"Insert these definitions and discard the disciplines and professions that don't fit with your specification of science, and you have "Ignorance, greed are absolutely necessary qualities of the people actively engaged in science."

That means, people actively engaged in science need to be greedy and ignorant, because those qualities are absolutely necessary."

dude this is becoming a joke

i'm saying that ignorance and greed are qualities people have and the practitioners of science are people... very simple, accept that you were wrong and move the hell on ffs

it has nothing to do about "needing", jesus christ if i say people have skin does that mean i'm saying people "need" skin? that's literally what you're doing right now

It was YOU who said scientists need to be ignorant and greedy. You literally said it in this quote (emphasis on the bold) "i think what you are missing is that 'ignorance, greed' are indispensable aspects of the practitioners of science".

When everyone is pointing out you are wrong, well, it probably means you are. Have some self-reflection. Just try to think for a few seconds "hmm, what if all those people have a point? What if I am wrong about some things?". Well  who am I kidding... at this point I refuse to believe your intention is to have a decent discussion at all. Report me all you want, let's see how that turns out.

i'm glad that you decided to get involved instead of throwing insults from the sidelines

 

"It was YOU who said scientists need to be ignorant and greedy. You literally said it in this quote (emphasis on the bold) "i think what you are missing is that 'ignorance, greed' are indispensable aspects of the practitioners of science"

yes i didn't deny it, i'm pointing out that he's rewording what i said to make it sound illogical even though its obviously true

 

"When everyone is pointing out you are wrong"

bullshit, you have not pointed out how the statement is wrong, if you want to try now go ahead since he has failed


"at this point I refuse to believe your intention is to have a decent discussion at all."

lol you've been the one attacking me constantly dude don't be a hypocrite
