先谢谢熊老师多次帮忙解释！每次有人提起玄学，我都是这么想的。我们首先要承认，
“科学是在不断进步”这个前提。比如虚拟环境这个概念，退回一个世纪是无法解释的

不能分清，甚至定义，何为“真实存在”的。但现在，他的观点应该可以更好地被理解。
我自己就是生物医学专业。在我成为一个科学家之前，好多中医的理论我看着也觉得玄

重要的，是free our minds。就是说，什么事情都要敢于去质疑，而不是因为大家历来
都这么说就信了。这是我觉得科幻对社会的一大贡献。我博导经常说，判断一个生物学

我仔细读了这句话两遍，感觉作者不是要自己评论自己是个什么样的人，而是要在字里
行间把自己这个人的特点体现出来。即使说的是正经内容，但让人感到这是个活人在说

总之我觉得楼上两方面都没有错。提倡简约者，说的是对大部分人的普遍要求。写这个
