Is philosophy the oldest subject there is? The oldest subject ever?
It’s the Queen of the sciences.
I thought that was theology.
Philosophy came before theology. Philosophy was the first subject of all, and everything branched off of it. Physics. And chemistry and maths. And art. Leaving only … philosophy.
And what’s philosophy when it’s just leftover stuff?
I wonder about that sometimes.
When it’s just bits and pieces. Broken things. Scraps and fragments.
Maybe now’s the time when philosophy can come into its own. As nothing. As nothing important.
As irrelevant, you mean. As useless as all the humanities.
No – as even more useless. As, like, hyperbolically pointless. As being for nothing. Burning up for NOTHING, in capital letters. Like some great sacrifice …
