Which is the more pure subject, Math or Philosophy?
-
'Pure' is an entirely subjective concept that is merely an abstract representation of one's specific feelings towards any given phenomenon. Reality objects nothing as 'pure'. Such is, pardon the pun, purely artificial. /philosophy

Philosophy. Math gives us the workings of life and its mechanics, but philosophy gives us the questions of human actions and emotion. If we didn't answer the questions we have on the actions and emotions we exert in our lives, most mathematics wouldn't have ever been made. Math was a result of our questions in life, so wouldn't the question that brought mathematics into existence be more pure? I think yes.
-
They can both be equally 'pure', and they can both be applied, although maths is usually much more formal. You could really consider pure mathematics to simply be a form of philosophy, and, indeed, there are a lot of philosophy students who also study pure maths.

2 回复I don't know for certain, but I would say math, because some parts of math lack any useful application to the real world whatsoever, as far as I know.
