Very few similarities.
The word philopsy means “The pursuit of wisdom”
The Ancient Greek Philosophers goal was to find ways for the individual to led productive fulfilling lives, and creating a society that was just and encouraged the individual to be good.
They were more like today”s sociologists and psychologists.
I don”t know what a “Post-Modern” University Philosopher does today, except write long papers that are intentionally unreadable by the general public, tell people that morality is subjective, and feel very clever.

philosophers are philosophers, they often march to the beat of a different drummer, it is a way of thinking

Amazed, appreciation for these details. Great to learn men and women are now being beneficial and speaking about around using this method. I wish to find a lot more in this way in the near future.
