Philosophy/Expert Profile

Expertise

Any questions which start with “What”, "Why", and "How", etc. are perfectly fine. Any questions about the world we live in (reality vs. non-reality), subtleties of life, points of view, human behavioral interpretation and why people do/act certain ways, etc. are all good. Any open-ended philosophical and psychological questions are fine, too. I generally (with a few exceptions) will not answer specific questions about different types of philosophy or philosophers in depth. However, I will critique it, if provided with a question about an opinion of a topic.

Experience in the area

I'm able to bring points of view to the table that most people haven't thought of. The main point of any philosophical question is to be able to answer it in a neutral frame of reference, in which logical reasoning, rational thinking, and proof of point, which often are intertwined. However, there are exceptions when logical thinking deceives us, and exterior frames of reference are often needed to discover the basis of such reasoning to find the solution to the question. I juxtapose scientific reasoning with everyday life for a smooth interpretation. Theory is nice, but practicality is preferential.

What do you like about this subject?

In behavioral analysis, philosophy and psychology are intertwined, yet classified individually. Philosophy deals with internal and external reference frames providing vantage points, while psychology provides the content within. There will always be biological components when discussing why people do certain things, and it’s interesting to discover these reasons, rather than just observe.
