Right. Which again is the product of my interaction with my surroundings and my genetic inheritance, no matter how you twist or turn it. Which philosopher should we choose? Plato? Aristotle? Augustine? Kant? Hume? Or perhaps some more recent philosopher? Russell? Kuhn? Goedel?

And I know a scientific dogma when I see it.
LOL. What did I write that was scientific dogma? There was hardly anything in my post to qualify as either scientific nor dogma. Nice try, though. Playing ping-pong is something we're good at here at Hypography.

Your crusade against theoretical physics is not a scientific project, but a religious attempt at getting rid of unwanted ideas. I don't understand why you choose to publish such ideas at a scientific forum. And I also fail to see why you posted it in the "Philosophy of Science" as you are so opposed to the workings of science. Why not a frontal attack in the Physics forum?

Hypography?

Hypography [n.]: A combination of "hyperlink" and "bibliography" - ie, a list of links to electronic documents. Comparable to discography and bibliography, but not cartography.

We have been online since May 2000, and aim to be the best place to find and share science-related content of all kinds.

Share the love!
