This is a reply to: 245
Why do you see creativity as an opposite to logical and scientific? I am a programmer which is viewed of as logical and scientific and I certainly do analyze things, but the fact of the matter is if you don't have creativity you will never be a good programmer. While good logic skills are essential, you can't figure out how to make new things without being creative. In fact, I have discovered that the majority of really good programmers are also musicians.

This is really true of any scientific field too. Without creativity, a mathmatician would not think of a new way to prove a thoerom, nor would a doctor discover a new way to cure a disease. All of the technology that we enjoy today is a result of creativity.

Now there are certainly people who use logic and science as a means to disparage things that they don't understand and are afraid of, but that's not being logical, that's just being fearful.

I'm making no judgements here and mean no offence to anyone, I'm just interested in what everyone thinks.
