War On Drugs Violent Crime
1,673 wordsIntroduction One point on which almost everyone interested in drug prohibition agrees is the existence of a connection between drugs and violent crime.

Critics of the war on drugs argue that the attempt to prohibit drug use leads to violent crime and that that is one of the reasons dru...

Cause And Effect Matters Of Fact

Quantum Mechanics Truth Value
1,497 wordsThe debate between realism and anti-realism is, at least, a century old. Does Science describe the real world? or are its theories true only within a certain conceptual framework? Is science only instrumental or empirically adequate or is there more to it than that? Jose Ortega y Glasses said (in an unrelated exchange) that all ideas stem from pre-rational beliefs. William James concurred by saying that accepting a truth often requires an act of will which goes beyond facts and into the realm of...
