“There is no "scientific worldview" just as there is no uniform enterprise "science" - except in the minds of metaphysicians, school masters, and scientists blinded by the achievements of their own particular niche... There is no objective principle that could direct us away from the supermarket "religion" or the supermarket "art" toward the more modern, and much more expensive supermarket "science." Besides, the search for such guidance would be in conflict with the idea of individual responsibility which allegedly is an important ingredient of a "rational" or scientific age.” MindArtImportantIdeasWould BeAgeSchoolIndividualResponsibilityPrinciplesModernParticularMastersConflictAchievementDirectScientistObjectivesRationalGuidanceExpensiveEnterpriseIngredientsUniformsWorldviewNicheBlindedSupermarketsIndividual Responsibility Author:Paul Feyerabend
“There's a lot of people that I disagree with that I think I could have interesting conversations with. What I don't want to get into is manufactured conflict. I would much rather talk to someone like Dr. Rhonda Patrick or Randall Carlson and be mesmerized by information. I guess in a way that's selfish, or maybe not objective of me. The older (and hopefully wiser) I get the less interested I am in conflict. I don't mind disagreeing with people in a civil way, but I definitely don't want to go out of my way to have an argument unless it's a really important subject.” PeopleThinkingWayWantMindImportantInterestingSubjectsInformationConversationConflictArgumentSelfishObjectivesHopefullyMy WayDisagreeWiserDrsMesmerizedInteresting ConversationCarlson Author:Joe Rogan

“We have sacrificed and we have endured extreme hardship, but we have maintained the key goal - we have denied the enemy its main objective of creating two political geographies in this country through the all-out war which has been unleashed against us.
