After looking around a little more, I should clarify what I meant perhaps.
The part about agreeing with EY (so far) was about psychology, ethics, morality, epistemology, even the little of politics I saw. The “so far” is doing heavy work there, I’ve only been around for a week, and focusing first on the topics most immediately relevant to my work and studies. More importantly, I haven’t touched the physics yet (which from what I’ve seen in this page is something I should have mentioned), and I’m not qualified to “take sides” if I had.
The paragraph was not prompted (only) by EY, but by my marvel at the quality of discussions here. No caveats there, this community has really impressed me. The way it works, not the conclusions, although they’re certainly correlated.
I’m used to having to defend rationality in a very relevant portion of the discussions I have, before it’s possible to move on to anything productive (of course, those tend not to move on at all). This is a breath of fresh air.
Oi, eu venho tentando juntar brasileiros capazes de pensar faz algum tempo. Dirijo o www.ierfh.org e ja visitei a parte MIRI do pessoal desse site por um mês. Se achar o conteúdo do FAQ do site interessante, envie mensagem para o IERFH, tem comunidade no facebook também, e etc…
