EDIT: Let’s cool it with the downvotes, dudes. We’re not out to cut funding to your black hole detection chamber or revoke the degrees of chiropractors just because a couple of us don’t believe in it, okay? Chill out, participate with the prompt and continue with having a nice day. I’m sure almost everybody has something to add.
This is like the second or third post I have seen in the past week talking about “belief” in science. Science isn’t about belief, it’s about understanding. Maybe this post should be, “What facts are you questioning because you don’t understand the underlying data?”
Seriously. Science just is. I don’t care if you believe it or not. It still is what it is.
Science just is the way gender just is. It’s a metaphysic.
Could you link to the studies saying this?
Do you not know what a metaphysic is? A metaphysic is something that affects the world without actually existing. Information is metaphysics. Law is metaphysics. Gender is definitely metaphysics. Science is too.
Y’all downvoting me because you’re taking offense to a word you can’t bother looking up the definition of. Peak stupidity and tribalism right here. You make up your identity(which is also a metaphysic) based on imagery and social appeal and sling shit just like chimps.
Could it be that people are downvoting you because you’re using words wrong while acting like you are educated on the matter? 😉
You don’t have to take my word for it. Try Google define: metaphysics.
I’m aware of what metaphysics is. I’m also aware that it’s based in philosophy, not science, as you stated.
Everything is based in philosophy. Science is based in philosophy. Click the first blue link in every Wikipedia page that isn’t the pronunciation and you’ll go straight to philosophy after a few pages!
I fuckin love philosophy!
