Considering Metaphysics has many ambiguous definitions I will use the definition: Inquiry of the nature of existence through non-empirical means.

So the question I pose is "What is the value of Metaphysics?"

Metaphysical statements are non-verifiable making their truth/falsehood indeterminable by empirical means and experience.

However metaphysical statements claim to be of a "higher knowledge" than empirical science as if the posseser of metaphysical knowledge has a superior glimpse at the nature of reality (through abstract non-empirical means) than someone who has knowledge of reality through experience.

My argument is that metaphysical statements have no basis in reality since they are not derived through experience and cannot be determined to be either true or false, rendering them meaningless.

I would be very interested in hearing everyone's opinion.
