Subject: Any creative thinkers out there? (no scientists allowed....go AWAY) Author: Primordial [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ] Date Posted: 02/21/02 10:01pm Welcome to a new type of sandbox: creative thinking allowed; experiment intended. I assert that what man WAS, IS and WILL BE fits inside a metaphorical box. This places limitations on man's progress as all thinking is confined to the box. I further assert that a mutation can occur whereby certain "men/women" are capable of thought outside the box; thus, man's progress is altered considerably. I offer up Albert Einstein as one possible mutation. Again, the mutations are capable of thinking outside the box. Question 1. Are you a reasonably thinking person who exists inside the box? Shaw:(I'm paraphrasing) 'A reasonably thinking man expects to adapt to nature. An unreasonably thinking man expects nature to adapt to him. Thus, all progress is made by unreasonable men.' Question 2. What application can be made using the above quote to question 1? [ Next Thread | Previous Thread | Next Message | Previous Message ]
