Philosophy and Overlaps
Question
Rabbi Michael Abraham, hello.
You talk a lot about interpretations of different fields, like science and others, in relation to philosophy, and you cry out that one should not confuse the fields. Where can I read about this in more detail, online or in books? (Yours, others’, and so on.)
Answer
I don’t recall any cries of anguish from me about mixing fields of knowledge. It is true that it’s best not to mix science and philosophy. I don’t recall a source that deals with this directly. You can read my columns on what philosophy is. I discuss there its relationship to science.
