I completely agree with you that many philosophers have made major mistakes, and that even some of the greater philosophers made very serious mistakes. But that is definitely no reason to write them all off. There is much that is true and good there. And all truth is God's truth. We can, as Christians have long said, plunder the gold of the Egyptians. And thus we can mine the wisdom of the philosophers.

All I,m saying is that these philosophers should not have any influence on Christianity because they are either humanist,atheist,existentialist,satanist.
There is a demonic influence on these people and some of their works are finding their way into so called Christian movements via "New Age" Christianity.
