The Sublime & Beautiful vs. Reality

This blog is a record of one man's struggle to search for scientific, philosophical, and religious truth in the face of the limitations imposed on him by economics, psychology, and social conditioning; it is the philosophical outworking of everyday life in contrast to ideals and how it could have been.


-
The chief aim of all investigations of the external world should be to discover the rational order and harmony which has been imposed on it by God
and which He revealed to us in the language of mathematics.
--Johannes Kepler

Natural Philosophy & Social Philosophy

From Mark Horne's blog I have this disturbing news:

End of open inquiry in science. Even if you find evidence for a different mechanism (I happen to think that the sunspot cycle has more to do with global temperatures) for global warming and cooling, you will be treasonous because you won't fit the politically correct view. It kind of reminds me of when the church erroneously jumped all over Galileo for daring to advance a different scientific view. Now we have the secular church trying to determine science rather than experimental evidence.

more head shakes


The doom of mankind is to forget the lessons of history.
