Abstract

We continue with our conversation on the function and role of philosophy, why philosophy is pertinent even for those who have no interest in it, what some dangers associated with it might be, how to understand Paul's warning against "vain philosophy" and "worldly wisdom," how philosophy can provide us with language and sense of companionship to make sense of our thoughts and experiences, what are some of the ways in which philosophy might be helpful to faith and life and general, how philosophy as a sense-making endeavor is essential for the functioning of society and civilizational development, and how the integrating task of any philosophizing finds its ultimate expression in the One who holds all things together.
