Enjoyed the meme, but I would argue that Empirical philosophy has failed the arts. Those Anglo-Saxons who've produced great output (TS Eliot, Turner etc) since have an uncanny habit of being English (or American) Catholics, which links them back to the anti-enlightenment. The swapping of high culture for high science was a smart decision in terms of achieving great physical power, but we will leave a less impressive legacy behind than the "continentals" who preceeded us (by that I mean pre enlightened Catholics)
