Richard Feynman, anti-fundamentalist

Friday, January 9th, 2009

Richard Feynman holds forth:




Think about what rituals, assumptions and habits we all have that we just take for granted: quite irrationally, of course. How would we ever begin to expunge our lives of irrationality? We depend on it for survival. Feynman shows how our success depends not on any single perspective that we have, but rather in our ability to switch perspectives, to see from as many perspectives as possible.
