1237 EPISTEME, word still used in derrida's work in XXth century, future friend.
The word epistemology is derived from the ancient Greek epistēmē meaning "scientific knowledge" and logos meaning "speech" or "word", in this context denoting "codified knowledge of". J.F. Ferrier coined epistemology on the model of 'ontology', to designate that branch of philosophy which aims to discover the meaning of knowledge, and called it the 'true beginning' of philosophy. The word is equivalent to the German concept Wissenschaftslehre, which was used by Fichte and Bolzano for different projects before it was taken up again by Husserl. French philosophers then gave the term épistémologie a narrower meaning as 'theory of knowledge [théorie de la connaissance].' E.g., Émile Meyerson opened his Identity and Reality, written in 1908, with the remark that the word 'is becoming current' as equivalent to 'the philosophy of the sciences.'[5]

That's why philosophy came before science. 'Cuz nature is in the middle of copying art. And we confuse ourselves 'cuz the Universe was here b4 we were. With science, we look outside us to find us....but it's futile 'cuz it's not there.
I totally hate artists who paint for $. They resign to the saying that anything worth doing is worth doing for $. It's not true. That's a capitalist talking. The bohemienne makes art to display what she's discovered in her search for her. And she knows deep down that the last poem or the last oil will never-ever be painted....or penned.
I'm starting to cry right now & I don't really know why....tears of wonder ?....I think so.
Nice post.
Sulphur and Sodium comes from supernovas, and about 0,5 % of a human body is made from that.
I think it's pretty neat I'm made of stuff that originated in a supernova.
So I don't think science is completely un-aestetic.
Why is it so important if we are from supernova.Unless animal and plants don't have sulphur and sodium.Then human are special.
Moreover,sulphur have been found in volcanoes.

This forum sucks for images :) So many images don't work for no reason.
Try saving the image to your computer, then embedding it from your own copy. This works more consistently than embedding using a URL.

The significance is that it provides part of the sequence of events that led to us, most of which are quite well understood. This mechanism is important because nuclear physics calculations lead to the conclusion that the Big Bang only created the very lightest elements. This is because forming the heavier ones requires a long time in a certain range of temperatures.
So it is enlightening that a well-understood mechanism for making all the heavier elements exists: supernovae. So the sulphur from volcanoes came from supernovae as well, like all the elements on Earth except the hydrogen and a little lithium (the original helium was probably all lost: helium on Earth now arises from the alpha radiation from very heavy elements).

You are hopelessly lost in rhetoric. If you had paid attention in class then. you might understand the literal and grammatical meaning of my words that are clearly beyond your understanding. According to Tesla's theory of dynamic gravity, space itself does NOT curve everything else from photons to planets curve but "empty space" cannot curve. I you accept the Ether Theory (meaning space is NOT empty after all) then, the Ether is a fixed matrix that cannot curve. Either way you look at it you lose. 1, TRO or GR, says space is empty or, in other words between mass is emptiness/nothing. NOTHING cannot "curve" around anything because it is NOTHING, Einstein. If you believe in Tesla's Ether physics, the Matrix also cannot curve since a Matrix must be constant or it does not exist (again, back yo NOTHING, Einstein).
I looked up Tesla's gravitational theory.
In fact, it doesn't exist - he neever published it. He just mentioned it in a letter, but there's no real formulation, no equations, no thing.
It's just not a theory of gravity without equations, because you need those to make calculations so you can make observation. Calling some comments he made to a friend for a theory of gravity is like calling this post I'm writing here a multi volume groundbreaking novel.
Just wondering, do you believe in observation and experments at all?
They come out in support or TOR. You can see space curving, so it curves. Because you can see the curvature, you know the fixed ether doesn't exist.
If the Aether ever gets a comeback, it's going to be a curving Aether.
(The Ether was btw invented by Newton.)
Tesla "neever" published his equations.
Well OK then Cone-Head, we will make him Narfel the Garthock!
NOooooo Conehead, we won't be able to return to Planet Nebulak unless we take him hostage, the Evolutionists want us to trade him for Einstein!
If we are forced to use Einstein's theory we will never return to Nebulak, we will travel in a circle and end up back here with the Flatheads. These primitive creatures believe they morphed from Apes Haha ... haha
hahaha
haha .... hahahahaha .... haha .... hahaha
Please post the personal equations of, Newton, Galileo and Archimedes.
Maybe we should seek help from the Apes, they are much smarter than their descendants, Conehead.
You're getting weird.

Tesla's theory on gravity - nowhere

I guess it is a matter of taste. Yeah animals have the same elements I guess, but it's not important for me. I don't really feel humans need to be special.
For me the Supernovathing is aestethic in a "everything is connected" kind of way. I got pretty surprised that I, personally, is connected to a Supernova because of the stuff my body is made of.

That's what it means? :)
I'm starting to think you are a troll :)
Anyway, yes, the outlook doesn't look good for Tesla's theory of gravity. Not only is it wrong, because it denies the curvature of space which has been observed, but it further more doesn't even exist because it got stolen.
This doesn't prevent Celot from thinking it is a scandal the world's physicist does not ponder a stolen non-existing theory than doesn exist in print anywhere :)
I wish I could say I have a clue what you guys are talking about.
You just said it got stolen. So you changed your mind again and now it isn't stolen anymore or what? :)
"The math is irrelevant" LOL!

:)
No. Being one of the greatest engineers and inventors ever does not mean one lifetime's work exceeds that of all other humans. There are large numbers of really important inventions in fields Tesla did exactly nothing in.
You jackasses are hopelessly lost in your "science" falsely so-called.
Scientific knowledge works every day of the way, you abusive fellow.
You are arrogant, incorrigible and beyond the reach of honest critical thinking. You are the only plausible evidence that man indeed descended from monkeys.
It is no surprise to me that you are ignorant of biology as well. And there is exactly no arrogance in recognising the advances made by thousands of people in advancing the knowledge of mankind. Rather, that is sanity.
What, me weird? Why not, I just decided that it might be helpful to descend to your level of thinking, Conehead.
You deny a wide range of scientific knowledge while demonstrating flimsy knowledge of the subjects. Fear not, descent is not needed.
