No, you did not answer the question.
"What would you consider a 'philosophical argument' that is not an "idea I pulled out of my ass".
You generalized, but did not pose any single example.
As to proof or evidence: Proof of what? Evidence of what?
Proof and evidence in a philosophical environment are fleeting at best.
Do you have any proof that my assumptions are not correct?
Do you have any proof that reality even exists?
Do you have any proof that we are not 'Brains-in-a-vat"?
Do you have any proof that god exists?
Do you have any proof that god does not exist?
Can you even prove to me that you are nothing more than a figment of my imagination?
I know that I cannot prove to anyone but myself that I exist and I have no idea what exactly that existence is, ergo these discussions.
"I think, therefore I am" or any semblance thereof is proof of nothing.

You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
