What makes a free thinker is not his beliefs, but the way in which he holds them. If he holds them because his elders told him they were true when he was young, or if he holds them because if he did not he would be unhappy, his thought is not free; but if he holds them because, after careful though, he finds a balance of evidence in their favor, then his thought is free, however odd his conclusions may seem.

Bertrand Russell, "The Value of Free Thought: How to Become a Truth-Seeker and Break the Chains of Mental Slavery" (1944) in Bertrand Russell on God and Religion (Buffalo, NY: Prometheus, 1986), pp. 239-40.

Seed gets personal, and asks me to disclose my secrets: Part VI

Category: Ask a ScienceBlogger
Posted on: June 18, 2006 12:14 PM, by PZ Myers

Here's this week's "Ask a scienceblogger" question:

How is it that all the PIs (Tara, PZ, Orac et al.), various grad students, post-docs, etc. find time to fulfill their primary objectives (day jobs) and blog so prolifically?

I don't know if you can handle the truth, but here it is…

You know I'm a developmental biologist. Who do you think would be the fortunate recipient of the first breakthroughs in cloning by the Mad Scientists' Cabal?
