Hey dumbshit, if you are going to criticize someone, make sure you aren't completely wrong when you are doing so.Starmaker wrote:Science != logic. And logic doesn't work the way you think it works (while we're at that: Aristotle knew dick about logic). And you don't know what "empirical demonstration" means.Redshirt wrote:Well, actually my question wasn't about logic--Tussock already shit all over using logic to arrive at truth on the way to his swipe at Aristotle. I want to see an empirical demonstration of what counts as good and what counts as evil. This is of course a fool's project, but shhhhhh, don't tell him the answer to the puzzle, it'll ruin it for him.
1) Redshirt isn't saying that science = logic. He was telling someone that he was talking about Science not logic, something you could only possibly say if you believed that Science != logic.
2) Yes, he really does know what empirical demonstration means. Yes he is using the verb see metaphorically. Get over yourself. The point he is making is obvious even if you could interpret the sentence to mean something else if you want.
