>Philosophy, like sciences, are broken down into domain functions.

But Philosophy is not a science, it's a human construct.

>you’ve got your reasoning all kinds of backwards.

It's rather a lack of reasoning. Anything that is claimed as "Moral" always begs the question to what end.

If i 'Can' it is.

You and you're morals of do no harm, act fairly in dealings, etc. etc. end up being counter-morals when reality strikes because the universe doesn't caree about your codee of conduct or your "Rules & morals". Putin certainly doesn't.




Words have meaning my friend. I never called philosophy a science. It’s the font that scientific reasoning sprung from.

The rest of your comment I can’t decipher. I’m not sure why you’re injecting me into this. I’m not a player here.

It may also be worth considering that the quote you used to justify war, was written by a pacifist:
