Yeahbut... See Benjamin Hale's essay in the NY Times.
Yes, none of us really know reality and we all construct models based on various levels of myths. But it's the kinds of myths and how they're constructed and tested that is where the main difference lies, I think.
See Benjamin Hale's essay in the NY Times for a much better example of what I was trying to get at. http://iwt.mikevital....iwt?postid=64858 Thanks. Cheers, Scott. |
