Theory is useful to introducing thinking in specific ways or upon subjects, but it is not a replacement for thinking. More useful I think is discussion.

it's okay to say you don't understand how a theory might apply to a specific situation, and ask for an explanation. like the thread is here to learn. and you can even discuss it! but blanket statements like "nope can't be done"- wait that's an even better way to get people to explain it to you. carry on.

Celot posted:Religion is a powerful motivator for a lot of people. Poverty can motivate people to violence, but it’s not the only thing that can. Marwan al-Shehhi, for example, wasn’t poor. You can’t find one motivator and declare it to be the only motivator always and forever, not if you want to think critically. I think you might be confusing sociological and psychological concepts of motivation.

Celot posted:The problem is now that the theory can be applied to any hypothetical situation. It can explain too much. Like resorting to God to explain the diversity of life. Marxist theory typically deals with sociological concerns. It makes no predictions of, say, chemistry or physics. It is a very overarching theory, known as a framework, from which more specific theories can be derived and potentially falsified.

Celot posted:Some of the ways of knowing are good but very limited: logic and science to name two. Some are totally invalid, such as faith and Marxism. Would it be safe to say your prior is that Marxism is insufficient?

John Charity Spring posted:the fun thing is that i'm pretty sure marxist analysis of the middle east around 2011 did in fact predict the rising power of fundamentalist religious groups. i don't have any such predictions on hand but i distinctly remember reading them at the time Wouldn't just about any analysis conclude "the currently ongoing rising power of fundamentalist religious groups in the middle east will continue"?

Celot posted:Still doing the bit where you pretend to be offended by the notion that religious fundamentalism is crazy. Weird. Disregarding Marx for a second even modern psychological theory does not support your assumption at the individual level. Peace.
