"不过是一些“知识赝品”和“时髦的胡说”。"

"每一个后现代文本都充斥着胡说,刘军这一篇自然也不例外。"

To be precise, Alan Sokal never say postmodern theories are nonsense. He is far more modest than this. He just aimed at uncovering the abuse of science in some post modern text, e.g. mispresenting the theory or extending science/math thoery into the humanitics without giving rigorous justification. (Ooop, Prof.Jiao also make make generalization of "每一个"without giving rigorous justification). Sokal himself is very modest and prudential. He only points out what he knew to be wrong, without claiming the validity of others. True, it helps to less the validity of those works, and even the credit of THOSE authors. For those thoeries without using any science metaphors and by other authors, you must give out clear reasons why they are nonsense. It seems Prof.Jiao also needs to resort to the authority. At least, clutural relativism would work well as an approximation to a certain degree.

No, I am not defensing postmodernism. I don't really understand it myself. I am not in the position to say anything on philosophy. But I hate the belligerent tone such as "揭露".
