Is philosophy relevant to actions?
I love a nice long philosophical thread as much as the next guy.
However, I've often wondered about the interaction between philosophical ideas and real world actions.
For a while I took the position that there is no interaction. Needless to say, I got refuted. Clearly there can be interaction, and sometimes very important real world consequences occur as a result of philosophy.
However, how common is this in the judgment of this forum's readers? I tend to think it is minimal, but I'm basing that off of my personal experience. It would be useful to know what others think.
