  • I thoroughly enjoy philosophy and it was central to my degree in political science, but you have crazy mouth.

    Please feel free to launch a vehicle outside of our solar system and tell me that Philosophy has a better understanding of the physical universe than NASA.

  • Both Newtonian and Einstein’s physics suggest a boulder pushed off a cliff will fall, as far as I know. The observable data is more intrinsically valuable than the theories using them.

    Fallibility isn’t something science shies away from. There’s nothing more exciting in the scientific community than when science is wrong about something.

    Philosophers grandiosely proclaiming that nothing is knowable is fine, but it’s not what put a man on the moon.

  • “All observed swans are white” is not incompatible with the unobserved existence of a black swan.

    Of course we aren’t omniscient and there’s a possibility of an anti-gravity anomaly stopping the boulder, but not standing under them is still the most rational response to the data we do have.

  • For these kind of pedantic complaints about the scientific method, I just propose an experiment where I push a boulder off a cliff they’re standing under and see what they think about repeatable, demonstrable evidence.
