I don't really have any argument with this, except possibly quibbles about the nuances of the difference between "empirical" and "empiricism" -- and I don't really care about those! On Friday 30 May 2008 05:04:58 am, Tudor Boloni wrote: > The key point was lost, here is a clearer way of saying i

The key point was lost, here is a clearer way of saying it. Kepler's experience (his empirical work and experimentation with all his equipment) IS NOT what helped him DISCOVER properties of gravity (equal times for equal areas) (we can agree no one Invented it, though Newton generalized Kepler's i

Huh? Kepler was the guy who theorized that the planets lived on spheres whose sizes were determined by nesting of the Platonic solids. Later, finding that the orbits didn't fit the spheres, he finally struck on the idea that the orbits were ellipses. He believed that the motion of the planets w

Josh, IF we remove the empiricism bias in "future sensory histories" (think Kepler and the approach he took to discover gravity, such as: what can explain observed patterns, knowing our mind is always BLINDED by the senses (similar to zen teachings), he had to negate the tendency to build a hypothe
