There seems to be a lot of metaphysical baggage carried around.<br /><br />The nice thing about our multimedia format is that you can directly engage with specific comments or statements. So I would recommend you leaving your comments on the Circling the Square blog.@ReinerGrundmannhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12759452975366986236noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8216971263350849959.post-48924912130272311022014-07-16T20:42:54.395+02:002014-07-16T20:42:54.395+02:00Reiner,

I have read through Philip Moriarty's post and ensuing discussion, and participated in discussion at <i>And then there's physics</i>. <br /><br />I genuinely cannot understand the reaction in spite of being a physicist myself. What they are imagining of loosing by understanding the point of view you brought up at Moriarty's. To me your way of thinking is totally obvious, and in no way against the value of physics and other similar sciences. I wonder, whether you have some explanation.<br /><br />A totally different issue in my thinking is discussing the relationship between climate science and climate policy related decision making. That discussion has direct practical implications, and it's fully natural that different people reach different conclusions on such questions. (That's probably true also about you and me.)<br />Pekka Pirilähttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04747229036782463233noreply@blogger.com
