JREF is filled with many informed people who are true "critical thinkers" and rationalists. When I say this, I'm excluding the "conspiracy theory" sub-forum. That part seems to attract people that, well, are personally and intellectually fallacious. Some more than others. I do enjoy the work of exposing psychic frauds and the debate on creation vs. evolution, no harm there, and beneficial to many. Overall though, many JREF skeptics seemed to be misinformed on MANY subjects, even outside the scope of 9/11. Many posts there deal with material that has long been either discovered or discussed. I've heard lectures also by young "skeptics" that visit colleges and give their "hey guys, everything is very simple here" on issues of immense complexity and scale, and where MASSIVE amounts of data are omitted. I believe that being too "broad minded" can hurt in the end, but myopic views tend to hurt just as much. Couple that with childish attitudes and cult behavior? Not my kind of people, but hey....to each his own. Edited by Citizen Pawn, Mar 10 2008, 04:26 AM.
