    Science vs Philosophy? Which way is better to find the truth?

    Philosophy makes us think with our brain. Makes us think out of the box. But science gives us a limit. A tangible barrier. A tangible result for almost everything.
    But does everything have an answer? Does everything has a scientific explanation? Can everything be included inside a test tube?
    Or is Philosophy the right way to analyze things?
    Which one is your choice?

    For some problems, the scientific method is enough to find a solution, Some need philosophy and some need both science and philosophy so I would say it all depends on the problem we are dealing with.
    You're not going to master the rest of your life in one day. Don't stress. Master the day. Make this a daily reminder.

    Philosophy finds the answer by logical argumentation, but science does it with empirical data. Some philosophies are proved scientifically, but most remain clueless. So I will go with science.
    Let's be the change

    Not both. Common sense is the third option in your question which will take both science and philosophy in it whenever needed. Like centralism of Kamalhassan 😂😂

    In a nut shell, would you accept everything has an answer or would you say some things can't be explained at all?

    You are good in diplomatic answers. What I'm looking for is a cutting-edge one. Not only the beginning of the universe, but there're also a whole lot of things yet to be arrived at a conclusion by science. Still looking for an answer.

    Both should be in a balance, not all the time Sciences proves right, neither Philosophy does. I go with my instincts all the time, it's a mixture of Philosophy, Science and specially an Assassin content.
