Interesting post, very itneresting, volantis.
I agree that it seems that sciencists are colsed to new thoeries. But remember, science itsel fis nto closed at all, science is open to a TOE, you can see that by the fact that it is easy to conclude, after having some knowledge of science, that something is missing, and that is, the "principle".
It is the individuals, the scientist, hho are close dto new theories. They have been 100 years, now, exactly, developing their view of everything, and, they believe, they are correct, not only tha,t but they believe that from what they know now, they caqn directly develop the principle but that isn't true. It's te same as when Newton's theory was started to be disagreed in particular subjects off new theories, and finally when Maxwell dvelop his electromagnetic theory. Around a third of a decade later, little Einstein made his even-more-than-maxwell's revolutionary theory. But since then, we have nto revolutioned any mor,e and it si clearly the momnent to start running for this revolution, which will lead to the the TOE.
Now, you say that we "have to" acheive the TOE. What tells you this? I think it's just your basic belief. I think that we WILL acheive a TOE, but not because we "must to" because any supernatural or moral/implicational cause, and not because we "have to" because it's something we exist for/to, or has to be done for good, I believe we will arrive to the TOE because of the simple reason that we are able to think about it, and thus, now, I quote my most admired Wittgenstein: "If it is possible to think about it, it is possible to exist". Now, if we can create a problem, it has to be taht we can solve it, for if not our minds could not have made the whole theme. |
