Finals: finally the end of the semester
Here are some funny essay responses that were received by myself and my housemate this semester:
-Question: Why is demarcation important?
Answer: 'Demarcation is important because we need criteria to discern between actual science and pseudo science. Without it, any theory/hypothesis that appears to be scientific could be called so, and then we'd all be screwed I guess.'
-Question: Put the following argument in standard form supplying any missing premises.
'Grandpa, are you a good shot with that rifle?'
'Does a bear shit in the woods?'
Answer: 'If a bear shits in the woods, it will not moving during the shit period (missing premise). If a bear (or object) is not moving, he is a good shot. If a bear shit in the woods, he is a good shot.'
