i read your bio, and think we could have a discussion about philosophy.

I have studied human thought for 60 years, and here is my conclusion about philosophy.

There are no sacred epiphanies, or philosophical equations per se.

There is no organized philosophy per se.

So what is the goal of the intellectual search? What lies out there in the minds of the great philosophers.

Simply raw knowledge.

It is simple, simply to learn as much as one can, because the result is what science calls:" Knowledge Directed Perception"-i.e. one cannot see what they do not understand.

So as you learn your intellectual vision widens.

And so that leads to the ultimate philosophy "existentialism" which is actually nothing more profound than awareness of higher order (abstract) thinking.

That is all there is--learn as much as you can, because if you don't you will go through life intellectually blind.

Cheers.
