Guest guest Posted May 14, 2001 Report Share Posted May 14, 2001 The Science of measuring humans ability. The amount of influences on the creation and development of an individual whether genetic or cultural are immeasurable. You can draw up statistics, and plot possible outcomes. You can classify people as a member of this or that group. Boy, Girl, Young, Old, Trustworthy, Deviant, Evil, Good, Selfish, Kind, Creative, Rational, Colourful, boring......etc etc.... Chaos is the creator, the senses (pleasure/displeasure steer the cruise)....we are all spastifications of amoeba, with egos that touch the sky. Destined to die with ruler and compass in hand.
