===== Introduction =====

  * What is Philosophy?
  * Definition: Working out the best way to think about things
  * Step back and think about the way to think about a topic: physics, medicine, ...
  * A philosophical question can arise in any topic
  * Like a child asking: Why? and why again
  * Howto: Find valid arguments
    * Test, if the premises are valid
    * Test, if the conclusion is valid 
    * Check if the conclusion follows from the premises 
    * Keep the big picture - the vision - what inspires the argument
