illusion. His theory is based on the belief that
human impulse is to murder and be promiscuous. If
that assumption is correct, then his theory that
religion is helping to prohibit these impulses,
can have some merit. However, since it is
impossible to ascertain the nature of man, it is
impossible to determine whether religion is
actually helping to prevent these impulses. Freud
claims that moral prohibitions would not be obeyed
by a majority of p...

to the question at the basis of this essay,
society and its institutions constrain the
scientists working within it into a certain way of
working and thinking and therefore society changes
what is accepted as knowledge and not the other
way around. Indeed wha...

valid form of education. Training in specific
skills is quite possibly...

End Of The Line Hold The Fish Fly
333 words
The Physics of Fly-fishin What does it take to
launch an ultra-light fishing line over 200 feet?
A little physics and a lot of feel for the fishing
rod, that s what. The trick to doing good is to
have the thinner, end of the line, land on the
water first then the fly. The end of the line
cushions the fly, having the effect that a fly is
landing on the water, not a piece of nylon string.
This may sound easy, but it s a lot harder than it
seems. Just getting it to go that far is like
pitching a co...
