Intellectual pastime?

  • Instead of contributing to
    solve social problems, many social
    scientists are guilty of mystifying them (waste of brain cells?).
    It only worsens the society's
    already deplorable situation.
    Deliberately or otherwise, they are making
    the lives of the afflicted people more difficult by
    preventing them from arriving at the right solution.

  • Professors shouldn't reduce the social sciences
    to mere intellectual pastime.
    By doing so, they are rendering the
    potentially useful set of disciplines useless.
