Where The Pundit Sends You
Over at Classical Values, where I went chasing an Instapundit reference to the mystery of Arafat's death, I happened on a post that dovetails with my article earlier today on the power of the blogosphere as a a superheated evolutionary crock pot .
The author was waxing over the fluctuating value we attach to the word "truth" and the damage done to that concept as well as other ideals by the cataclysmic introduction of deconstructionism into the collegiate curriculum and then into modern intellectual circles...
One can consider deconstructionism as the intellectual equivalent of a computer "worm" -- a mechanized, hidden, takeover of the CPU by an unseen cluster of commands that, without announcing itself, subsumes the computer's tasks for the purpose of propagating itself, or its own propaganda throughout its known universe.
Embarrassment of the Elites
This worm -- deconstructionism -- really is the underlying, resonant anthem of the modern European liberal -- the personage so cherished by the elites of this past election season -- the ones who've been so thoroughly embarrassed...
And part of that emabarrassment came about via the blogosphere, a phenomenon we've probably only just witnessed the birth of.
Here was my response to his post:
Escaping Gravity And Blasting Cytokines:
Yes, it is frustrating to try to find "truth" when faced with a host of responders ready to redefine the word -- or undefine the word or even your ability to talk about the concept. Your discussion is one I had with myself a long time ago and it is the reason I decided to pursue empirical science. Because you can't take that away from me. Because that's how rockets are made that can escape the pull of gravity and that's how monoclonal antibodies can be fashioned to obliterate subsectors of the inflammatory cascade and CURE rheumatoid arthitis...I'd rather pursue truths that can be tested and then used with confidence...and predictability.
But in the same fashion, I really, really believe that empirical truths exist in social sciences and in philosophy, except the proofs can always be disputed, and even when there are definable results they can be undermined by rhetoric (curse the Sophists who started it all); especially intellectually venal rhetoric that purposely (and deviously) appeals to common misunderstandings or lesser human ideals (such as greed).
Why The Blogosphere Matters...and Antimatters
The blogosphere holds out the first chance I've seen -- by its inborn evolutionary information processing -- to head off the massive antimatter-like deconstruction of everything once considered right that has been ongoing for 30 years -- the evil spawn of effete French philosophers.
If effective, and recognized, and adopted, the products of the "natural selection" of ideas from the blogosphere may produce the equivalent of empirical results so powerful and so indisputable as to create new ideals from which mankind can once again draw relevance and authority -- and that's why I've joined it.



I have to say, I'm blown away by this, and by your remarkable blog. Your experience and education are matched only by your keen insights. Whatever you do, please KEEP WRITING! (And many thanks for the link, of course.)
