An inconsistent triad. 1. It is bad to give a philosophy exam asking questions like "Is there free will?," "Is the soul immaterial?," "Is anything supernatural?" 2. Saying metaphysics matters to providence is like God giving a bad philosophy exam. 3. God is a good philosopher.

Why is it so obvious that the white billionaire Trump supporter from South Africa was not giving a Nazi salute?

Can we analytic philosophers admit that the reason we don't read books by "continental" philosophers isn't that they are "unclear" - after all, we haven't read them - but that those books are very large, and contain a lot of words?

The real question of life after death isn’t whether or not it exists, but even if it does what problem this really solves. - Ludwig Wittgenstein

That when someone is clearly lying we don't just stop him and say "Dude, you are clearly lying," we just let him go on lying because it is the polite thing to do.

Vance is promoting the idea that length of time in the US is important but he does not include this question in figuring out the consequences of such a view.

All philosophers make claims, to be sure, but what separates analytic philosophers from the rest is that we put numbers in front of our claims.

I could never get a bad science book published but scientists get to write bad philosophy all the time.

What is the point of grounding a philosophical claim in science? Among the things we can be most certain about is that many of our current scientific claims - especially about cosmology - will be denied in, say, 100 years. Appeal to science is an appeal to (temporal) popularity.
