Scott Adams speaks

If your only exposure to Scott Adams is through his Dilbert comic, then you've been missing out. I urge you to take a gander at his blog. I know, it contains Dilbert in the title, and the comic strip is an occasional topic, but there is much more. Not that I'm a fanboy, or advocating (or agreeing with) everything that he writes (it is a blog after all), but he does bring some fresh perspectives. And you may even stumble onto some gems.

In particular, his most recent entry (Yay! Both Sides Won!) talks about the ongoing Israel-Hezbollah conflict. A very worthy read, and something to think about.

Also, if you haven't yet, I urge you to grab a copy of God's Debris: A Thought Experiment. Read it with an open mind, as a work of fiction and an exercise in experimental philosophy. It probably won't (and shouldn't) change your world view, nor does it attempt to. And yes, at times it reads like a teenager studying philosophy. But still, I highly recommend it.
