    We agree. All of these sources of their philosophies were solely themselves. You seem to be trying to show a disagreement using a semantics fallacy.

    False authority fallacy. Philosophy is not a book.

    Epistemologists study the nature of knowledge, epistemic justification, the rationality of belief, and various related issues. Epistemology is considered one of the four main branches of philosophy,

    Science is just a set of falsifiable theories. It is not knowledge. It doesn't have to be justified. It doesn't have a 'belief'. It has no 'issues'. It is just a set of falsifiable theories.

    Science is not a 'foundation'. It is not a 'method' or 'procedure'. There is no 'philosophy of science'. The philosophical arguments discussing the implication of science is just philosophy.

    Philosophy of Religion is rational thought about religious issues and concerns without a presumption of the existence of a deity or reliance on acts of faith.

    All arguments free of fallacies are rational. All religions are based on some initial circular argument, with arguments extending from that. The other name for the circular argument is 'faith'. It is not, in and of itself, a fallacy. Attempting to prove a circular argument, however, IS a fallacy.

    Ontology, teleology, cosmology, phenomenology, rationalism, historicism, ethics, aesthetics
    Some of these are philosophy, others are not.

    He never once made an argument. And insists others must make an argument. The Trump era: Say stuff and pretend it's self evidently true.

    Yeah. He kept spouting fallacies instead of really discussing.
