I'm sorry I must be mistaken ... Ain't you MrPresident as in Bros. Jona himself.

AllNaijaBlogger:



Your argument is illogical. This world is a material world. Both science and religion acknowledge that. Your thoughts and emotions are very material as they depend on the environment, hormones and your brain.

You cant just make up a premise and throw it in an argument. Who told you that the immaterial rules the material?

Pdizzle:
I'm a poet myself, laykorn you underrated science.

Reyginus:
No, I want you to go on. I want to understand your reason.

Many people called me silly. Hehehehe. It's all good.

First, I'd like everyone to know that my original words were 'poetry could' not 'poetry is'. A moderator changed it, maybe to attract traffic.

Two, almost everyone on this thread didn't read my post before commenting. In my original post, I didn't even mention the word 'science'.

Three, my original topic name was more to attract the scientists to read, than what I believe myself. if they don't see 'science', they won't click to read. I also expected them to be mature enough to read my post before replying. How wrong was I

Four, if God told me to choose which one I would rather not have for a few days between my poetic sense and my sense of 'science', I'd choose to let him withdraw my poetic sense.

Five, I am an aspiring engineer.

Six, my words, my opinion. If you feel offended, that's your opinion.

Seven, poetry is life.

He didn't say "as" important. He said "more" important.

I agree with Joseph1833. There needs to be balance in all things.

@Brandnew2...This is not nice...pls apologize

@Texanomaly...It is common knowledge that POETS don't live their POEMS. I for one can write a sizzling love poem, sitting lone and grumpy in my room That Hitler writes, only points to a certain level of intelligence which manifested in horrible dimensions.

BTW Laykorn, I don't know what the tussle is all about, saying poetry is more important than Science is like saying the mouth is more important than the nose. I am a Physicist who loves and know Physics and Mathematics yet Poetry comes naturally to me. I did not learn poetry or how to write them; I just write. IMO, no subject is more important than the other. They are parts of a whole.

Good morning Guys

Why Poetry Is Important, And Could Be More Important Than Science

Lordmykel:
anyway nice thread and needle but we both know its a lie.

i saw "is" i didn't see "could"

dont call me slowpoke again o.. Next time i'll cane you.

you are Ayamlaykorn sorry i mean you are Laykorn

joseph1832:
Joseph1833 Come on Tex!!!

standd:



What is the ruse..
..poetry trumps science

One will give you the means to life,
and the other wings to fly.

Why walk when you can fly..
or spend your days like an Android
when poems can win you love.

Lmao @Twinkle Twinkle little star
I could write you a poem that will make you empty your account for me.

texanomaly:
The Mother

“When your mother has grown older,
When her dear, faithful eyes
no longer see life as they once did,
When her feet, grown tired,
No longer want to carry her as she walks -

Then lend her your arm in support,
Escort her with happy pleasure.
The hour will come when, weeping, you
Must accompany her on her final walk.

And if she asks you something,
Then give her an answer.
And if she asks again, then speak!
And if she asks yet again, respond to her,
Not impatiently, but with gentle calm.

And if she cannot understand you properly
Explain all to her happily.
The hour will come, the bitter hour,
When her mouth asks for nothing more.”

Adolf Hitler, 1923

Reyginus:
I think is the other way round, my friend. The world is material in the sense that it is a physically reality. Science can never tell you that thoughts are material. It is unfounded to assume so. I am willing to go toe to toe with any scientist or philosopher who thinks otherwise.

Material things cannot do anything on their own accord because they their is no thought or immaterial component behind them and when they do so it is because their is an immaterial property overlying the material.

An example to prove it is the property and capacity of purely material elements like earth, etc., to do anything on its own accord. But a human can do whatever he wants to with the earth. He can manipulate it to any form and the earth will submit.

It is like comparing a human with a robot. Why the immaterial human controls his material and that of other material elements existing the material robot is only capable of what it can do. It is not a mind.

Let me ask you, friend. Can you see words or your thoughts?

Sunymoore:

Shoetry oh sorry Poetry with all due respect when compared to science is royal bullshit my lady...

danthamccoy:

No, you cannot. And seriously, why is there even a comparison? All subjects are important yes, but if there is an apocalypse and you were in a position to save the last poets or the last biologists(or doctors, or technicians, or physicists) I'd like to think it would be an easy choice.
It's the 21st century and as important(?) as poetry is, the world won't miss it if there are suddenly no more poems.

UjSizzle:
Laykorn, I really dislike meaningless tags

First off, there's no point playing with semantics. I read your opening post and was addressing everyone trying to draw a parallel between science and arts.
They are both important. No 'could' 'would' maybe' or 'is' involved. Just two different yet similar fields where one draws inspiration from another. Period.
