Step 1: Epistemology
Step 2: Logic
Step 3: Metaphysics
Step 4: Aesthetics.
Step 5: Ethics.

Algorithm: "Choose the field of Philosophy that can best answer the question you start with".

1. Get some idea about what other philosophers thought before you, throughout the history of philosophy, including the present, including living philosophers
2. Get a critical mentality: get aware of how philosophers have always been very critical about everything
3. Get awareness of yourself as a human, your uniqueness in the history of this world, get familiar with literature, art, sport, religions, life, news, history
4. Use your self awareness, together with all other knowledge that you have acquired, to criticise everything, including your own criticism, including the algorithms that you are using, consciously and unconsciously
5. Now you are, presumably, hopefully, in the ideal maturity to create your own philosophy and contribute to the growth of humanity.

The two and most important that are left out: Physica and Theologica. The order then is:

1). Theologica
2). Physica
3). Metatheologica
4). Metaphysica
5). Epistemologica
6). Logica-Mathematica
7). Aesthetica
8). Ethica
9). Politica
10)???ica

You completed the list then, mon ami! Merci beaucoup!

:grin: What do you think I am? Socrates' avatar? You know what? I do feel like the Athenian gadfly, when he was about 2! :lol:

Nonetheless, good advice! Muchas gracias señor!

I like how you put ethics last! :up:

From my speculative cookbook:

1. negative ontology – understanding what reality is by negating (defining) what reality is not (i.e. necessarily excludes)

2. negative axiology – judging values (existential priorities) by negating disvalues:
(a) aesthetics ~indifference / waste
(b) ethics ~harm / injustice
(c) logic ~error / nonsense

3. negative epistemology – unlearning maladaptive practices (habitus) e.g. unknowing, agnotogies, denialism, magical thinking ... — A sketch of (an) apophatic metaphysics

Re: [negative ontology^^ [n_axiology [n_epistemology]]]

^^a generalization of negative theology ...

You da man 180 Proof

Would I be correct if I said that your philosophy is scientific to the degree it emphasizes (the avoidance of) falsehoods while trying its best to approximate truths?

Yeah, approximately. :wink:
