My personal touching about cosmology is that studying cosmology in philosophy it

reveals about the nature of the of the study of the universe, its structure, origin,

evolution, and destiny. It is a demonstration of the power of modern science to

transform our understanding of who we are and where we came from. As we all

know in book of Genesis in the bible God created the world, but according to

cosmology theories the creation of the universe was base of the Big Bang theory.

Although both side have their own perspective how the world starts. I do believe that

what matter most is we have to be thankful of what we have and see how beautiful

the world is. When we talk about ontology it is one of the branch of philosophy that

studies the concepts of existence, being, becoming, and reality. Ontology is

traditionally as a part of the major branch of philosophy known as metaphysics. But

in ontology its concerned is about what entities exist where in metaphysics seeks to

explain, of those entities. Studying ontology help us to categorized thing. This

scientific ontology has been so successful in terms of understanding nature and

controlling it that it has come to dominate the way we think about everything,

including, for some people, religion. The process of attaining knowledge is the

primary concern of epistemology. It explains how we can determine the difference

between falsity and truthfulness of things. It addresses problems about the scope,

reliability and extent of our knowledge; including the human thoughts, emotions and

ideas. It tries to understand the significant relationship of mind and reality; and how

our consciousness affects our perception about the reality where we are in. The term

was derived from the Greek word “episteme” which means knowledge and logos, to

study.  It is called the science of human knowledge. It investigates the process,

origin and the validity of the human knowledge. It asks questions like “what makes
things as true or untrue? Knowing epistemology help us to identify what is right of

wrong. Every time I hear the word Ethics, the number one comes to my mind is to do

things in moral. Since, Ethics is a branch of philosophy that studies morality and

evaluates the uprightness of human actions. It assesses the questions, ‘What I ought

to do?’, ‘What makes my judgment good?’ and ‘Is it required for me to do good?’. 

Hence, ethics tries to explain the need or applicability of known moral standards to

the people's daily activities. It deals with the study of the rightness or the wrongness

of the human actions. It asks the question, “What makes a person righteous?”.

Basically, ethics studies values, principles and standards of human actions across

cultures. When humanity has learned to make something that is useful to them, they

begin to plan and dream how to make it beautiful. Then the philosophy of Aesthetic

took place on to this matter. Since the time when human ingenuity had flourished,

humanity began to dream for something that is beneficial, useful and beautiful. They

were responsible for the emergence of questions like ‘What is the function of beauty

to the objects?’. This has brought Aesthetics to the pedestal. It is an attempts to

evaluate whether the concept of beauty is subjective or not. It studies the effective

methods in evaluating the beauty lies on things. Studying the philosophy of aesthetic

help us to vitalize our knowledge. It makes our knowledge of the world alive and

useful. It also helps us live more deeply and richly. As a being of body and soul, a

human being needs nourishment for his/her higher life as well as his/her lower. And

lastly, it brings us in touch with our culture. Since things about as change rapidly

nowadays that we forgot how much we owe to the past. We cannot shut ourselves

off from the past any more than we can shut ourselves off geographically from the

rest of the world. It is hard for us to live to this selfish world but we have to be brave

and make things beautiful so we can survive and be happy to our lives.
