DoctorAlien: If only more philosophers of science would openly admit this very fundamental problem facing science as a whole, we might see a world with much greater academic freedom to challenge established paradigms (like evolution).
"Scientists seek to eliminate all forms of bias from their research. However, all scientists also make assumptions of a non-empirical nature about topics such as causality, determinism and reductionism when conducting research. Here, we argue that since these ‘philosophical biases’ cannot be avoided, they need to be debated critically by scientists and philosophers of science."
This is quite true!
This is indeed true. As is written "Male and female created he them; and blessed them, and called their name Adam, in the day when they were created."
We try to eliminate bias but bias is us and we cannot separate an objective self from our subjective selves, so we "debate critically" instead of continously presenting article after article that only supports our biased position.
DoctorAlien: If only more philosophers of science would openly admit this very fundamental problem facing science as a whole, we might see a world with much greater academic freedom to challenge established paradigms (like evolution). Another important quote:
"Basic philosophical assumptions count as biases because they skew the development of hypotheses, the design of experiments, the evaluation of evidence, and the interpretation of results in specific directions."
We should try and openly admit. And not tenaciously hang on to 6000 year creationism! Or do "lens" not matter anymore?
To be honest with you anybody who did not understand it considering the Doctrines of Atem all over nl should not even be engaging or quoting Otem but should be trembling their minds!
johnydon22: Preacher: Jesus came so that we can be saved and opened the doors of heaven.
Me: What about moses, Samuel and millions of humans through history who died before Jesus came?
Preacher: God overlooked and allowed them into heaven
Me: So, Jesus didn't really save anyone or opened the doors of heaven, it was already opened as you have stated above. Jesus in his bid to help seems to just ended up making it harder?
Preacher:
Is this what you think Jesus did, or what the Preacher told you Jesus did?
sonmvayina: jesus is just a roman idol...because i dont see how he is relevant to anything..just to deceive and make people disobey the laws and commandments of God..
So, Jesus, as far as you understand is a Roman idol that "deceived and made people disobey the laws and commandments of God"?
Lordreed under attack for giving his objective opinion concerning an argument between jesusjnr and Otematum.
I'm so humbled!
But abeg oh, no be do or die affair, if e too much make you just give them wetin dem want, for me I no want you to be hated of all men for my moniker sake oh! Lol!
You are obviously doing it for him my Lord. And its good, maybe you can save him.
LordReed: As much as you think jesusjnr does dumb things at times one must acknowledge the truth nevertheless. It was not dumb what he did, it was pedantic and he acknowledged it in what he said.
This has nothing to do with anything else dumb jnr did! He himself can point you to posts of his that were not dumb and that I've shared today!
Atheist on here are quite as close minded and dogmatic as the religious people they accuse of same behavior.
Here, people don't read comments or arguments to understand, consider the point, they just read to throw back a reply and then Win
Atheism 1 - 0 theism Atheism 0 - 1theism
Kinda
It is the putting people in little boxes that nauseates me. You say one thing and they hear the opposite of what you said and they then tell you to defend what they made up in their own head and claim you said it! How can anyone take half a look at what one says and stick a label on one?
Lets see them win while funnily laying a trail for them to go back to and reflect and evolve however long they may try to cover their eyes and not perceive their faux pas.
johnydon22: Budaa it is ok na. Henry doesn't get it. Lol
I know. But he did say his mind is open so let me spit on mud and rub it in his blind mind until he does get it. Then will you too see how one makes people see the immaterial that they refuse to see with their very tiny minds and closed eyes.
I swear to you that sometimes, the way one has to be is enough to make one not bother showing some people anything!
LordReed: It has nothing to do with patronizing, its a fact, him using end would have been clearer but you still reach the same conclusion even as he used fulfil.
I too just did not say ni o my Lord, you more than pated than stated fact. Makes me wonder if you would be up to adjudicating #deactivateyourmoniker on your own and should appoint a jury.
vaxx: buda thank your star, you are not sharing the same CONTINENT with such an animal . From my own perspective. He even don't love Nigeria ( he is one of those who go on preaching breakaway) from their bedroom
Thank what? When they are beating me in Qatar do they care that I'm not on the same continent with this pitiable excuse for a professor? Is it not the students of this same professor who will come on here thinking they have education while spewing thrash this useless professor taught them?
I don't see what there is to be thankful for vaxx because wherever I am I am Nigeria.
jesusjnr: I just thought something did not sit quite right in his expression, even though I saw what he wanted to do, i didn't think he managed to pull it off with the example he gave.
Much respect though for admitting it.
Thanks but don't forget we still have something to yet look forward to. #deactivateyourmoniker Lol!
Regarding that #deactivateyourmoniker I don't agree its firm enough my Lord. As it is, buda can deactivate buda and become buda2 then whats the point?
Do you not think #deactivateyourmoniker should mean "get the fuq off nl completely and in all forms"?
Its not as if buda can't publicly grovel before the day and still remain but buda should not be allowed to not grovel and then return as buda2 unless it is to accept the ridicule that buda would rightly deserve.
I would be delighted my Lord if you explain it to your client and seek his opinion and hopefully, agreement.
jesusjnr: If what you have is a brain, then I'd rather be brainless, for it would be better than having what you call a brain!!!
Don't take buda word for it jnr, but you are brainless already.
jesusjnr: What if I argue nonsense, is it your damn business?
On Nairaland we make it our "damn business". Its why we are on a forum and not just talking to the wall.
jesusjnr: Or don't I have the right to argue nonsense if I chose to?
Of course you "have the right to argue nonsense" if you chose to. And we have the right to tell you you are arguing nonsense and we choose to.
jesusjnr: You are nothing but an aproko, something that they did not send you, is what you'd be doing and when you get what you're asking for, you'd start crying foul, for did I even call you here?
Are you just realising that buda pokes nose? I thought it was obvious I must have been assuming!
buda super aproko
It means buda don't mind buda business and pokes nose in jnr's!
You knowing buda now.
jesusjnr: I usually ignore you because i consider you as a fool, that is not worth dignifying with a response, but whenever i do respond it's justified by your foolishness.
jnr, ten of you would not have the might to ignore buda not even one billion of you can ignore aproko poke jnr nose buda!
Amah70: Abroad, president Buhari called you and other Nigerian youths criminals and lazy.
Put your phone down where we are and will it not disappear? Go around on NL and do you not see we lazy ass Nigerian youths accusing Buhari of not giving us food, "we are starving"? If we sat down like that in our father's house will our father not say we are lazy?
Buhari, you made a mistake! You should have remained in Nigeria and said, "Our youths are criminal and lazy!" Maybe we might have faced the truth if you had!
LordReed: Yeah you are correct, he would have been clearer.
Yeah he should be clearer. He already goes to farm the food, prepares the food, puts it in a bowl in front of you, picks up the fork and puts it in your mouth and chews it for you too. You do no work to try to understand. Does he have to poo for you too?!
