I was thinking about how philosophy is always considered to be questions of existence and arguments on god and free-will. Really there's significantly more to it than that. Lots of philosophers talk about social issues, like oppression and so forth. Even asking the question "Does true love exist?" is philosophy (although since I'm currently living la vida single I'm using the endocrin response to explain this 'love' thing). Philosophy is not just about the universe, but everything inside that universe, physical, mental, and hypothetical.
Asking God why it is that your cat had to die is the most popular form of philosophy, but there is no limit to what philosophy can be.
