche bag. I realize that as a Muslim you're somewhat humor impaired by necessity, but do try to think outside the box occasionally.

I highly doubt that was a joke. It didn't sound like a joke at all, and I'm pretty sure other members who will read that post won't interpret it be so as you claim.

Well, nice try playing the "I was just joking" card, but try a little harder next time if you ever decide to use that again.
