PHILOSOPHY This could end in no other way

Ancient China, India, Greece, Islam, Liberalism The questions which philosophy confronts at different times in history PHILOSOPHY change, and with the IN CULTURE, change in questions, the CULTURE IN change in answers. PHILOSOPHY The technology of human knowing is another place where modifications of philosophical perspective come from.
The role of philosophy and the questions it is
assigned to answer have gotten more and more defined giving up areas of knowing that are now properly in the province of empirical science. 1. CULTURE IS A DISTINCTLY RATIONAL MANIFESTATION. 2. RATIONALITY WHICH MATCHES ENDS AND MEANS MAY BE VITAL OR REFLEXIVE. 3. RATIONALITY MANIFESTS ITSELF IN WAYS OF ORGANIZING AND TECHNIQUES OF DOING SOMETHING. 4. THE SUM OF ORGANIZATION AND TECHNOLOGY IS CULTURE-AS- EXPRESSION. 5. THE IMPLIED ORIGIN OF CULTURE-AS-EXPRESSION IS CULTURE- AS-BEING. 6. CULTURE IS, THEREFORE, BOTH OBJECTIVE AND SUBJECTIVE.

B. SPEAK OF LOCAL CONTRIBUTION TO PHILOSOPHY, AND PHILOSOPHY PHILOSOPHICALLY CRITIQUE LOCAL CULTURE. Philosophizing begins not with episteme, but with a decision concerning value – concerning ourselves. For if we decided we had no value at all, there would be no point in going any further.
In this authentic living in
community in the midst of a world we did not choose but were thrown into, we will need all the dynamism of Being and the consolation of philosophy in culture and culture in philosophy. Dr. Florentino H. Hornedo (1938-2015)
