The Madness Of Crowds

 I fail to see why people follow like Sheep and lack critical thinking skills these days.  We used to have a class at school which I think wasn't called but was critical or logical thinking where we would debate a chosen subject, Euthanasia was one such that I vividly recall.  Mainly because one of the lads thought t was all about "Youth in Asia".  However, I digress.  

Given a set of facts delivered on the one hand and a load of strange disconnected things loosely tied together as a case, it would be perhaps obvious to the casual observer that the facts, compiled in chronological order would outweigh hearsay and rumour?  Of course not!

I do despair of our people today who cannot sift through details and logic or if they even looked properly cut through the nonsense and make judgements based on hard facts.  But it seems they cannot and they are invested into some illogical rantings rather than a set of hard and fast points.

If this is the level of investment into coming to a decision then we should all be worried.
