Engineering used to get you a degree in philosophy. They connect through the study of logic, a vital skill for engineers of all stripes. There's a chip engineer on another thread that is a fundie christian, Bush voter, science denier, yet, he works for Intel. His knowledge is very narrow.

The ancient empires grew out of a master morality, and the religions of the day out of the slave morality (which denigrates the rich and powerful, rationalism, and sexuality). He developed the concept of the "overman" (superman) which symbolized man at his most creative and highest intellectual capacity............ the check out "untermensch" en.wikipedia.org
