It's true that science is based on evidence. But there are other kinds of evidence than just scientific. Philosophical argument, for example, is based on other kinds of evidence. Philosophical arguments still concern questions of truth and evidence, but in fields outside science.
No, I did. To not be vague about what philosophy does, that is what I'd have to do. You're clearly not going to say anything, It's all red herrings, diversions and vagueness on a topic you chose to (fail to) engage with. Why waste my time? You could have just not responded.

I can't mute you without unfollowing so I'll have to do that. I bear you no ill will tho and you're very welcome to keep following me. I just don't want to waste time on this kind of waffle again. I need to mute a lot now to keep using Twitter or I just get bogged down like this.
Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo

OK, some examples: logic, mathematics. It seems to me that they are forms of knowledge, that they are argued about on the basis of knowledge that is not just scientific evidence, and that they involve questions of truth.

Sorry it should have said: "on the basis of evidence that is not just scientific evidence".

Oh well that's that, I guess.
