The history of philosophy: 1. How does it work and how do we best situate ourselves? 2. Believe and do what we say so you go to a nice place 3. Where does all come from and how is it? 4. Here we are, so let's make the best of it. 5. Let's do math and say none else can be known!

Sick hearing “reality is an illusion” as if that were deep news. One must be an idiot (or philosopher) to think impressions are more than approximates. But we still experience objects and processes and need to and can manipulate them and ourselves. So spare us your ethereal BS.
