Thread: The Scientific Method

The Sick and Wrong forum has seen more than its fair share of debates revolving around the whole issue of science and scientific knowledge. As far as I can remember they usually boil down to tranny from El Armpito and myself calling whimpering toothless chav and Trav a couple of weak-minded faggots who put their unquestioning, child-like faith in Richard Dawkins and other white coat-clad homos who talk shit about shit no human understands or even can understand, but do so in such a confident and commanding way that whimpering toothless chav and Trav idolize them and see them as idealized fathers who would also give them a good bumming.

Anyway, hopefully Melvyn's latest podcast will put this whole issue to bed once and for all:

The Scientific Method 26 Jan 2012

You really think one podcast will stop years of someone beliefs. It would be like finding proof that Jesus was fucking his own mother and the last supper was his coming out party. They would just claim that it's false and wrong

Ha! You faggots all fell into my trap. The whole point of this podcast was that it had Michela Massimi in it, talking in her sexy Italian accent. She oozes so much sensuality that even the bone-dry meaningless verbiage of science sounds erotic when it comes out of her mouth. And she's pretty damn hot for a top female boffin:


Dr. Michela Massimi



Michela Massimi was awarded the Italian Laurea degree in Philosophy (University of Rome "La Sapienza"). She then moved to London to complete an MPhil/PhD in Philosophy at the London School of Economics. At Girton College, she holds a Eugenie Strong Research Fellowship in History and Philosophy of Science. Michela´s research field is philosophy of science, with a focus on history of 20th century physics (from quantum mechanics to particle physics). Her current research is on scientific models and on the relationship between scientific theories and experimental evidence in the context of the on-going philosophical debate between scientific realism and anti-realism. She has defended a realist position against the middle ground of experimental realism (Philosophy of Science, Jan. 2004); and, she is now working on a new paper on data models in high energy physics and their impact on Bas van Fraassen´s constructive empiricism. She has recently completed a book for Cambridge University Press entitled "Pauli´s Exclusion Principle: the Origin and Validation of a Scientific Principle" (expected publication date October 2005), in which the history of the principle is reconstructed from the origins in spectroscopy to its later application in the quark theory. The historical analysis combines with the philosophical investigation of what a scientific principle is, and the role of Pauli´s principle during the revolutionary transition from the old quantum theory to the new quantum theory (post-1925). The philosophical framework underpinning this investigation follows up on Thomas Kuhn´s "post-Darwinian Kantianism" and Michael Friedman´s "dynamic Kantianism".

Michela is now Lecturer in History and Philosophy of Science at UCL.

The fact that none of you guys picked up on this just goes to show you're all queer. And by the way, whimpering toothless chav is a post-Darwinian Kant.

I am too lazy too listen to the podcast you posted besides the only reason I get sick and wrong each week is because I subscribed and I need to unload the porn off my vibrating gay dildo each week

Don't I always
