A s Socrates observed, the unexamined life is not worth living.
Philosophy examines every aspect of life and the world with the desire to discover truth.
You will find it deeply rewarding and exhilarating to discover truth, value, goodness, and beauty and their application to your own life. If your vocation involves teaching, writing, analyzing, or explaining, your work will be greatly enhanced by philosophical training. Philosophy provides a foundation for thinking critically and clearly, as well as an ethical framework for addressing moral issues in professional work. Your faith will mature as you penetrate the philosophical foundations of what you believe. You will also be able to articulate and explain your faith more clearly.
