Abstract

Epistemology Ethics Metametaphysics Metaontology Metaphysics Nature of metaphysics Philosophy Philosophy of Language Philosophy of Mind Philosophy, general
I argue for the claim in the title. Along the way, I also address an independently interesting question: what is metaphysics, anyway? I think that the typical characterizations of metaphysics are inadequate, that a better one is available, and that the better one helps explain why metaphysics is no more problematic than the rest of philosophy.
