Analytical philosophy has moved away from philosophy, and the world of analytical philosophy is too small

Does philosophy dwell in an unspeakable place? Should it only care about rigor?

The study of analytic philosophy is equivalent to the polynomial decomposition of philosophy, the decomposition of the complete polynomial of philosophy into the small items, and then the small items are studied separately, leaving the original large polynomial of philosophy alone. Analytical philosophy may assume that the larger framework of philosophy will come into being as long as the smaller parts of its content are studied well.

Although the research method of analytical philosophy is worthy of sympathy and understanding, such ideas and methods are not the correct way to study philosophy. Philosophy itself is the study of frames, and ignoring the frames to study the details is not effective, nor is it helpful to establish the frames. The correlation between the philosophical framework and the content is often weak, very weak, and the two seem to be disconnected. The philosophical content is of little or no help to the framework.

Philosophy is framed by three questions: what the world is like, what society is like, and what life is like. If you don't care about what the world is like, what society is like, what life is like; The question of language is too close to life for philosophy. One cannot see the wood for the trees. Philosophy does not need to do such things, but sociology, education and linguistics.

To analyze the decomposition of philosophy to philosophy and divide the macroscopic frame of philosophy into details means the disappearance of frame and the extinction of philosophy. Philosophy without its framework is no longer philosophy, transformed into the expertise of socially segmented industries. Philosophy is the comprehensive knowledge of cognitive framework, not the knowledge of subdivision of industries. It can not be split, and there is no need to do split research. It is enough to study the basic framework, and the content is dealt with by professional knowledge.

Maybe analytical philosophy thinks its methods are useful to society, but society doesn't approve of them. From the social point of view, philosophy is primarily the study of cognitive frameworks. The study of cognitive framework, if philosophy does not do, who will do, who will answer the question of what the world, society and life are like. There is no one in the society to study the philosophical framework, even if they want to change people, there is no one to change, because the fact is too difficult, people are not willing to do it. In other words, if philosophy can't answer the frame question well, the probability that someone else can can be regarded as zero.

You can't get away from what philosophy should do. It's not easy to have a cognitive framework and to look like one. In view of the difficult situation of analytical philosophy, he can be presented with a framework, a small and simple framework, a simplified version of the Tao Te Ching.

Tao begets one, life begets two, two begets three, and three begets all things. All things are born into being and being into nothing. The way of heaven is beneficial and harmless, and heaven and earth have no relatives, often with good people.

This is such a simple framework, very concise, that all three questions of philosophy are answered. As for the content and details outside the frame, fill them in slowly. This framework is very useful, and there is no other framework that is more concise and useful. This framework can last long enough to be used without any problems for the foreseeable future. The answers to the three questions are as follows:

1, the world: Tao gives birth to all things, and there is no birth. As for how to live the afterlife, mathematicians, physicists to explain.

2, society: heaven and earth without close, equal treatment, benefits without harm, symbiosis and growth. Content is a sociological thing.

Life: often with good people, often do good. Psychology, education, behavior, etc., their own efforts.

This is the philosophy, look at the framework of the line, do not rob the subdivision of professional play. Philosophy lays the foundation, and expertise plays the role. If analytic philosophy goes along the old way of language study, if it is in wulin river's lake, it may be cleared up by the philosophy circle and classified as a school of linguistics.
