In the paper the author considers the problem of solubility of philosophical questions. He tries to substantiate thesis that rational philosophical reflection can allow us to choose between some opposite philosophical hypotheses. In this meaning he accepts philosophy as a positive knowledge. To support this point of view he gives some examples of philosophical theories, which - in his opinion - are prescribed (finitism, apriorism, sensualism and others). He analyses relationship between philosophical knowledge, science and common sense as well.

The author refers to the classic controversy between substantialism, attributivism and relationism in the ontic analysis of time. He is persuaded that the substantialist interpretation of time is erroneous and tries to make his point by citing the methodological postulate of Occam's Razor. On the positive side, he argues that the temporal relationism is the best position in the debate. Finally, he discusses tenses and comments on their ontic status.

The article is an attempt to evaluate an interesting proposal by Michal Heller to define the beginning of the universe (the original particularity). The proposal was presented in the book 'Poczatek jest wszedzie. Nowa hipoteza pochodzenia Wszechswiata' (The Beginning is everywhere; A New hypothesis of the origins of the universe) where it is supported with some tenets in philosophy of mathematics. The author finds these tenets questionable. He disagrees with Heller's conception of the universe, offers critical remarks about the non-temporal or extratemporal phase of the universe and raises certain doubts about possible interpretations of the origins of the universe (focusing mainly on the concept of the original peculiarity). These fairly specific observations culminate in a broader discussion of the role of mathematics in interpretation of ontological problems.

The article discusses ideology and utopian proposals with respect to their tense orientation, ie. orientation toward the past, the present or the future. Comprehensive proposals for a major modification of social arrangements that encompass economy and social change have to distinguish between real life changes and their perception by the actors who introduce them. This distinction is made visible be the difference between purely theoretical ideological dogma and a broader utopian vision. The author claims that although narrowly conceived ideology is a world different from a utopian blueprint this distinction is blurred by their tense orientation. As he says, at the level of social being a strong intermingling of the past and the future is inevitable, and consequently verbal ideology cannot be cleanly separated from practical proposals.
