Hi Phil,
I'll wait until the referees have reported on our Einstein/Quantum
Mechanics debate. I'm sure they will have found that both sides have made
some errors in this discussion.
But I have to say that last your last effort to smear Heisenberg by
implying moral relativism from the uncertainty principle is just as absurd
and insulting as conservative Christians drawing the same moral conclusions
about Einsteinian relativity and Whiteheadian process philosophy.
You have performed a vicious ad hominem attack. There are any number of
Germans from the Nazi period that we could completely condemn and eliminate
from history if we used your methods consistently. I did my dissertation
on Martin Heidegger, who, I later came to know, did despicable things as
Nazi rector of the University of Freiburg, and, who until his death,
refused to come clean about his Nazi past, but it is simply a fallacy to
then say that everything he wrote philosophically is wrong because of that.
By the way, the first name is Nick (not Mick) and as a realist I'm very
much concerned about my existence (not existance). My posts have a few
typos even after proof reading, but posting without proofing is sloppy and
shows disrespect for your dialogue partners.
Nick
