"All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike - and yet it is the most precious thing we have."Albert Einstein.
Quote"All our science, measured against reality, is primitive and childlike - and yet it is the most precious thing we have."Albert Einstein.and Einstein was a myth makerand sciences reality is just a mythical construction just like any so called primitive cultures reality
One has to understand myth to mean not entirely true and then conclude with it meaning not at all true.It is a cheap and flaccid contortion. It is a nothing argument, because in reality it is not an argument at all. It is word trickery, dull minded sophistry dressed up as philosophical thought.
Except science is re-assessed as a part of the very culture and nature of science
Oh, and in what way was Einstein a myth maker? read his words that I posted here. He does not claim to understand the universe, he does not claim that science does. Others make the myths, and then others seek to 'debunk' what was never intended
I would suggest, as a counter to this drivel, that you read 'The Demon Haunted World' by Carl Sagan.I suggest 'Science, Order and Creativity' by Dr David Bohm.
What do you mean? Are you suggesting that there is no truth in Newton's laws? That would be strange claim to make considering that they are still used, within a context, and still, within those contexts, keep foretelling truthfully.You still haven't answered, what is it that you propose as an alternative to gaining insight into the nature of our universe? I have a feeling I know the answer already, but surprise me, please...
that science is not a myth.
