Pike's Blurbs |
About me:
Philosopher, Musician, Nature-fanatic, Well-rounded freak- all titles that I answer to with pride...
In terms of views, I think that religion poses the single greatest threat that humanity has even faced, and that christianity and it's imposition on American society is going to bring about the destruction of all that we hold dear [as well as the world]. I think that "intelligent design theory" is a pathetic, sleight-of-hand trick to sneak creationalism into schools, when it is in fact nothing more than an ignorant and moronic failure to conceive of the universe/cosmos as anything larger than our solar system. I think that rigorous analysis, often of a scientific nature, ought to guide our actions and policies. I think that G.W. Bush and his cronies are the very embodiment of fascist evil and greed. I think that no political situation can justify torture (although consenting adults in a bedroom may be another matter, depending on your views...), and am outraged by the political state of affairs, especially those changes recently wrought by the republican party.
Philosophically, I strongly favor the analytic approach over the continental, and am specializing in epistemology, metaphysics, philosophy of mind, science, and logic.

Who I'd like to meet:
People with some similar interests who enjoy engaging in dialectic aimed at improving our understanding of the nature and reality of the universe. I really enjoy discussions with people who read widely and think analytically, and can bring well thought-out positions to the table that everyone can learn from (while still being open to changing them if changes are shown to be appropriate!)
