Abstract
Scientific investigation and common people have discredited metaphysics once again and justify the question author asks for. His solid answer: Metaphysics is not only possible but necessary. Metaphysics is a kind of reflection closely attached to spiritually acted human being meaning. Current Western Culture —mainly positivist— is an irresponsible one: it does not commit us. Metaphysics, instead, bears witness to responsibility and freedom of thought. And, even if it is always conditioned by different historical cultures where it emerges, "some" metaphysics will be always necessary. It would be sterile to dream about a unique metaphysics. However, without a common form of metaphysics, how could several metaphysics have any meaning? Hence, if some of them are necessary, metaphysics (as the only existing one) always has to be a mere possibility.This journal is registered under a Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License.
