Art vs Science

From the September 10th class discussion:
Is Art vs Science really a battle? It certainly was in class, but I don't think that either side was clearly enough stated for an actual debate to occur. There are so many different ways of thinking that it cannot be classified as it was attempted in class today by "logic" and "creativity". The smartest thing that came out of the conversation was the statement that there is no right answer. It brought me to a constant argument that I have with myself about being a music snob. If country music is so terrible, why do so many people like it? They're the same people saying that my indie music is crap. And if ignorance is bliss, why is it so looked down upon when someone isn't well-read? There are many nights where I wish I could be less aware. Is the ultimate goal to be happy or to be intelligent? I have to say that I might give up my intelligence in order to feel content for one day. Even if it means that I'm content while listening to country music. There is no right or wrong in any of these situations. There are perks and disadvantages to every way of thinking.
