5614 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Which science is the most important to you in your life? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nate Barna Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I chose all of the above. I may one day grow out of being idealistic, but currently i sort of believe that everyone for whom its possible should strive to be a polymath. There would be less overall consumption, better choices, fewer misunderstandings, more rational discourse, and even better technology. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YT2095 Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 Likewise, I also chose all the above. and there`s nothing wrong with being an idealist either, if it`s tempered with logic and practicality I`ll also point out that the initial question is somewhat misleading... is this asked from an academic veiwpoint or a realistic one? I answered from an acedemic perspective, but on a Real basis, Social Science is equaly as important in everyday life Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
aommaster Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 I too, went for all of the above. If I have want to becoeme a chemical engineer, then, I must have a good knowledge of physics and chemistry. The biology isn't that important for me, but, it can help me if I have a bit of general knowledge. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
5614 Posted September 22, 2004 Author Share Posted September 22, 2004 I`ll also point out that the initial question is somewhat misleading... is this asked from an academic veiwpoint or a realistic one?the question says "in your life" so a physicist might take physics as the most important part of their life because its their job. however they may think that biology is more important, as it includes study and advance in the human body [us] this is more important than studying the laws of the world that we live in [physics]that is what i meant. i said physics because i think it is the most interesting and the one in which we can advance in the most and we can enhance our lives by studying it further.

JHAQ Posted September 22, 2004 Share Posted September 22, 2004 ALL science is important to me because I feel it is the only objective rational way to real truth & never forecloses .Religion requires the affirmation of a subjective act of faith , invests in dogma & forecloses on any truth that tends to question it .
