The Myth of Critical Thinking

[Ben the Donkey]

Ben doesn't seem to like the taste of his own medicine.

I don't see that I've actually got "a taste of my own medicine", Syne. You're going to need to explain that one - and do try to ensure you don't get yourself all confused again in the process.

Unless, of course, you just wanted to throw something in there because you're still smarting yourself. 
I mean really, there wasn't any real reason for you to comment on it unless you had a bone to pick and wanted to go around again. Unless you have another explanation?

Normally I'd be up for round two, but you've proven so far you're not very capable. There isn't anything original or honest about your technique, and your repertoire consists mostly of standard internet 101 responses. You don't make me think, and you don't make me put much effort into anything. 
So, no. You had your chance.

[Syne]

I think someone doth protest too much.

[Secular Sanity]

If Ben thought he was in possession of a certain truth, what would he need to say in order to stay above others who lack this truth? In this case, nothing.

I don’t think he considers you an equal or worthy of his contention. He’s a little more cynical than I am.

[Zinjanthropos]

It's like this for me:

Kentucky appoints Kim Davis to issue marriage licences, thinking in critical condition.

[RainbowUnicorn]

surely a definition of "critical thinker" needs to be outined ?


Religious dichotomy is not critical thinking.
