I think I'll leave this particular rabbit to run where it will. I don't think that Kennyc and I are likely to reach agreement, and I've had my say. Philosophy is a wide field, and although it obviously touches on religion and on science, I suspect that the original aims that Florence had when she opened this thread were elsewhere.

Thanks for the link.
Here's the wikipedia entry on him:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Paul_Feyerabend
apparently he had a bone to pick with science as well and made something of an infamous reputation on it.
Likely worth a read.
