To anyone out there who isn't quite sure...I'm a Biology major and a Chemistry minor. In other words, my life = science. So because of that statement I have the feeling like I have to be categorized as a "naturalist" just because that seems to be the one related mostly to science.
Because of core requirments for this wonderful institution we all attend, I am also taking the Intro to Philosophy class while taking this one...and in the other one the professor had mention how philosophy is the basis for science. Without a thought, there would no science. So does this mean I can technically be a scientist and be considered something like a skeptic?
But either way, I guess I do consider myself a naturalist. I believe there is a method to how everything exists here...to an extent I guess. Which would technically make me not a naturalist because they think that there is a process for everything and that all can be proved via science. But I am not so sure of that point. I guess I'm in the middle on a lot of this...which tends to be a common thread in philosophy: changing ideas and never being fully committed to one way or another.
One thing I am sure of however, these views will change numerous times of the course of my two classes here and I learn more and more about what people think around me...stay tuned =)
