Well that is closer to what I meant. Notice that I said "a problem" and not "all problems". Other replies pointed out, yeah, some problems graduate from Philosophy to Science (or something--that's their view). But in my view, some problems graduate from confusing and fuzzy terminology and muddled thinking of philosophy into organization, empiricism, and usually, progress.

Are all philosophical questions resolvable by Science? I think no. But there are so many questions that I feel are poorly informed by a cloistered set of Philosophical priests who speak another language they made up. Frankly, I don't feel bad when they are "galled" that a scientist takes a new look at a problem they've made no progress on.
