Nihilist seems like it fits best, but I still don't think it's 100% accurate for me. Maybe stoic? Apathetic? Specifically, I feel like I'm here for the entertainment, as an observer instead of an active participant.

I've been looking at Philosophy of Mathematics and I find that Mathematical Realism suits me nicely.
It may be that it follows PoM, but so be it. In Logics, I'm a Logical Realist. Remark: These positions are the initial ones and I don't have any comprehensive knowledge of these two fields. This may make these choices seem irrational, but I've made an attempt to solve the Problem of Induction and this attempt propels me into these positions. The "Solution" is here: http://forums.philosophyforums.com...ew-on-induction-36894.html.

Edit: I've been thinking some of "Moral Realism". Is it possible that morality is expressed in physics? That morality has an inner foundation in physical realities. I'm just wondering about and it may seem stupid to a lot of people. If there is a physical foundation for morality, I'm just speculating here, then I'm a Moral Realist, whatever it means in the literature.

Hey, you new people! What are your philosophical positions? smiling face
