Re: True or False: Sociology Sucks
I'm almost done with that section of the exam, it really wasn't too bad. I think if I had a place where I could go and type without having to listen to my lil bros play Lego Starwars II full blast in the background this sort of thing might be easier.

I keep seeing Scientology too.

But see, I started the topic, so I should know better.

Re: True or False: Sociology Sucks
i keep seeing sociology  :P.

communication is just come about recently because the organisms living on this planet have mutated or evolved to a point where communication is necessary, and give it another few million years and communication will probably not be necessary to figure what anyone is saying off-shoot or not because we might have evolved past such a stage.

as for social structures in human hierarchy it goes:

Father -  - Mother - Direct Control __________  <<
           |                                                    \
  _____/ \_____                                           |
/     Progeny     \                                          |
\_____________/ - Under control until Control is Usurped.

The viscous Circle is complete. there is nothing more to understand...
Cowardice is no selfishness, Friendliness is no enemy and Information is no attack platform.

Judge these words wisely and you might make it through this cruel world.

I understand what you're saying but you're wrong. Communication has existed as long as multicellular animals have, possibly even before that. Insects communicate with pheromones. Canines mark their territory with scent marks and use extensive body language and vocal communication. Pretty much all animals communicate with each other in some way or another.

The only reason why communication would ever disappear would be if there were nothing to communicate to, so unless you're suggesting a single conscious entity (not like hivemind mentality but truly just one being) for humanity, with no individuality... no, that won't really happen. And even then there would still need to be information exchange from individual biological brains to others, in other words communication; but if they formed one conscious entity, then it would be more like a networked cluster computation centre. I guess it depends on the definition of communication as well.

Anyway, I don't think loss of individuality will be very probable for humanity as a whole.

Communication has just recently come about as a field of study.  Communication in its most basic form has existed since the very beginning of organisms.  Communication can happen in all sorts of various ways.  There will never be a time where communication does not exist.  How can you suggest that we'll move beyond such a thing?  Its the centerpiece of everything....cells have to talk to each other, people talk to each other, so on and so forth.

This is like you saying a similar thing about sociology.  We won't have a time where the study of sociology is not important.

Re: True or False: Sociology Sucks
Hey hey keep the Mathematicians out of the academic dick-waving competition!

We could continue debating if there is such a line of pure fields, or if it is actually a curve that loops back to sociologists. Personally I think so, since I don't see that much difference between Mathematicians and Sociologists.

In case anyone wondered, yeah, I hate University level Mathematicians for never teaching me anything remotely useful.
