Why You Should Never Say "It's Just A Theory"
A portion of our culture distrusts the scientific method, assuming that there are transcendent truths unknowable by science. But nothing is truly out of bounds for science. If it's real, it can be studied, and tested. Perhaps the greatest misunderstanding our culture has about the scientif

Moral Skepticism - Philippa Foot (1970)
A criticism of moral skepticism in which expressions of form is analyzed and found to be other than skeptics have maintained. Moral concepts are suggested to have primary and dependent uses. The skeptics have latched on to the dependent; hence, their error. #Philosophy #Ethics #Metaethics

A Defense of Classical Theology (Part 3): A Critique of Scientism and Naturalism
In part 3 of this series, I'd like to talk a bit about scientism and naturalism, which are two ideas that often surface when talking about natural theology. Usually they are brought in to outright dismiss any argument from metaphysics because it's not 'scientific' or cannot be 'empirically

Using nonstandard natural numbers in Ramsey Theory - M. Di Nasso - Workshop 1 - CEB T1 2018
Mauro Di Nasso (Pisa) / 01.02.2018 In Ramsey Theory, ultrafilters often play an instrumental role. By means of nonstandard models, one can reduce those third-order objects (ultrafilters are sets of sets of natural numbers) to simple points. In this talk we present a nonstandard technique
