Exactly.

The willingness to admit when one was previously wrong, instead of stubbornly digging one's heels in, is what counts in my book. The first takes courage and faith, the latter ignorance and fear (i.e. cognitive dissonance). Hey- at least DW actually responds to comments where people are calling him out. May not be the best response, but it is better than completely ignoring it.

Oh- and just in case you didn't notice- the willingness of the "mainstream" ANYTHING to spew BS requires more salt than is in the whole earth! No harsh words for the doctors who told millions of women that it was a good idea to tear out their female parts, and start taking hormone replacement? What about the government agencies that nodded and smiled while people borrowed more money than they could afford before the financial crisis? Re-election time for those fatcats? And since we're on a roll, don't forget to mention the BS that gets spewed from all the churches, etc. on a weekly basis. You know... the part that says all you need to do is "believe in Jesus" and you are saved? Those guys get a free pass to spread BS till the cows come home, but Fulford and Wilcock better not utter a word of falsehood? Hmm, that sounds like quite a strong bias to me.

My question for zenmaster would be: Who in your past experience fed you so much BS that you feel compelled to defend yourself against it, at all costs?
