Is it possible to be such an authentic genius that due to your incomparably penetrating insights into reality itself, you are unable to understand philosophy due to its inferior basis for understanding.
I think that's what's going on with me

You're either Ireneo Funes or a retard
If you think philosophy gives any insight into reality, you're, uh... you're a little short of a genius there my buddy.
This is a material world.
yes, because i can feel them
And I am a material girl

philosophy is gradually becoming obsolete and will eventually go the way of alchemy and phrenology. neuroscience and information theory are encroaching into the domain of epistemology, economics and quantitative research into that of political 'theory'. Even ethics can be analysed through the lens of neuroscience and evo psych.
True.
>This is a material world.
orly?
Fun fact: every civilisation which declared philosophy to be obsolete broke down.

I think it will play an increasingly smaller role but I don't think it will fully disappear.
>neuroscience and information theory are encroaching into the domain of epistemology, economics and quantitative research into that of political 'theory'
Not familiar with epistemology but sure, and I would add genetics, complexity science and network science, biology and those kind of things - cognitive science or psychology will play a role that you might not like
>Even ethics can be analysed through the lens of neuroscience and evo psych.
Why evo psych?
logically no, because the superior mind can comprehend the inferior mind but not vice versa
>I think it will play an increasingly smaller role but I don't think it will fully disappear.
lol, we are at the point where western societies have to import people from more traditional societies because we aren't self-sustaining.
i don't think we are anywhere near having anything figured out once we start learning that we can't just brainwash those imported bodies and they have no intention of adopting our self-destructive "superior" forms of thought
Mathematics is neither penetrating nor relevant to reality.

> am i so smart i went full circle and became a retard?
no OP, you are just fucking stupid

I suppose it's possible
And those fields will require philosophical and ethical considerations. This always happens with technology and sciences why don't people understand. The details of the field are contained within it but it's action and manifestation and consequences in the world are outside of its scope.
You are just too into systemising the universe through one particular lens that isn't actually useful for percieving anything truly complex and chaotic like human affairs and relations. You can't work with that level of exactness on these matters cause it's simply intractable. Order is easy to follow. Chaos is harder to anticipate.
first post is the best post.

And this post is the most cynical.
OP should write verse, then. The historical default mode for those who feel as she does.
The reason I don't understand is not because I am too stupid, but because I am too smart. The thread!
the smug scottish man saves philosophy once more
>tfw to smart to be smart
ethical means a different thing in that context. I dont have the energy to explain it to you
no
you can be smart enough to refute certain philosophies but people will debate you. chances are those people would not be knowledgable in any science or they would come to a similar conclusion
humans are an increasingly obsolete component in the technological machinery. if you don't like it that's pure sentimentalism, eventually a machine will be able to do everything you do and do it better than you
>Why evo psych?
if you start thinking about society in terms of human nature and mating preferences, everything makes way more sense.
