Applied Metaphysics............*cough*
The idea that metaphysics is irrellevant because it has no predictive quality does not mean that I believe that no metaphysical things exist. It's just that data without replicable methods cannot yeild predictions about future events. What good is it?
Compare to Apatheism; the idea that the existence or lack thereof of god does not effect the way I behave, therefore is irrellevant. My ethics are based on and driven by things other than the idea of divine retribution or edict.
I can only work within the framework of testable phenomena and predictable behaviour. Unpredictable things baffle, fascinate and disturb me.
Humans most of all.
