About This Activity
For a brief but useful definition of philosophy consider the following: we humans are passionate and meticulous in our pursuit of answers to the preceding kinds of issues, so philosophy is the passionate, systematic pursuit of knowledge of the real and the good. Such pursuit certainly involves solitary reflection, but ultimately philosophy is not a solitary pursuit. A philosophy of something is an effort to identify and explore the basic concepts, positions, issues, and controversies in a field of activity. A philosophy of something is always an attempt to identify the central concepts, concerns, issues, and positions in a field. To that extent, it is an attempt to be objective and simply set things forth the way things are in some field. It is a tool to help you develop your own thoughts whether they agree with mine or not. Philosophy of religion consists of identifying some of the most basic concepts, positions, issues, and controversies in or about religion.
