Turning on the light.

Hello folks!
My name is Fredrik Dunge, I've previously had a blog called 'Rationell Empirism' (rational empiricism) where I discussed philosphy politics and so on. I have however felt that I was severly limiting my readers because the blog was in swedish so I decided that it was time for the great silence for the old blog and the lights to finally be lit for my new lighthouse of enlightenment. The name was chosen becuase I'm a liberal, a scientific person (don't yet have the diploma to atually call myself a scientist but I'm getting there) and a beliver in enlightenment and logic.

So I'll kick this of with quoting a passage from the fanfic Harry Potter and the methods or rationality:

"Harry stared down at the can in his hand, the coldness settling into his blood. Charming, happy, generous with his favors to his friends, Draco wasn't a psychopath. That was the sad and awful part, knowing human psychology well enough to know that Draco wasn't a monster. There had been ten thousand societies over the history of the world where this conversation could have happened. No, the world would have been a very different place indeed, if it took an evil mutant to say what Draco had said. It was very simple, very human, it was the default if nothing else intervened. To Draco, his enemies weren't people.
And in the slowed time of this slowed country, here and now as in the darkness-before-dawn prior to the Age of Reason, the son of a sufficiently powerful noble would simply take for granted that he was above the law, at least when it came to some peasant girl. There were places in Muggle-land where it was still the same way, countries where that sort of nobility still existed and still thought like that, or even grimmer lands where it wasn't just the nobility. It was like that in every place and time that didn't descend directly from the Enlightenment. A line of descent, it seemed, which didn't quite include magical Britain, for all that there had been cross-cultural contamination of things like ring-pull drinks cans."

I feel it greatly relates to how I view the world, I recommend you read the fanfic, it really reads as an instruction manual to logic and scientific theory. 
But now I have to shut down the lights of the old blog... until next time!
