"Andrew asked for "how to deal with information that falls outside of" a
scientific paradigm.
Having thought about this for 3 days, I think information can't fall
outside of a scientific paradigm."
*** end of quote ***
Rol, I would be most intersted in an elaboration of why information can't
fall outside a scientific paradigm. Just the other day I read something
regarding free-will and pre-destiny on one of the lists I belong to which
was outside my paradigm, or mental model if you will. I read it 4 times
and each time I unconsciously refused to see the connection for it was
simply something I has already decided I didn't believe... And then
finally I managed to get by my own roadblock and the statement was most
meaningful... I know paradigms get in the way, and even as I try not to be
hampered by them.... it still happens. So what chance does one who has not
realized the failing really have?
