BaalChatzaf Posted December 30, 2011 Share Posted December 30, 2011 Among intelligent folk not rigorously trained in the physical science, they understand the physical world in the way that Aristotle taught in -Physics- and -On the Heavens-. Here is an essay showing the predominance of Aristotelian thinking among the scientifically untrained. http://www.astrophysik.uni-kiel.de/~hhaertel/PUB/result_IaW.pdfClassical physics a la Newton, Lagrange and Hamilton is highly non-intuitive although it can be visualized in large part.
