Quite a chip on your shoulder there. And the irony is that you ping others for deciding who is the king of correct thought, while kingmaking yourself.

- wfo 10y agoNo irony here, I don't kingmake, simply deflate arrogance -- one of life's most pleasurable pastimes.
- vacri 10y agoDoes Dawkins spend much time on HN? How do you see his arrogance being deflated by this comment? You talk about philosophy as though it's a subject close to your heart, yet you seem to define "a lot of STEM people" as being "Richard Dawkins", not to mention making the false dichotomy that STEM people and philosophers have no overlap. I've also never heard anyone complain of Dawkins denigrating arts degrees before. Have you a reference for that? Because it seems like you're unjustly projecting an awful lot onto the man.
