No it isn't. You don't know what philosophy means. Hardly
surprising coming from a supporter of theocratic fraud, or a
sworn enemy of truth, like you.

It isn't mathematics either. But thanks for showing you know
fuck about mathematics as well.

Pseudo intellectual charlatan trying to look cool by invoking

No stupid piece of shit. What you are describing is
jew-kristianity.
Philosophy, as it name implies, is the search of
truth/knowledge prompted by a love of truth/knowldege.
A love of knowledge is exactly what apologists of
jew-kristianity lack since their whole 'worldview' is built
around the most stupid lies ever.
