Today is Vesak day and we could all be at home. It is raining outside and when you have the freedom to not go anywhere the rain is a joy to watch and I can't help but see them as showers of blessings :-)
I just discussed this Letter to the Forum by Dr. Wong Mun Tat with the Children. I have often told them that they need to have faith in their studies. Radio DJs are often unhelpful casting aspersions on their education. Didn't help at all the stupid lyrics of many songs for example, "Don't know much about biology...don't much about history..." what fools, but hey, these singers are very rich! Yeah, rich and famous but ignore the laws of probabilities and worse the ovarian lottery at your peril. This is the land of Extremistan, get smart, bone up on option theory, gird yourself before you play.
Except one point, Dr. Wong said is best. I think he is off about Quantum Theory. So many of our gadgets would not be possible without it, and none of these were anticipated. Curious and creative minds were just trying to understand what and how this world came to be. That is may be the closest you could get to exploring Eden.
