Philosophical
Musings By John Sparrock |
|
The view of
this author
is that
simple
topics are
the safest
for general
publication.
Here the
majority of
the audience
are in
general
agreement.
When we
encounter
topics which
have several
plausible
explanations,
things
become
rather
controversial.
Those who
work at the
cutting edge
of research
appreciate
that there
is a long
road ahead
with some
vexing
problems.
Here we will focus on those areas of the Sciences which may not be easily tested as required by the accepted scientific standards. We will also address the inevitable controversy which exists between some scientists and the religious establishment. Disclosure The facts presented in these pages have been compiled from sources considered to be reliable. The questions posed are those of the author who is seeking clarification when assumptions and claims seem to be questionable. All opinions expressed are those of the author and do not in any way represent the opinion of any members of his Alma Mater. |
| Discussion Areas |
| Cosmologists and Astronomers are struggling to apply knowledge of Terrestrial phenomena to the entire Universe. Could the quest for knowledge be misguided?? |
|
We could
start this
topic with
Big Bang
Cosmology,
or we may
start
somewhere
after - with
the
discussion
about the
Galaxies.
These are
more easily
observed,
but they
illustrate
the many
complexities
in this
field of
study. We will begin with Things Celestial . |
| Biologists, Paleontologists and Evolutionists are continually searching for clues to better understand how life started and evolved on planet earth. |
