It's the philosopher's greatest enemy

Science is a philosophy, by definition.

So is radical Islam, but you never see philosotards trying to claim credit for that.

Anything that is a way of thinking is to be considered philosophy. Everything from the human perspective can only be understood through abstract ideas, even experience of the outside world itself. Therefor, relatively speaking, some trains of thought is superior than others. We decide that by how useful these things are in our everyday life, or impact on society.

Most people would agree that generally
Science>metaphysics>religion
However, in the long terms of things, many would argue that philosophers help society appreciate truth seeking and what leads to the average citizen to take up science. This is why many philosophers were scientists, even with the begginning of the greeks.

But I would say all of these things, philosophy, religion, and science, are very closely related and sort of depend on each other in some way. Maybe not so much with science since it is more restricted, but you get the point.

Btw forget to add, for those who say but science is more superior because it is more realistic than abstract woo ha, you're retarded.

You forget that science is only valuable because philosophers figured out epistemology, which makes the scientific method so efficient. Get cucked

Philosophers are Universal Scientists, while Natural / Physical Scientists are just particular scientists specialized in one field of study--like a craftsman. Or to better put it, just like how Engineers are to Particular scientists, Particular scientists are to Universal Scientists (Philosophers).

Yes, interesting arguments come from scientific knowledge, for example, the argument against dualism stating that it would violate the law of conservation of energy.
