Reply to comment by onelittleworld in Schopenhauer and Hegel’s feud was metaphysical: a pessimist who recognised the unchangeable essence of the world and an optimist who saw human history as perpetual growth could never get along. by IAI_Admin

Both don't have to be correct though. It seems like you're trying to have your cake and eat it too.

Both are correct in different ways, and wrong in different ways. Thesis, antithesis... synthesis. Cake got nuthin' ta do with it, bro.

Well, it just makes no sense otherwise. You start off saying that they're both correct. But did somebody say that neither were correct? It seems like you put that forward unprovoked. So, it seems like you're trying to get two opposing sides to agree by simply saying that they're both right.
