Comment on Mad Scientist #1: Harry Harlow by Bready

Oh boy… There is honestly no way you can justify such torture. What does all of this prove? That a soft object is more comfortable than wires? To me, this is not science- Harlow let his own frustrations out on these poor creatures and created unrealistic scenarios in order to make them feel miserable.
I’m certain there are many ways to show that animals feel emotions like we do and that motherly love is necessary for development. This here is just sadism. He could’ve left it at the experiments with the cloth and the wire “mother”, everything beyond that point was nuts.
I’m generally surprised how ridiculous humans can be that they think love isn’t needed for survival. We are social creatures and anyone who knows what being lonely feels like should be aware of that.
What these experiments mostly show is that something was genuinely wrong with Harry Harlow- any normal human being would’ve not been able to continue such experiments.

Unrelated but I enjoy your site- thanks for all of the interesting articles and texts!

My personal experience confirms all that Bart says.
There are two groups of people worldwide that are having an opening in the
osseus integuments of the Skull.
First group is the overwhelming majority and is composed of ‘Accidentals’ of various kinds
obviously from the kind of ‘accident’ responsible.
Second group is a tiny minority and are self represented as Electives.
Human Class based separationist tendencies arise.
The Electives seem to presume they are a ‘higher class of people’ than Accidentals
because they have CONSCIOUSLY elected to self-perform the operation.
But the effects of the Operation are IDENTICAL for both groups.

It’s so frustrating to see Harlow’s experiments hailed as proving something about Mother Love. In article after article people accept his naming of “wire mother” vs. “cloth mother”. Neither are mothers! It drives me bonkers. All these experiments prove is that a pillow is more comfortable than a piece of wire.

Charles Babbage has great historical importance, and I thank you for sharing his influence with us here. I read about Charles in the history books in year 9, but I had forgotten about him. It’s good to be reminded of him.

Comment on Mad Scientist #5: Paracelsus (pt. 2) – Paracelsus’ Homunculus by Ron

Ron — Tue, 01 Jan 2019 10:31:51 +0000

Absorb’d in thought, here oft I sat alone,
“And disciplin’d myself with prayer and fast.
Then rich in hope, with faith sincere,
With sighs, and hands in anguish press’d,
The end of that sore plague, with many a tear,
From heaven’s dread Lord, I sought to wrest.
These praises have to me a scornful tone.
Oh, could’st thou in my inner being read,
How little either sire or son,
Of such renown deserve the meed…”

Lol you’re such an idiot. Yes, I agree that what he did was a little fucked up but he his experiments changed the world today. The experiment was not worthless, not one bit. An an animal who has strong emotional feelings for a piece of cloth? The cloth mother doesn’t feed him. But still the monkey had strong feelings for it. When the monkey was scared, it went to the cloth mother for comfort because it believed that the cloth mother was its actual parent and not the wire mother.
