Metaphysics

Metaphysics is a broad category of philosophy that covers many specific ideas we may think of (theology, free will/determinism, etc.). It studies all that we cannot see. Metaphysics is a confusing thing to wrap one’s head around and while this confusion would usually bring my overall Thing rating down I believe this remains a perfect Thing as the confusion is combatted by the broadness of the field. While the ‘skill ceiling’ for this field is infinite, the skill floor is also zero, provided one can form rational thought. It could also be very reasonably argued that the skill floor and ceiling do not exist at all for this field of study — which I personally find a profound beauty in. While it’s usefulness in of itself can be debated, I believe the use it provides for fields related to it (namely psychology, sociology, etc.) make that ‘flaw’ irrelevant.

Abolish.
