The least philosophical topic

What is the least philosophical topic?

A topic so far from philosophy that nothing philosophical can be done about it?

Sports?

I could guess anything to do with physical needs in the restroom? Hard to have a philosophical discussion about urinating or defecating. :joy:

Is this not philosophy?

Well, I said hard, but evidently it is not impossible.

The least philosophical is still philosophical.

Empirical stuff isn’t bad. How tall is the Eiffel tower? Go measure it. Ok.

What do you mean by ‘measure’? Measurement problem - Wikipedia

Oh, I thought the title of the thread was the least philosophical topic, not the topic that no philosophical or quantum mechanical discussion could somehow be connected to. And you’re right I am sure when people are asking how tall the Eiffel tower is they really want to know about qm and measuring….talk about derailing.

See, an actual good counter to my post would have been a less philosophical topic than the height of the Eiffel tower.

But you derailed the conversation and made the topic a different one. And it’s your own topic.
