I’m inoculated more for certain types for sure - but it’s based on what I’ve been around already. I do think certain types of people - analytical types are slightly better at spotting it & avoiding & the types that just love to learn & to change their minds based on scientific evidence. To me that’s all we can hope for.

If your idea of truth though comes from a god or spirit then you are just stumbling in the dark.

Yes, but what if the science is full of propaganda?

For science journalism sure? Maybe some shit with pharma. But in general not really unless you mean like education which may or may not be counted depending on definition.

What I can say is that Bill Nye and Kent Hovind are entirely different forms if they are both propaganda. Also one of them is infinitely more harmful than the other and it ain't the man with the catchy theme song.

I'm not anti science but you have to follow the money. Who are paying for the studies no matter where they're done? I believe in science as a process of learning and science is telling me there are a lot of mistakes and bias in science. Of course not all of them, but enough to take it all with a grain of salt.

You're a fucktard, aren't you Kent?
