Well, they don't let him teach math or logic:
Oxford University professor Richard Swinburne, a leading philosopher of religion, has seemingly done the impossible.
At least at my university, logic was
also
taught in the philosophy department -- I took Logic 101 there, as well as a course on Goedel's Incompleteness.
They let this man teach anything? At freaking Oxford?
Maybe he teachs at their extension school.
At least at my university, logic was also taught in the philosophy department
Point taken. They do at URI, too.
I'm thinking this guy studied math here [link]
Everything on that site is obviously true. You can tell by the giant fonts.
Right. Also, if there's a 50% chance that god exists, then there
can't
be the same chance that god becomes incarnate. Because if god exists only 50% of the time, and [if god=yes] he has a 50% chance of becoming incarnate, then it's 50% x 50%, or 25%.
I am not Miss Mathy and I can do that part. Why am I not a lecturer at a university??
Wow, ND. That reads like a Dr. Bronner's soap bottle.
I'm so tempted to ask "What are you eating? Sounds tasty!" but I've already been veiledly hostile today, and the week's only just starting.
I love that site. One of my favorites.
Ooooo! Dr. Bronner's soap! It's been forever since I got some of that.
Also, Nutty, once I'm teaching can you come in to do that lecture? Nobody ever seems to get that. "If this is true half the time and this is true half the time, what's the probability of their both being true at the same time?" "Er... one!"
Also, I'm wondering if I can pull a bunch of numbers out of my ass and prove that Paris Hilton is really an alien from the planet Dimarias and then get an article posted on Netscape News. How could someone read that article and let it get put up as news?
