WHY PHILOSOPHY NOT SCIENCE?

Yes, well, the way I look at it, is that the job of philosophers is to integrate the findings of science into our system of -collection of- general rules, by which we agree upon a useful, beneficial, normative perception of the world we live in, and how we should act in it.

So, I do understand that science, not philosophy, is the source of current knowledge.

But we must understand what to value, and devalue and consider foul, and what to encode encode in law, not encode in law. Because while we may desire our preferences, the law describes the boundary beyond which our preferences may not pass.
