@theKockunge ...or not "misconception "...but dismissal.

@TheGodlessGuitarist yeah but isnt ike...."well chomsky a smart dude i guess, we dont care what he really talks about, lets just do some parody on being smart." or like he reads books and stuff so ....eh....lets make fun of that. its like theres geeks, which are to all the same....and theres normal people. Juat put some long sentences in there.....its a perfect exemple of the standard boring misconception about intelelctualism.

@Dalambam As I'm sure you know, modern sciences developed from the philosophical traditions, loosely termed natural philosophy. You state the point very well.
-
hahahahahaha!!!
-
@TheGodlessGuitarist Yes he's a straight talker but he also wrote technical books that are complete jargon to the untrained eye lol
-
@degas5000 That doesnt really wash I'm afraid. Chomsky is and has always been a straight talker, he avoids the obscurity of arcane jargon as much as possible.
-
@TheGodlessGuitarist He taught philosophy (w/ all that technical stuff) and linguistics.. then you have his political work on top of that.

I think the point is people should be more concerned with questions of truth, logic, ethics, morality, reason, politics, etc., than they are with sports and what normally takes place on these kind of shows.
Chomsky himself has noted that people are basically smart even in their ability to recall all kinds of obscure facts say about football statistics. Our 'challenge' is to make politics interesting to people as well, since it affects their lives in a meainingful way.

@yviva
Philosophy is all about using rational inquiry to understand how the world works... Science itself is based on philosophy. (I mean, before you can have science, you need to lay the basis for it by defining what truth, objectivity are, and whether they can actually be reached, etc etc, which are basic philosophical questions)
