What is the relation of education to philosophy?
I'm not sure precisely what the question is asking, so I will do my best to answer it as it stands.It is natural for education to be considered a requirement for philosophers. After all, philo- means "love of or friend of" and -sophia means "wisdom". I like to think of philosophy as meaning befriending wisdom -- as if one cherishes wisdom like he or she does a close friend. This captures the process involved with becoming wise and learning about the nature of things in a way that goes beyond science and other areas of study. However, everyone is a philosopher in one way or another. If do or don't believe in religion, that is your philosophy. If you believe that the world is a certain way, that is a philosophy. The best way to build a philosophy is by asking questions. The answers aren't necessarily what are important; rather, if one is able to think on a higher level by asking different questions, he or she has already achieved what is intended.That being said, there is, of course, a method to academic philosophy. For instance, there are applications such as bio-ethics, mathematical logic, and Philosophy of Psychology. These likely do require education, but one can learn about them using books and the like, regardless.
How does Kant's philosophy apply to the moral dilemma of lying to a murderer at the door?
Kant's philosophy, known as deontology, emphasizes the importance of moral principles and duty. In the case of lying to a murderer at the door, Kant would argue that it is not morally permissible to lie, even if it saves a life. This is because lying goes against the universal moral principle of truthfulness, which Kant believed should always be upheld, regardless of the consequences.
Why is philosophy science of all science?
The philosophy of science is concerned with the assumptions, foundations, methods and implications of science. It is also concerned with the use and merit of science and sometimes overlaps metaphysics and epistemology by exploring whether scientific results are actually a study of truth. In addition to these central problems of science as a whole, many philosophers of science also consider problems that apply to particular sciences (e.g. philosophy of biology or philosophy of physics). Some philosophers of science also use contemporary results in science to reach conclusions about philosophy. Philosophy of science has historically been met with mixed response from the scientific community. Though scientists often contribute to the field, many prominent scientists have felt that the practical effect on their work is limited; a popular quote attributed to physicist Richard Feynman goes, "Philosophy of science is about as useful to scientists as ornithology is to birds." In response, some philosophers (e.g. Jonathan Schaffer) have pointed out that it is likely that ornithological knowledge would be of great benefit to birds, were it possible for them to possess it. :D xx
How does philosophy evolve?
Philosophy naturally progresses through thinkers and movements.For instance, in Ancient Greek philosophy, the ideas of Socrates were portrayed through the writings of Plato, but we are unable to know how much of his dialogues were his philosophy or the philosophy of Socrates. Soon after Plato, his student, Aristotle, succeeded him and had very different philosophies. He was more scientific in nature (often called the first biologist) as he approached philosophy in a methodical way. Plato's ethics involved a moderate amount of "virtue ethics", and Aristotle built from this and really ran with the idea of "virtue ethics" (especially in his Nicomachean Ethics).Another example of natural progression is found in British Empiricism. The first main philosopher that is noted as an empiricist is John Locke. He founded his philosophy on claiming that empirical (experiential) sensation is that which is prevalent in reality -- contrasting continental rationalism (Descartes, "I think therefore I am," [thought requires an agent, so he knows there is an agent because he can think]). David Hume, a skeptical British empiricist, ran with this to the extreme. He claimed that we cannot know reality, but the closest thing we can get to knowing reality is through experience. As you can see, this is quite a dramatic shift from Locke. Yet, Hume's ideas simply progressed from Locke's.Thus, as time goes on, ideas and philosophers build upon each others' philosophies.
Who are the scholars who founded epistemology philosophy?
Epistemological philosophy has gone in hand with all Philosophy throughout history. A group of philosophers called the Pre-Socratics our are earliest known philosophical thinkers, and epistemology goes hand in hand with ontology and metaphysics throughout their writings. The first real push toward Epistemological study in its own right can be associated with the skeptics like Phyrro, and with Plato and the sophists, all of these groups coming to widely different conclusions. Again epistemology is closely linked to metaphysics throughout these thinkers. In all truth, it is impossible to identify one scholar as a founder of epistemological thought.

What do you do if your holiday price goes down after being paid for?
You will most likely not be able to get the price difference if your holiday goes down after it is already paid for. You need to make sure you are getting the best price before you ever pay for the holiday in the first place.
