Maybe what this planet needs is the Crusade for Objective Reality, a
cooperative of hard-science organizations and whatever religions still
dare to proclaim themselves as truth instead of a way of making nice to
the neighbors. Yes, we may see it our lifetimes - fundamentalist
Christians and physicists banding together to make war on New Agers and
social scientists!

Give me that old-time philosophy
Give me that old-time philosophy
Give me that old-time philosophy
It was good enough for Socrates, and it's good enough for me.
