I hate philosophy

This semester I am taking one of the most boring subject that I have ever taken, and this is philosophy. There are many reasons for this perceptive.Among those the main reason is that I do not learn any thing from it but always have to listen to those none sense that my philosophy professor told me. Not like science which can help you know more about this world, philosophers often reach for things that have no answer to them. For instance, the first book that I read in this class is " Meno". In this book, two people are inquiring for the definition of virtue. After 100 pages of reading, their discussion ended in the state of puzzlement. Even worse, their conclusion is that the virtue is a gift from god. Are you kicking, this is the answer that I receive after 100 pages of reading. At one point that almost gave me the incentive to burn the book. The next topic of this class is on the idea of skepticism. There is the Sextus who I really want to pouch. They can make the simplest question seems so perplexing. An easy question, such as what is the color of this table, can be so difficult from their mouths.
