That is not true at all. Much philosophy throughout history has been shown to be incorrect by later science, for example.

- claudiawerner 6y agoExactly; I can't see how someone can say you can't refute philosophy, as though it's not based on argumentation and premises that lead to a conclusion. When you demonstrate that a premise is wrong (e.g. philosophically, mathematically, empirically, etc.) then the philosophy (or rather, that argument for the philosophy) is 'refuted'.
