BBC News: "The head of the Catholic Church in Mozambique has told the BBC he believes some European-made condoms are infected with HIV deliberately." Good to see that the Church in Mozambique hasn't kow-towed to the factanistas with their evidence! 2007-09-28T08:20:49Z
Ophelia reports that Why Truth Matters got discussed on the radio: "I think it's hugely important because of course what it does, really, is challenge the lazy notion that we can all construct our own truths and they are all equally valid, that a religious fundamentalist for instance is as likely to be right as an Oxbridge philosopher, which I think is an absolute nonsense, a complete nonsense and they expose it for what it is. What this book is, I think, is a redevelopment of that old 18th century enlightenment which had rather gone out of fashion. It's good to see it back." Well, it's not quite back already, but we are working on it... 2007-09-28T08:09:06Z

I am a vegetarian, an atheist, like to code in Python and noodle about with microformats and the Semantic Web. I also have a BA in philosophy from London, and am studying for an MA. My philosophical interests are in Victorian-era German philosophy, Kierkegaard, Robert Nozick, hermeneutics and current approaches to the demarcation problem in the philosophy of science. Musically, I like jazz fusion, soul and P-Funk. My musical nirvana would be a mixture of Beethoven, Miles Davis and George Clinton topped with a side-serving of Erykah, Jill and Angie.
I also write for the Citizendium, an online encyclopedia project. If you know about stuff, you should join in.
