I was reading this today and I thought it is applicable to the subject of debunking and logical thought.
As I often tell people, thinking logically is an unnatural thing for the human mind. We have to train ourselves against our own nature to be logical and think critically.
Trying to make money by promoting a myth, like Sibrel, or just blindly following what society says is the truth while finding ways to belittle iconoclasts, like Clark might be distasteful. But it might also be just human, sadly.
