Hi,
Are philosophy and Buddhism mutually exclusive? Is there overlap? If so, what value does this have, if any? For example, can informal fallacies and Buddhism make beneficial contributions to each other? Or, are philosophy and Buddhism polar opposites with no overlap? What value does such a separation have? For example, does using informal fallacies to discuss and debate Buddhist truths and ideas corrupt Buddhism?
Or, are there other alternatives or ways of looking at this I'm not seeing right now?

May all beings find the causes of true happiness within.
