IS THERE A BIGGEST PROBLEM IN PHILOSOPHY? SOME REFLECTIONS ON SETTING PRIORITIES

Philosophers and others with inquisitive minds have busied their brains for millennia with questions such as: ‘Does god exist? What is the meaning of life? Are we free or determined? What is truth?

What did Kant mean by the categorical imperative?’ Are all these topics equally (un)important or is there a ranking of philosophical problems?
