How can something both be a mammal, and swim like a fish? Philosophy also had a hard time with that apparent contradiction. But eventually a highly extensible branch of philosophy extended itself to encompass this apparent conundrum. This branch concerns itself with Establishing testable understanding of how the world really works, not with building little card houses of self reference, nor with making vehement but idle and unprovable speculations based on one ancient holy book or another. This branch is called natural philosophy, Most working scientists are therefore Doctors of Philosophy, also known as PhD. Perhaps you've heard of it?
