Your making a claim that making a claim is philosophy
And I'd call that claim philosophical lol
And that’s also a claim
and?
so is experimenting philosophy?
What do you consider the act of experimenting
Usually people associate this with some cognitive process
putting to chemicals together for example
two
do you record your observations?
no
Does anyone conciouslly ask questions about it
no
Ok so in the world were two robots put two chemicals together and no one sees it or makes claims about it, this is claimless
so I wouldn't call this philosophy
any more than you call two distant planets colliding philosophy
If you attempt to study that behavior though?
or study anything
That is inherently philsophical
G'day fellas
yeah
so anything that humans consciously do is philosophy ?
any claims they make
Your a human
really philosophy is answering claims, I guess just a claim is just pure logic
whats the difference?
But I don't see a strong line between the two
between a claim and an action conciously made
If I say "No, a circle is not square, because circles are defined as X while squares are Y and X cannot equal Y" that's a logical argument
And therefore philosophy
@Fran that's not a logical statement, it is a claim followed by evidence
wait now you are changing your terms
@inky i literally just said I'd probably just define logical claims as logic
so , gravity exists, a logical claim is not philosophy
That's not a purely logical claim
You're making a claim about physical reality
Sorry about that, I did not read your text correctly
so is, a circle is square
Fran what shape is the earth
