1. Introduction - Q1: What are the major themes and questions of philosophy?
There are many, but the most persistent of these would include the following:
What is existence?
Do we exist, and why?
What is reality?
What can we know?
What is knowledge?
What is truth?
What is the purpose and meaning of life?
Why is the individual important?
What is our function within society?
Is there a difference between “appearance” and “reality”?
Do we possess free will, or are our actions determined?
What is morality?
S: This work introduces a new metaphysical perception, which presents specific answers to these twelve questions. All of the questions are addressed in great detail throughout the work, The War and Peace of a New Metaphysical Perception. In fact the very purpose of the work is to explain the shortcomings generated by the Aristotelian Cartesian system and the Hegelian non-Cartesian system in regards to their developing conflicting answers to these twelve questions.
But the work does more than simply point out the shortcomings of the two metaphysical systems.
