He reads philosophy

>he reads philosophy
haha you absolute brainlets. stop guessing around, get on a physics course, read some hawking, watch v-sauce, maybe read some original experiment papers. there, that is how you get your answers.

Good answers when asked what the meaning of it all is.

Philosophy is dead tho
t. Phil grad

>Scientism
>Excessive belief in the power of scientific knowledge and techniques.

It is the best way for acquiring knowledge about the physical world. Physics will teach you much more than Aristotelian logic. If Aristotle were alive today he would be a physicist.

philosophy is dead because it has been solved.

It's not a criticism against the scientific method as a valid method to obtain data, acquire new knowledge etc. It's a criticism against the often-held belief that it's the only valid way of obtaining new knowledge, that philosophy/ethics/religion are inherently worthless because of their lack of apparent empirical proves and that science will ultimately always result in a correct description of reality.

Well, he was also in favor of socialising the means of production as society got more and more automatised and I highly doubt he got there through empirical research.
So basically Hawking was larping as a STEMlord cause scientism I guess.

>materialism

i get the feeling you don't know formal logic

aristotle literally has a book named "physics" you brainlet

Woah, how do I get this intelligent?

but I enjoy reading philosophy

forever based

How about Aristotle defined physics as a field as well as any other western science and physycists are failed philosophers as they don't study anything except for physycs, while Aristotle literally explored every field available at his time to such a pedantic degree of detail that people attributed to him treatises on how to correctly was your feet? :D

This, but without a shred of irony.

Science will never answer why the universe exists. Nothing within this universe, such as gravity or other laws, can be what created the universe as a whole. But this is what Stephen Hawking literally says. “God did not create the universe, gravity did.” This is your brain on scientism and atheism.

Dawkins
>I mean it as a compliment...
Liberal arts majors
>WHAT DID HE FUCKING SAY IS HE DISRESPEXTING PHILOSOHY DOESNT HE KNOW EINSTEIN LIKED PHILOSOPHY

So? His reasoning is outdated.

If you have ever listened to the man talk about philosophy you can feel the facetious ooze dripping off that statement

Krauss is one seriously repulsive looking dude

What makes you think that, senpai? Besides the encroachment of disgusting analytics who seek to reduce everything to a matter of language and suck the soul out of the whole field.

Who solved the Byzantine fault? Not a computer scientist...

>Krauss is the most well-respected scientist in the right column
>also has the most offensively stupid quote

Do you have ADHD? Read the post I'm answering to. I was objecting the idea that Aristotle in modern times would have been a physicists, as he was studying everything ad the same time back in his days trying to create a system. He was an interdisciplinary genius, and would stay so in a modern setting, i.e. Aristotle wouldn't be a physicist today

Well don't forget the continentals are not doing any good to the field either. I feel like a reconciliation is in order if we want to produce anything new.

I feel like annihilation and starting over is more in order desu. Continentalism is fortunately dying, but analytic phil is like a malignant tumor that keeps spreading.

literal and absolute fucking trash.

Maybe you are right. Either way, things will go however they need to go, and there will be philosophy. I'm very skeptic over the possibility that human beings lose their desire to aimlessly muse over themselves and the world

G O O N H E A D S

can someone explain whas this guy was a big shot?
what did he discover?

or is like all thos guys in the right , that are only famous because divulgation ?

Good philosophy requires good writing. Hawking is a supremely poor writer, and therefore a supremely untalented philosopher. Untalented philosophers make for bitter men.

He wrote extensively on black holes, the Many-worlds Interpretation. Shame he didn't live long enough to see the photographs that came out this year.

so he didn't discover anything?.

he is just a celebrity because "sold more books than madona."

This guy's such a little faggot, feels good that I could squish his trachea under one foot.

He did a lot of important work on the study of cosmogony, gravitational waves, and black holes. Don't doubt these people are smart, doubt the know enough about philosophy to criticize it. For some reason we just assume someone with a physics degree must be an expert in every intellectual field, when that is virtually never the case

Yeah, just like Galileo and Copernicus were posers, people in antiquity already knew the earth wasn't flat and the sun didn't rotate around the Earth, they discovered nothing

Google epistemology please. Or don't. Also, have a you.

Maybe, but nowhere near what the real Greeks taught us.
Science is trash, and nothing it has produced even comes close to the top 100,000 culturaql works. Probably not even the top million.
(Except pic related, obviously.)

There's literally no point in studying physics

>This is your brain on scientism
Based
>and atheism.
Why did you have to throw away what was a good train of thought?

Anyway, what you should question, and what Hawkins ignores, is WHY those laws are?

show me something you consider to be the brilliant then. i guarantee it will be some pseudo dog shit.

Stephen Hawking is dead so everything he has ever said is invalid

Philosophy or Stephen Hawking, one of them is dead. Only a genius can tell which one is dead.
How did it die? What killed it?
