"Two things are infinite: the universe and human stupidity; and I'm not sure about the the universe."
Albert Einstein
One of the greatest minds in history said this, and i agree (for human dumbness).
Today on philosophy/logic class we learned about philosophy itself, that it deal with unreal and real things, about human conclusion or thinking. We glorify maniacs like Aristotle, Plato, Heraclitus just because they were living long time ago and were the first who thought not just about getting drunk or laid, yet about universe, metaphysics, etc. 
Also, i don't like when people talk about unproved things, for example: planet is going to vanish in zillion years, universe is expanding (though it's infinite, how can it expand then if it doesn't have an end!?), four horsemen of the apocalypse will kill us all, yeah right.
And what's with the 'what is the author trying to say' thing? Just write the damn thought as it is, metaphors were always unpopular.
But who am i to judge, i'm just a 17-year old kid.
And look at this shit.

k, but some stuff is proven. the universe is expanding.
also, yeah, they were the first guys to say those things about logic and science, but anyway it took a lot of imagination to leave the old ideas and come up with something new. new scientists already know what the guys before them did.
also, holy shit, you're blogging every day :o
