APS Observer – Fighting Truthiness with Critical Thinking

APS Observer – Fighting Truthiness with Critical Thinking:
Poor critical thinkers can be easily manipulated into believing in such things as the existence of weapons of mass destruction in a country and subsequently led into destructive actions because the belief feels right. We can develop into good critical thinkers by initially recognizing the characteristics of good thinking as well as truthiness roadblocks to critical thought.

Damned truthiness, feels so good, thinks so bad… Ah, but you can catch more minds with a Bit O’Honey than you can with a bit o’ logic.
