RE COMPARTMENTALIZATION DOVETAILS INTO ANTI INTELLECTUALISM

Rather recherché topic, but bear with me for a moment.


Everyone is familiar with the phenomenon of highly educated, advanced science, professional Muslim young men persuaded to fly airplanes into the World Trade Center.


There are many other manifestations, of what I would call anti intellectual compartmentalization within academia itself.


Some notable examples among the religious intellegentsia in the West are exact science technicians and physicians who nevertheless, in their spare time are creationists on the side when they think about ultimate things or go to church.
