'''An Overview of Philosophy'''
'''[[File:1383210_591839084185628_2143585822_n.jpg|thumb|left]]An Overview of Philosophy'''
 
The purpose of this philosophy article is to create a guide to important philisophical idea spanning time, ideas, and peoples. It is both an introductory and advanced page for persons interested in any of the ideas of philosophy, and while at the moment it may be missing a couple of features, it is up to those fluent in these philosophical books to insert and revise information as the need may arise.

It is both an introductory and advanced page for persons interested in any of the ideas of philosophy, and while at the moment it may be missing a couple of features, it is up to those fluent in these philosophical books to insert and revise information as the need may arise.


Also, a kind anon went off on their own with the same goal as this article and is creating this:
