Scott Douglas Jacobsen: Or to appeal to a majority religious view, probably, one of the most prominent intellectuals in the world, even more than people like Noam Chomsky, are people like Fethullah Gulen. He’s a creationist. He has a massive following. This is pervasive throughout. You can find this from evangelical Christians in America.
Rick Rosner: Some aspects in Canada, not too much. Basically, these are various degrees of wrong. And so, basically, since a couple hundreds year, a few hundred years ago, we have a methodology. This is wrong. This is a person deluding their self. this is why we have confirmation bias or availability heuristic and so on, or it is this person who is an outright charlatan that James Randi outed like Uri Geller or that preacher that had a radio tuner with his wife telling him the information that they had got from the congregation. People that were in the congregation.
That’s an old scam. There’s various ways of communicating information from the audience to the guy on stage.
