Message-ID: <215@talcott.UUCP> Date: Sat, 5-Jan-85 15:54:02 EST Article-I.D.: talcott.215 Posted: Sat Jan 5 15:54:02 1985 Date-Received: Tue, 8-Jan-85 03:01:40 EST Distribution: net Organization: Harvard Lines: 12 Sir Eccles and many other people, and probably Ken Arndt, argue that since reason alone cannot answer all questions, we must resort to faith. Well, this is simply silly. It's about as silly as some doctor saying: "We at the Mayo Clinic have seen for ourselves that medicine alone cannot prevent or cure all diseases and deformities. Therefore we have decided to go with blood-letting." Lack of a right answer does not mean that we should go with a wrong one. --- Greg Kuperberg harvard!talcott!gjk
