14 thoughts on “Daniel Dennett on Deepities
  1. Just as the sciences can be applied to engineering and linguistics can be used to make languages, theology could be applied to the creation of new religions. Except you're not supposed to admit when you're making up a religion – it is not a discipline that admits any creativity.

  2. I recently heard that teenage girls are the most prolific inventors of new words. I hadn't realized until just now that Dennett had snagged "deepity" from one.

    Just another of the endless deepities of being to ponder.

  3. I think it's his daughter trying to tell him he is making simple concepts complicated. Interestingly he somewhat missed her point. Making his own definition for her word " deepity".
