Quotables

'Creation science' has not entered the curriculum for a reason so simple and so basic that we often forget to mention it: because it is false, and because good teachers understand exactly why it is false. What could be more destructive of that most fragile yet most precious commodity in our entire intellectual heritage - good teaching - than a bill forcing honorable teachers to sully their sacred trust by granting equal treatment to a doctrine not only known to be false, but calculated to undermine any general understanding of science as an enterprise?- The Skeptical Enquirer -- Stephen Jay Gould

Chat Box

  • Cado : Five day moment of silence. I figured I would have had to learn how to write and express my thoughts through typing before I was missed on here. It seems my ignorance is worthy after all ;)
  • Msafwan : No silence for you. No silence death without an honor! Kaplah!! (waaargh!)
  • JK713 : Moment of silence anyone?
  • Cado : Now I remember why I left school. There is no heart here. It was fun, wake up, and sorry for any negative emotions you might have felt. Peace!
  • JK713 : philosophy: Investigation of the nature, causes, or principles of reality, knowledge, or values, based on logical reasoning rather than empirical methods
  • Cado : Are there any Stoics here? Are there any who believe in altruism in ethics? Are there any at all who are truly virtuous? It seems so far that everyone talks, and through there words it becomes known that they do not actualy DO philosophy unless they believe doing philosophy is simply thinking logicaly and talking. But what of true philosophical action, what we now call applied philosophy?
  • JK713 : This site is always cyclical in nature. Now that I'm back things will pick up again.
  • funkgunk : 'I think this site has died - at least for the time-being' would seem so
  • Msafwan : No it is not. It is alive, it is alive! ngehahaha!
  • Sam26 : I think this site has died - at least for the time-being
  • Sam26 : No
  • yanshien : Anyone here?
  • yanshien : 有没有使用汉语的人？
  • Szavieur : This chat box reminds me of the dead in the dark world in the last "His Dark Materials" novel.
  • Spar : Anyone here?
  • Szavieur : A lot of 'em've left us. :(
  • Sam26 : I haven't seen Td around - has he left us?
  • Sam26 : You know, you could be right
  • JK713 : Perhaps you had solved it in between your statement, and my asking if you had. It's not my fault you're not very efficient.
  • Sam26 : If I solved it, then it wouldn't be a quandary
  • JK713 : Well have you solved it then?
  • Sam26 : My life is a philosophical quandary
  • JK713 : So.. anyone solve any philosophical quandries lately?
  • Garbangw : «link» «link» «link» «link» «link»
  • Szavieur : Well, I feel at home on Earth (sort of), but I also constantly feel this strange feeling. I do have a theory about the meaning of these emotions but that's for my thread more than this chat box... I don't know how to connect this up with your scientist example, though.
