But it probably falls lightly under burden of proof. There's a quote which I thought was from a friend of mine, but when I asked him, he denies ever saying it, so I'm not sure where it's from: "Philosophy is the history of bad arguments." I just quoted Russel, because he's a bit more of a respected authority on the subject.
