Science doesn't have a conflict with philosophy, knowledge in any form has a conflict with people who can write an entire book without learning anything about their subject.



Yes, Bergson is not only completely wrong, but lazily and proudly wrong.

He is either:

- an early proto-Post-Modernist, who denies anything they don't advocate can be true;

- an early woo-quantum-consciousness connector of mysteries, all mysteries are each other's explanations.

Would, perhaps, Mr Bergson be a French philosopher?
