DEFINING PHILOSOPHY SHELVES

Defining philosophy is never ending. Religion began in Egypt about 7,000 years ago along the Nile and in Mesopotamia. About 3,000 to 2,500 years ago religion had spread throughout the Mid East and into Greece. The Greeks began to understand religious myth as false and of the imagination not of the real world. Some Greeks became more concered with nature and began to investigate to discover the laws of nature the means by which we guarantee survival on earth. and they later became known as 'philosophers.' The theist taught that god will provide and the philosopher said man must learn about the real world to exist.
