-- philosophy, or sophology? That is, the love of wisdom -- versus -- the study of others' wisdom (which does not ensure the absorption, synthesis, or development of any wisdom -- whatsoever). By all the dirty, whorish gods, don't get lost in sophology (http://sophology.org...gods-be-damned, I should publish this meaningless shit before the masses lay their filthy hands upon it).
