I quoted:
"When a stupid man is doing something he is ashamed of, he always
declares that it is his duty." -- George Bernard Shaw<<
and added:
"When a smart man is doing something he is ashamed of, he always
declares that it comes from his theory."
or is there a better line?<<
Dan Scanlan responded:
... it's in the interest of science?
C'mon! what we need is _more_ scientific thinking, not less. (Scientific thinking says, among other things, that a lot what science believes may not be true.) There's no reason why we should emulate the Bush League's antagonism toward science that doesn't fit their political and economic goals. -- Jim Devine / "In the Soviet Union, capitalism triumphed over communism. In this country, capitalism triumphed over democracy." -- Fran Lebowitz
