How did you find PF?
Accidentally on purpose
Hi. WendyDarling, the newbie. Happy to be here. Usually I hang in philosophy forums, but I’m excited to discuss existence in a more empirical way. I’ll be setting up residence in the Cosmology section. Everyone’s invited to participate. Tally ho!

Hello and :welcome: !

Just be aware that we do not discuss philosophy. But we can discuss the science of bubblegum! :cool:

..., and RRP's movies.
 
Any other recommendations where philosophy(the ugly step child) can hob-knob with science? I am already at sciforums.com

Just looking for an intelligent, active community to discuss my proposition which I can empirically prove.

You probably should take a look at the PF Rules.

You can't get more empirical than that!
 
Attempts at discussing Philosophy usually backfire on this forum (physicsforums). Scientific and engineering discussions into Mind Set might proceed better.
 
I believe science and philosophy must intersect for any headway in science to occur. Otherwise, it's mountains of theories at best each with a few practical applications, at worst no applications, mostly fanciful algorithms and memetic catch words all based on non-empirical shenanigans.

Thanks for the suggestions. My objective is to convince science nerds as well as philosophical gurus that I have glimpsed behind "the curtain." ILOVEPHILOSOPHY.com as WendyDarling. Discussion welcome. Taker easy.

Philosophy discussed on the internet rarely deserves the label science. STEM fields and philosophy require a different pattern of thoughts. This became nowhere more obvious than in the exchange of letters between Popper and Einstein about the book of the former.

Such discussions evolve at best in the direction of Wittgenstein, but rarely reach this level. They are usually simply an endless gibberish without meaning and sense.
