(Da notare come anche il giornalaio che ha condotto l'intervista ha, involontariamente, messo sullo stesso piano filosofia e religione)

"Philosophy hasn't progressed in two thousand years."
[CUT]
"Philosophy is a field that, unfortunately, reminds me of that old Woody Allen joke, "those that can't do, teach, and those that can't teach, teach gym." And the worst part of philosophy is the philosophy of science; the only people, as far as I can tell, that read work by philosophers of science are other philosophers of science. It has no impact on physics what so ever, and I doubt that other philosophers read it because it's fairly technical. And so it's really hard to understand what justifies it. And so I'd say that this tension occurs because people in philosophy feel threatened, and they have every right to feel threatened, because science progresses and philosophy doesn't."


Ma che vuoi che ne sappia lui di scienza.
