Yes, religions are based on and filled with woo. That's why they're religions. Nevertheless, if people find meaning in it (which they do - there's a use for it) and it doesn't harm others (which it doesn't, within reason), who gives a fuck?

Science renders Philosophy useless i mean we really don't need it anymore.
Why get a degree in philosophy anymore anyways and why learn about it...?
People get degrees in philosophy for the same reason others learn about it somewhat: curiosity.
Also, you do know that fallacies and logic belong in the realm of philosophy, right?
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?
