At first I would have agreed with some of it, because it makes sense to me that people with a broader, open-minded, more exploratory perception of life would be more creative, less in need of being so organized, and generally inquisitive about the nature of the universe, which this article describes as “less impulse control and greater disorganization.” Then the articled goes on to attribute those qualities to those of “lesser moral attitudes,” equating “motivation, impulse control, empathy, planning, and organization” to “greater moral attitudes.” The bias is clearly there in this interpretation, which is one of the reasons those of Skeptical Inquirer aren’t taken seriously anymore; it’s become its own blind religion, but rather than recruit people through intelligent observations, they simply denigrate anything hinting at a challenge to their assumptions about reality.

I wanted to take this seriously, but this is yet another silly attempt to turn everything into Black vs White, instead of exploring the amazing vastness of the colors in between.

Thanks for stopping by, though, to share your opinion.
