Yes.
The scientific method," Thomas Henry Huxley once wrote, "is nothing but the normal working of the human mind." That is to say, when the mind is working; that is to say further, when it is engaged in corrrecting its mistakes. Taking this point of view, we may conclude that science is not physics, biology, or chemistry—is not even a "subject"—but a moral imperative drawn from a larger narrative whose purpose is to give perspective, balance, and humility to learning.

Neil Postman
(The End of Education)

Anti-intellectualism has been a constant thread winding its way through our political and cultural life, nurtured by the false notion that democracy means that my ignorance is just as good as your knowledge

Please, lock yourself in a padded room and put a straight jacket on.

I think he has the point by now, oldphilosopher (of course, time is relative, but I speak of the time he reads this).

If you want a real response, I'd suggest talking to a moderator. I'd suggest Bozonan.

People who write below their abilities in order to crank out tons of books and make a buck. Especially Christian authors who do that. Outsiders judge us for it, and make fun of us for it, and it makes Jesus look bad. We of all artists on earth should be the most concerned with doing our best possible work at all times. We of all people should write with all our hearts, as if writing for the Lord and not for men.

I will now fall back on something that I say quite frequently:

NOBODY TELLS ME ANYTHING! WAHHHHHHHHH!

Going on here? Why'd you start a new thread to ask what was going on here?
