And I see now that WN updated the thread title, which is great.
The bolded is ESSENTIAL to understand.
Philosophy encompasses ALL disciplines.
Courses in "Political Philosophy", "Philosophy of Science", and "Philosophy of Religion" are all offered in most Philosophy Departments.
Last week I attempted to engage in an Ethics thread in SMP, and was told by a mod there (Zeno) that I couldn't introduce God into the conversation.
Rather curious that Augustine, Aquinas and "The Divine Command"Theory of Ethics" is off-limits in a "Philosophy" forum.
