Your Philosophy

[Angrboda]

Many of my positions don't have well established labels, so I improvised:

Metaphysics: agnosticism of the metaphysical
Ontology: transcendental arealism based on biological and computational neuroscience, process ontology
Epistemology: relativistic pragmatism based on coherence theories of truth and social psychology
Ethics: None
Economics: Capitalist
Politics: Social progressive leaning towards apoliticism

Other: Eliminative materialist, mereological nihilist, Taoist, Shakta Hindu

I love my Gwynnies!

Which is a mathematical theology of four units, or you could read some tao. I love my Gwynnies only thing Lao Tzu didn't say.

My philosophy is as follows:




Fuck bitches get money
Ain't got no time to waste honey

[MindForgedManacle]

Rand certainly was not a good philosopher by any means but reason is a perfectly good epistimology, rather than revelation for instance. When Rand used 'reason' she meant by rational inquiry based on observation.

You might have missed my point. Labelling one's epistemology under the word 'reason' is not useful or explanatory at all. It doesn't tell you whether or not experience is primary in acquiring knowledge, an exercise in pure reason, or somewhere on the scale between those extremes. Even a relevation-based 'epistemology' will make use of reason to some extent, at least as an attempt at justifying why one accepts it.

Whilst I certainly do not follows rands beliefs I find the ranting by leftists who object not to here ability at Philosophy but to her Freemarket policies boring in the extreme, especially when they subscribe to such absurd politics as many do themselves.

I didn't bring up anything about her economics views.

Yeah, I don't fit yer model. And nilihism is stupid.

Nihilism is merely the rejection of irrational or unproven assertions. Atheism is religious nihilism.

I'd say being an atheist nearly always results in being at least an existential nihilist. It just follows naturally. Though, I'd say you could argue essentially everyone is an existential nihilist, really. Unless they want to hold to a sort of hypocritical and atrocious view anyway.

Speak for yourself, Kemosabe. That you are ignorant of alternatives doesn't mean they don't exist.

[Zen Badger]

My philosophy is that of the fourfold path of the B's

Bikes, boobs, beer, bacon.

This makes for a happy Badger.
