Being dismissive about it will not help you when you're confronted by people who have studied philosophy, and the profound impact that it can have on how a person perceives reality. For example a PhD Philosophy student would probably instantly recognise that you're ignorant on the subject and, therefore, you will not be taken seriously in this kind of discussion. Every single argument you have made thus far has been from the perspective of rationalism, in which case I have to tailor my answers to suit your insistence on viewing everything "rationally". Please read about the history and philosophy of rationalism; I am sure you're capable of digesting the concepts involved.
Creed disingenuously plagiarised the passage regarding scientific theory from Wikipedia; he did not source it and simply passed it off as his own. Just because somebody has an Internet connection does not provide them with the divine right to "copy and paste" from another website.
Since you are so bloody full of yourself in the matter of philosophy please engage in full disclosure as to your studies in philosophy and name the universities which have recognized your learning and the years of recognition, i.e. you degrees in the subject. Hint: That is public information that a university will confirm or deny to anyone calling to inquire.
Why am I expecting you to respond by claiming university recognition is not required in your case?
Well, first of all, you do not know my name and I am sure as hell not going disclose it to you. Secondly, the information you have requested is actually none of your business; however, I will divulge my academic qualifications to you anyway.
I have not studied philosophy at academic level; it is a hobby in which I partake in my spare time. I hold a first class Master of Science (MSc) degree in Information Technology (2012), and I am a Doctor of Philosophy (PhD) student studying Computer Science (2013-2017). The universities involved are none of your concern.
