And there are many schools of philosophy and none of them has all the answers.Scientists cannot study God and things of the spirit. Both are outside the parameters of science because science is limited to physical matter. That is why God, religion, and spiritual matters belong in the realm of philosophy. When anything spiritual edges into the physical world, then anyone interested in truth and fact should be open to what science reveals to us. God stands for truth. He is unafraid of truth, and so should we.I’m not so sure about that. Empirical trust in a process (science) that will assiduously test and challenge, vs, “faith”, well, there’s a HUGE difference. Theistic principles are undemonstrated whereas materialist ones are testable, falsifiable, and empirically constant.
Would you take exception at your religion being called a philosophy and that it was no more valid than any other school of philosophy?
Personally I am partial to Stoicism.
