Evo's going to love this one haha.
 
lol that's a good one indeed.
 
That's great!
 
So that's where the Philosoraptor came from.
 
That was nice...and who knows,maybe true
 
I know a cosmologist who specializes in philosophy who would disagree. Without knowing the math there isn't that much useful philosophy that can done on the subject and philosophy still forms the foundation of every branch of the sciences.

:-p That's the joke. How many people in online philosophy forums discuss things like physics and don't know math? How many people come here claiming to have found huge errors in physics, but they need someone to do the math for them so they can get it published and receive a Nobel prize? (Hint: there are a LOT) :biggrin:
 
Haha, that was an amazing one XD Good find.

Definitely added to my plethora of material for expressing my hatred for philosophy (esp. in the context of science.)
