I've been listening to a prerelease of the album for several weeks now and it has a bit of everything and more.<br /><br />I had to look up more words in your reply than in the original article! I just took him to say that there's a commonality in all fields of endeavor and to dispel the apparent conflict of free will and determinism.<br /><br />Johnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06038956427789115440noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3260056830686404550.post-57517209298705683382013-03-31T11:46:28.231-06:002013-03-31T11:46:28.231-06:00John, on Berserk, I missed the links first time. Y...John, on Berserk, I missed the links first time. You appreciate and understand modern art and music more than I. I don't dis-like it but I don't understand it. Most of the time.<br /><br />I just finished the Existentialism/Evolution piece. Well written, easy to follow.<br /><br />A few thoughts, I know there are "interdisciplinary tensions" but I don't like it. If a discipline is a way of knowing then we're all aiming for the same thing which is to understand from whence we came, where we're going, and what (how, why) we do while we're here. That's naive, I know. <br /><br />That being said I think he identified inherent problems with both schools.<br /><br />I'll never understand the telelogy of non-theistic evolutionists but every school of thought assumes certain unprovable truths. <br /><br />Anyway, sorry for the rambling, scatter-shooting thoughts. I enjoyed the very thoughtful piece.Francis Shivonehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17211824074217323164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3260056830686404550.post-47884923523580357902013-03-31T09:49:46.601-06:002013-03-31T09:49:46.601-06:00Thanks, Fran.
