> humanities, because it’s humane and person, you study what your passionate about. Stem to me seems like a bunch of arrogant robots
Having such a dualistic, contrary perception of what merely happen to be separate groups of academic disciplines relies upon a false assumption that people who work in those disciplines are, indeed, somehow all collectively different from each other, and that only good qualities you admire are found in one, whereas the others are absent in the same parts of the human spirit.
Are they not human too, even in spite of not having studied in the "Humanities"? Do you believe that physicists, chemists, or biologists have no true curiosity for natural phenomena? Are mathematicians and computer scientists not no less uninterested in logical patterns, sequences, and groups no less than philosophers are?
If you merely value surface-level visible "beauty", and see nothing of worth in rational beauty too, then I could understand why you would believe this, even though I believe that this kind of attitude is nothing more than the product of ignorance.
