What is philosophy, and what isn't!?

What's the purpose of doing it!?

People often say, "Why bother even studying philosophy, since it's a bunch of different people's different opinions!.!.!. Which is nonsense!." What am I supposed to say to that!?
Maybe I say, "It gives me different ways to think about things and process things instead of just a one-sided view!."

In what areas of life would I find informal fallacies being utilized every day and what are some examples of these, and examples from history!.

Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
When someone says philosophy is just a bunch of random opinions say "you mean like yours!?" So if he or she wants you to NOT ignore them then they should not disparage OPINIONS such as theirs!. (Then you tell them THAT is logic, one of the opinions of philosophy!.)

Philosophy is useless to those who do not study philosophy!. Same thing with arithmetic!.
