Question

Philosophy is an academic discipline that exercises reason and logic inan attempt to understand reality and answer fundamental questions about knowledge, life, morality and human nature. The ancient Greeks, who were among the first to practice philosophy, coined the term, which means "love of wisdom." Those who study philosophy are called philosophers. Through the ages, philosophers have sought to answer such questions as, what is the meaning and purpose of life? How do we know what we know? Does God exist? What does it mean to possess consciousness? And, what is the value of morals?

The way it can also be seen is that philosofy, rather than provide you with such answers, sets a path for us to come up with our own interpretation of those kinds of questions. Let's take this question, for instance: Does God exist? Nietzsche said he has died but, does that mean he ever existed? Descartes: "Cogito ergo sum", How can someone thinks if not existed already? Philosofy gives you the tools to think of reality and come up with your own thoughts of it. So perhaps it is more accurate to see philosofy as "the mother of all sciences" and start from such an affirmation
