attempting to teach someone via the internet about the problem of induction

to show that all scientific ‘knowledge’ in fact lies on the basis of a blindly accepted belief (i.e., that the future will be like the past, or that the same physical rules that govern the universe won’t change) to prove that blindly believing something hardly makes one childish and gullible.

it’s not going too well…

you all read one post and argue that that one post is stupid, when you don’t know the rest of my philosophy!

they all make perfect sense when you read the rest of my philosophy!

This sentence has five words. Here are five more words. Five-word sentences are fine. But several together become monotonous. Listen to what is happening. The writing is getting boring. The sound of it drones. It’s like a stuck record. The ear demands some variety. Now listen. I vary the sentence length, and I create music. Music. The writing sings. It has a pleasant rhythm, a lilt, a harmony. I use short sentences. And I use sentences of medium length. And sometimes, when I am certain the reader is rested, I will engage him with a sentence of considerable length, a sentence that burns with energy and builds with all the impetus of a crescendo, the roll of the drums, the crash of the cymbals—sounds that say listen to this, it is important.
