What are the best arguments for or against philosophical idealism?
Pros) Sometimes it is a good way to see things this way, for example, this helps you think about permanent things, and think in concepts rather than being lost in the world. It allows you to think clearer because you can think of a group of things under a certain concept rather than their diversities.
Cons) While this is true, if you go all the way, you cannot see diversities, and are close minded to many things because there is an angle that has no concept. It also blurs what is real and what is simply a man made permanence. You may look at a tree and see its life cycle rather than being able to enjoy the shade in which it gives you.
I think my answers are a little unclear due to a lack of understanding for the topic. sorry about that
