Also reducing everything's worth to its contribution to the world is pretty lame desu

Seriously fuck off. Just accept that you've chosen to spend your time on something that has no benefit to the world whatsoever.

Nice meme'd

>Got two good counterarguments
>Just fuck off and admit I'm right

Why the hell do so many /sci/ fags feel the need to prove to everyone around them how much more useful they are than them and their mothers, even though in most cases they haven't really achieved anything personally? Are you guys seriously that insecure? Yeah, science is useful as hell, nobody denies that, so fucking what?

They're right though lol. The first scientists were natural philosophers, see the Greeks.

>actually thinks le science is philosophy is an argument
Scientists aren't concerned with anything but describing the world, positivists may choose to use that data to draw their theories about ethics, morals and so on, but it's not science

It's still a better argument than "fuck off and tell me I'm right". Besides, the argument he replied to stated only that philosophy created science, which is correct.

And the man who invented the stone wheel in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-in-indirectly created modern race cars, right?
Every bit of human knowledge draws from something before, it's retarded to credit a bunch of pedophile greeks who believed in elements from 2500 years ago for industrial scientific achievements
>>
>>1918266
And philosophers who lived after them invented the basics of modern scientific methods. Also philosophers invented a shit ton of social and economical laws and ideas, including, for example, human laws.

Listen, I'm not going to pretend that modern philosophy is as useful to humanity as science, at least in terms of measurable achievements, because it obviously isn't. But stating that it is completely worthless is false.
