In the real world, an argument is often a conflict between two or more people’s opinions. Unlike real world scenarios, where a conflict turns into a shouting, derogatory disagreement which often involves violence, a philosophical argument is based on reason, logic and presumed truths. For a philosopher, an argument is an inference from a starting point and preludes to a logical premise eventually pertaining to a logical truth. A philosopher need not shout or use violence against another in a heated philosophical argument, for the entire ideology of an argument is not inflate ones ego but is to increase human knowledge, and if anything other were sought, the philosopher surely wouldn’t be philosophising but fuelling his own significance and desires.
