Interesting take on how people think. Granted it's a harsh take on skeptics and debunkers but it's explored, oddly enough with some science to back it up! In my short exploration into the land of unknown I've found myself oddly distracted by people's behavior instead of by the subject that I wish to explore. It's been easier to leave people out of the exploration. This article lends insight.
Thomas Sheridan Arts - Articles: Obsessive Debunking Disorder (ODD)?
"There is simply no grey areas within the concrete consciousness of the debunker or the hardcore skeptic; instead, only a kind of scientific idealism—and idealism, both secular or otherwise, is really just a nice way of saying 'fascism'.
So what gives? How come they behave the way they do? A complete lack of social intelligence? An inability to debate, share interesting banter and listen to what another person is saying which might be at odds with their own beliefs? Surprisingly, their own beloved science might well provide the answer to these questions. It may well be an over-stimulation of the left hemisphere of their brains leading to a kind of self-induced schizophrenia whereby the right hemisphere of their brain has been switched off. Hence, why they place no value on other forms of non-lateral intelligence: noetic wisdom and intuition. "
"All the great scientific discoveries were 'eureka' moments. They were not developed in the labs by white coats working for corporations and foundations. Scientific discovery was not gained by piling sequential 'certainties' upon previous 'certainties'. They were intuitive insights which were validated through the Scientific Method of measurement and constant re-testing.
Well worth the read...
