Pseudoscience Basics
|
"Science" isn't so much a thing as a way of thinking. "Pseudoscience" is when people, through ignorance or malice, use a thought process that looks like science, but doesn't have the same rigor. This quiz tells the story of how you make that mistake.

SOPHISTication
|
Throughout history, the philosopher has been both reviled and celebrated, rejected and cherished. In an homage to the love/hate relationship we have with our "lovers of wisdom," here is my very small contribution to a few of those big thinkers.

Critique of Pure Reason
|
Immmanuel Kant is perhaps the most important philosopher since Plato. His ideas of the process of thought and cognition truly did begin a "Copernican revolution", which is to be still filtered down us today. Please filter along...

Basic Heidegger...

...if there is such a thing. Nota bene: the German word Dasein is literally "Being-there". It is our way of being—always already thrown into the world. All passages from "Being and Time" are translated by Macquarrie and Robinson.
