Giovanna Cramblit: No it is not.
Virgil Loatman: Mormonism: Conscientious. Buddhism: wide wide awake. Islamic: Self-wide wide awake. Paganism: Sylph-wide wide awake. Satanism: Syphilisous. Atheism: Supercilious. Catholicism: Superstitious. Christianity: Supercalifragilistic. Agnosticism: Serendipitous.
Galen Gowers: Ummm...no. I am a Protestant Christian and have studied several philosophers over the course of my college education and there is no parallel between the two.This is the same problem people have who can't get their minds around the fact that science and its methods exist, and so does God if you believe Him to be. The two subjects are not one, and until people start realizing this there will continue to be this lovely close-mindedness you speak of in your question.There is the definite ability for all in the world to cohesively exist, it's not always "one or the other" and black and white, like you are trying to make it. That's where ignorance co! mes into play.Religion is religion, and philosophy is philosophy. There is a reason they have different names, stop trying to lump them together and compare apples and oranges....Show more
Sharolyn Claybourn: Religion is man's attempt to make himself worthy of God.Philosophy is man's attempt to become God.(NOTE: "True Christianity is not a religion' it's a relationship with God."
Sibyl Siwik: As simply as possible, religion is more generally about a belief in something/someone greater than humanity, whereas philosophy is more concerned with intellectual debate on the nature of humanity.
Randa Hessell: a complete waste of timethe interpretation of life is not important to life itself. the point is to live your life and change it
Tyler Burkman: I don;t think so. I think ... Religion (not the organized religion) is the movement of the self to discover what is truth. Or the movement of the mind from darkness to light.Philosophy is also the discovery of! truth.They are both geared to the discovery of truth....Show ! more
Codi Manchel: Some philosophy is "blind thinking".
Melina Minneweather: Sort of but not really!Religion is what you believe, and live as a result of that belief.Philosophy does get the mental juices flowing, but I have found that at some point, they become intertwined.The parables Jesus related did set you thinking - He spoke philosophically to the minds of the listeners and his disciples, moreso. He gave them words of wisdom; told them stories which were intended to get them to think about the meaning rather than be spoon-fed information. Yet, he was a rabbi, not a philosopher....Show more
Alexis Reyer: Not really. history has shown on multiple occasions that religion has been the primary driver of enlightenment and progress. Philosophy is great for social upheaval, but there have been few technological advances made in the name of philosophy. To me, religion is adherance to another human's method of trying to contemplate the divine. Philosophy! is more adherance to another human's method of trying to comprehend humanity....Show more
Clemmie Burkleo: Religion is a philosophy that some philosophers created for the less mortals to follow. If you are intelligent you will talk of Philosophy & religion both , if not you have no choice but to follow religion
Azalee Ahrendes: You might say that. Religion is something that holds on to the old way of life, religion has never done anything in this world but help tear it apart. Philosophy is about ideas, growth, and exploration of ourselves and the world around us. Philosophy is what revolutionizes and changes the world over and over again, religion is what devides people and creates rifts. I think everyone should have their own philosophy, if you just attach yourself to someone else's then their philosophy becomes your religion....Show more
