Ksihkehe - You've hit on a couple very interesting topics (to me anyway).  Very relevant in the current times as well.

That was an excellent and thoughtful reply, the kind that is now rare but is what first drew me to discussion forums.

I had no intent elicit feelings of shame about your hard science background. I knew I wanted to be a scientist since I was le 6 years old. I don't find you overly dogmatic or prone to conflating criticism of science with shots at your ego. There are plenty of academics that are true scientists, deep thinkers, and do so with sufficient mastery that they're also true philosophers. Increasingly, it seems like academia has no room for them though.

Of course, the fact that the vast majority of college professors are now vapid, left-wing, politics-obsessed, wet brains, has a lot to do with that.
