    • 1883, Richard Doddridge Blackmore, Cripps, the Carrier: A Woodland Tale, page 150:
      Every single fall or rise of nature's work was kind to her, and led her into various veins of inductive unphilosophy.
    • 2023, Frank Ruda, Indifference and Repetition:
      By the production of the semblance of indifference and the unknowingly yet arbitrarily chosen superstitious dependence, the indifference produced by unphilosophy goes precisely in this sense hand in hand with an increase of the dependence on the indifferent external things, which is why these things do not appear (or seem to be) indifferent any longer.
