isn't the beauty about philosophy that it's not a science like maths that depends on norms set by predecessors, and instead is an abstract concept of thought that can be used by everybody to answer the questions ones mind makes?.

I'm mean this guy is just a Sperglord, but i think even the village idiot could be in his philosophic viewpoint be his own Socrates
