Philosophy in its contemporary understanding requires a good grasp of

various disciplines to explain how this particular field comes into existence.
Sometimes philosophical phenomenon goes beyond metacognition instead of
simply humanizing what needs to be understood in its simplest form.
Philosophy which has been known and defined as love for wisdom since time
in memoriam can now be interpreted as the way of understanding to be
human. The body politic, social institution, community at large, nation and
ethnic background affects the understanding of philosophy in man. Several
aspects like social justice are one of the prominent issues applying
philosophy. This requires making the law works for everyone including the
most wanted malefactor. Social justice refers to humanization of law. It allows
that the application of justice which should meet the needs of the very most
underprivileged member of the society. Their rights are to be protected. And
no one shall be exempted from punitive punishment for committing
infractions of the law. Another application of philosophy as humanizing the
discipline is in promoting economic welfare for everyone. The policies that are
to be determined should be anchored on principle of equity and equality.
Thus, in receiving benefits from the government like social programs, the
marginalized members should have more of it. In this sense, the marginalized
members would have more access to healthcare, discount and even tax
exemptions. Furthermore, a more lenient tax scheme for the lowest income
earner means more income to be devoted for satisfying their basic needs. In
this case, less privileged members would feel more humane and at one with
what is readily available from the nature. The needs and wants will be in
harmony with the resources thus, producing a more decent living leading to
more humane condition.

2. The philosophy that one must be always ahead of himself finds application in
educational settings. The classroom in itself is a solid avenue to see the
worth of this philosophical thought. The concept of being ahead of himself
can be equally and competently applied in the teacher-student environment.
In the context of promoting learning atmosphere, the teacher must always be
ahead of himself in the development of the discipline he is teaching. He must
further be considered advance in his knowledge and understanding relative
to his area of specialization. Essentially, learning is a continuous process, and
then he must always improve his craft before some students can be more
curios and discovers contemporary issues and pedagogy to where learning is
optimize. In the event, those discoveries made by the students before the
teacher knows such development, the credibility and expertise of teacher can
be jeopardize. Therefore, the teacher must always be ahead of himself and to
his students inorder that learning can be strategically implemented and
subjects taught are given justice.
 Philosophy as love for wisdom has been the subject of many formal

and informal disquisitions for so many years. Such philosophical thought finds its

way for better understanding of situations confronting man as rational being.

Philosophy in its strictest sense involves a lot of areas for better

understanding.

The government or the state where body politic is present can be given

primordial considerations as foundation for philosophical appreciation. The analysis

that government exist to protect its people explains why members of the society

depend largely on the State. It has symbiotic relationship and magnified by the

existing laws and jurisprudence to put things in order. The continuous learning aims

at producing a better way of looking things to prevent chaotic environment or social

atmosphere between men. This outweighs preferential and self-serving

understanding against morally correct and accepted principle of sound decision-

making. One of the pressing issues involving deeper understanding on the value of

life is whether or not death penalty should be imposed as punishment for the crime

committed. The wisdom behind such penalty is to deter criminals from committing

crimes or infractions of the law which are highly inhumane. A law authorizing such

punitive punishment already exists however, it is suspended. Despite the fact that

killing can be justified, the moral and religious aspect of its consequence remains to

be debatable. In addition, euthanasia has been around the corner since then as one

of the issues involving reasoning for its application. This pertains to the sanctity of
life against scientific knowledge that men who are in the state of ill-health can be

allowed to expire with the permission of his family or relative and kin provided he is

on life support. Therefore, based on the premise, philosophical thought paved for

deeper examination on the acceptability of death penalty to be applied or not.

Another favorable use of philosophical thought for humanization is

evident on the formulation of sound economic principle necessarily to entice the

dynamic interplay among the micro and macro economy. It can be persuasive to

note that the love for wisdom is material in understanding our needs and wants in

relation to our means and ways of earning for a living. Man as an economic being is

equipped with the desire of unlimited wants and needs. Hence, the philosophy of

knowing what comes first before needs promotes better economic decision-making.

Thus, the need to satisfy ones need before luxury is not only based on economic

principle but also with philosophical views.

Moreover, the instantaneous application of philosophical views is

reflected on religion. Philosophy requires the discovery of truth and knowledge

which was acquired human by reason alone. Many individuals find relentless

criticism and approval with different beliefs, customs and traditions that one has

embodied in the teachings of his religion. A number of people could have

contributed in the dynamism of thought provoking principle in philosophy about

God. Several debates were held and more challenging beliefs were at stake and

openly ridicule by non-believers. Moreover, religion is subject to acceptance and

rejection based on the value system and ones reasoning.
