Open mindedness

I have a sceptical mindset, which means that I don't go around believing things without some reason to do so.

Recently, I've been contemplating Science and what it stands on, what assumptions it makes. One of the assumptions is that the universe acts in a consistent manner (the other two are sadly on the computer on which my girlfriend is currently writing a review of the Barber of Seville).

There's an interesting article on Kuro5hin on this very topic that's definitely worth a look at.

Implying that you haven't contemplated this before. Maybe I'm just reading it wrongly, but this is where I got a) from.

"not terribly hard at the moment, as I've never found any reason to"

Uh, c) is really just a re-wording of what you wrote.
