Real philosopers dont hide behind such cheap defenses. Real philosophers own the philosophy they subscribe to and they admit to the assumprtions, prerequisites and possible flaws of it. Belaqua is only here to stroke his ego, and philosophy is the tool he is using.Not sure. It is entirely possible that he has merely been enamoured of the philosophers of antiquity such as Aristotle, Plato, Acquinas and so forth. But guess what? Philosophy has moved on from all that, as has science, as have people. Bel is merely stuck in the past. A lot in the past. He is much like an undergrad who discovers Aristotle or Plato for the very first time, yet never moved beyond that point.
