Bazza Posted January 3, 2018 Author Report Share Posted January 3, 2018 Hey what do you know, you learn something new everyday. Ockham's Razor is found in his theological writings, not his philosophical writings. Ockham's Razor, from the Stanford Encyclopedia of Philosophy Quote As he says in Sent. I, dist. 30, q. 1: “For nothing ought to be posited without a reason given, unless it is self-evident (literally, known through itself) or known by experience or proved by the authority of Sacred Scripture.” Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cancer Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 A common enough thing, as parochial as locally controlled schools are here. I'm more used to novels getting whacked, but nothing is safe against the small-minded. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pariah Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 Yeah, I remember the story of kids needing to take home a permission slip to read Fahrenheit 451 in class.

Pariah Posted January 12, 2018 Report Share Posted January 12, 2018 "We're going to use matrices," the professor said, "because they're easier than differentials." Is that true?
