Daniel Dennett - Harvard Distinguished Lecture Series - P1

[OccamsKatana]

@autumntree2011 - do you also have a good reason for being opposed to race mixing? -

its interesting you said you are not a "fan" of hitler or the KKK

clearly you realize that being against race mixing falls in line with their ideas. Do you have better reasons than they did? Or are you just as insane as them?

[OccamsKatana]

@lightandbeautiful - and what are these objective "important qualitative" differences ?

I dont even think you can list a single one of these supposed differences within the parameters you suggest. - and im assuming you have objective reasons because subjective ones are not relevant.

Excuse me but do you even have the slightest clue about what you are saying exists? If so why not go claim your nobel prize.

That "uhm" was infuriating. Get off stage and let him start already.

Newton not a philosopher? Chair of Natural Philosophy at Cambridge

[Alexdurrant7]

@davdevalle Science was called natural philosophy when Newton was alive - the word science wasn't yet in circulation.

[davdevalle]

@Alexdurrant7 'circulation? Lets not get into that game, scientia was in English circles. Nam et ipsa scientia potestas est : And thus knowledge itself is power (Sir Francis Bacon). Whewell used term Science. Newton was doing more than 'modern science'. Newton was a philosopher as well as a 'scientist' haha, how can he be something that didn't exist. He did 'theology'; alchemy, maths...and other sciences. Dennett's distinction is parochial and misleading

[icarus313]

...

...

BLAH BLAH BLAH BLURRRRRRR

[ashburnhouse]

[hsktoadftw]

[JiangZiyaTabooDays]

Whoa, Louis CK lost a lot of weight and confidence.

[somor98]

Introduced by...uhmm...the uhm-guy. 

[rags847]

@somor98 the uhm guy and the alleged liar, to boot. That is what existed in those uhm spaces: the cover-up.

[MikeDrewYT]

MU3ral - He might be there, but he'd be horrified to be on that shelf without Darwin being there first!

[MultiUniv3rsal]

When the dust of the modern era settles, Dennett's bust will be on shelves right next to Plato and Aristotle, Kant and Russell, Descarte and Spinoza. Of this I have no doubts.

[Scofield0085]

@MultiUniv3rsal Indeed!

[JosephKnight93]

@MultiUniv3rsal ehhhh, no.
