'''Philosophy''' is [[ancient Greek]] for the love of wisdom. However, all cultures — be they [[prehistoric]], [[ancient]], [[mediæval]], or [[Modernism|modern]]; [[Eastern hemisphere|Eastern]], [[Western hemisphere|Western]], [[religious]] or [[secular]] — have had their own unique schools of philosophy, arrived at through both inheritance and through independent discovery. Such theories have grown from different [[premise|premises]] and approaches, examples of which include (but are not limited to) [[rationalism]] (theories arrived at through [[logic]]), [[empiricism]] (theories arrived at through observation), and even through [[leap of faith|leaps of faith]], hope and inheritance (such as the [[supernatural|supernaturalist]] philosophies and [[religion|religions]]).
