True. But aren't they, often, asking the same questions as the analytics, but only taking a riskier approach through foregoing logic? Nietzsche, for example, wrote on the origin of ethics with dubious arguments to back up his claims. Whereas, in Eastern Philosophy, they are, for the most part, not attempting to answer such questions.

<p>Yes, but continental philosophers also attempt to answer such questions; most realize, however, that they reach the same conclusions as analytic philosophers, though by using a more circuitous method (if it can be called a method).</p>
<p>Eastern philosophy can be absurd at times; I remember reading that one method for connecting to the realm between being and not-being (p and ~p) is that of performing auto-fellatio.</p>
