Fillysophical Friday: Notes on my philosophical perspectives.

I had mentioned in my previous post that these philosophical hypotheses will often be presented in character, so I wanted to clarify some of my terminology, since words such as Epicureanism and Hegelianism won't mean much in Equestria. Subsequently, I will say a little bit about my personal philosophical perspective, as well as Mysty's. Once again, these will be dissimilar only insofar as the context of life in the two societies will influence them. Hopefully this information will be useful in placing my hypotheses into proper contexts.

Regarding terminology (to be updated as necessary). I will provide a simple glossary

Numerical Metaphysics = Pythagoreanism
Systematic Hedonism = Epicureanism
(Neo-)Proto-Idealism = (Neo-) Platonism
(Neo-)Proto-Nominalism = (Neo-) Aristotelianism
MetaIdealism = Thomism
Contingent Survivalism = Macchievellianism
Cognitive Rationalism = Cartesianism
Systematic Idealism = Hegelianism
Humanistic Nihilism = Nietzschism

Regarding my own philosophical system, I will try to expound in later posts. At its foundation the system I am using to analyze existing philosophy and postulate new ideas is based on asking questions generate problematic answers and create new questions. I believe that question is the key of philosophy, not answer, and a continual motivation. I am interested not only in synthesizing spirituality and phenomenal reality, but in doing so seeking new ways to conceive questions, as I believe it is possible insofar that there is nothing beyond this journey to disprove the possibility. As such I am an Existentialist. No absolute equals endless possibility and that is the potential of ponykind.
