And it is a philosophy of systematic type (i.e., is fundamentally doctrinal in form). Just an observation. It is not the classical philosophy, which represents an open-ended quest to know the "Why?" of the universe. School philosophies purport to give the explanation without us having to do any work at all. Instead of saying, "Go look for yourself!" a la Plato, it says: I know the truth of reality, and here it is: This is the explanation!

I do not care for the systemic philosophies for that very reason.

Thank you so very much for sharing your insights, dearest sister in Christ!

For they are all "doctrines of men...."
