It is far easier to learn science first and philosophy later

Summary

This quote suggests that it is more beneficial to learn and understand science before delving into philosophy. Science provides a structured framework of knowledge, methods, and empirical evidence, which can help individuals grasp the fundamental principles of how the world works. This foundational understanding can then serve as a solid base for exploring the complex questions and abstract concepts encompassed in philosophy. By approaching learning in this order, individuals may find it easier to comprehend the philosophical ideas that emerge from scientific discoveries, ensuring a more informed and interconnected perspective.
