Today I want to current events, like start with a footnote. Can not hurt yes, in those days. So, Isaac Newton, the quote is attributed to: "What we know is a drop of - what we do not know," an ocean. This is one of the greatest minds of the votes of surrender of any human wisdom probably agree, has tried to imagine the infinity of the universe practically. Or to make a German tax return.
Enter Newton also right? And if so, you Kräbbelt this a little? Angry They are just like me, that our brains, seemingly a universe, but very quickly reaches its limits? As we carry the German Faustian in us. The unconditional desire for knowledge. Would the self-collection of all the other people around the world. Yes, we want to know how many light years away, the nearest black hole lurks at us. Or whether the cockroach in our hotel room to justify a trip price reduction. And because the world is very vast, we want to preserve what little knowledge can be considered as a truly secure, at least. Still prefer to print the entire Internet, Having put in, because who knows if it's still there tomorrow. The nature itself is now not to be trusted again. So we need every bit of Knowledge that helps us to hit her a trick, save two or three sets. Who knows when you need it again.
serve as the main locations not only Wikipedia, or the German National Library. No: human brains have every useless knowledge are filled, which has devised the sick man ever. And who can prove successful stoppers, receives as a reward a title. called "Doctor," and henceforth he is destined to weigh his people into a false sense of security: "If I have a clue, the doctor will know," says one, and goes to sleep reassured.
Since it is a rude awakening if they suddenly found that a Lord has depreciated doctor. That his brain is similar but the mortal than we could dream of us. Who protects us prior to the vagaries of the cosmos, even if a doctorate is a mere waste? We are now defenseless against the forces of nature?
So I think again: In this regard, could all calm down. If we are honest, but we were all long been clear that the Doktorengeschlunse * basically a trick that will cause people to get silenced without a title. A kind of academic nobility, of his subordinates certainly knows perfectly suited to underpin no longer quite so effective with titles of nobility to new meaning.
My opinion: Get rid of it! Forget we even doctorate! We measure people by their actions rather less to their hard work in rumination foreign thought. Or are you interested in a Ph.D., a seasoned emergency physician if you save the life of an accident? - Exactly.
Karl-Theodor zu Guttenberg was characterized by outstanding deeds, putting all grinning Trittin this world in its place. Question: At some someone here who still asks to Guttenberg's doctorate when this comes close to the lonely decision would bring home at last in a cloak-and-dagger operation, and on our own soldiers from Afghanistan ...?
