Science is built on the foundation of Philosophy.
If Philosophy is nonsense, then Science is built on a foundation of nonsense.

Interesting to find an Aristotelianism here. However, the premise is incorrect, so the conclusion is neither correct nor incorrect. Science is built on the error of Cartesianism, the error being in not using reason to locate the limits of knowledge.

I've heard of Aristotle, but I've never met him.

Someone you know?


It appears that you are saying that science is based on an error.

Now I can see that Naturalistic Science clearly makes more than a few logical blunders, but what about Empirical Science?


Care to clarify?

Scary, I could detect echoes of both John Donne *and* Hillaire Belloc in that statement...
