Seitse aastat tagasi sel nädalal väitis David Foster Wallace, et "mõtlemise õppimine tähendab tegelikult õppimist, kuidas omada kontrolli selle üle, kuidas ja mida mõtlete." Ent lakkamatu sensatsioonihimu, pseudoteaduse ja lakkamatu võidujooksu otseteede, kiirete vastuste ja hõbekuulikeste ajastul tundub teadmine, mida mõelda, üha keerulisem. Me mõtleme välja tööriistad, nagu The Baloney Detection Kit, ja loome suurepäraseid animatsioone, et õpetada lastele kriitilist mõtlemist, kuid kriitilise mõtlemise kunst on harjumus, mis nõuab hoolikat ja järjepidevat kasvatamist. Oma tähelepanuväärses essees pealkirjaga "Skeptitsismi koorem", mis avaldati algselt ajakirja Skeptical Inquirer 1987. aasta sügisnumbris, tabas Carl Sagan – alati sõnakas ja kirglik selgitaja – kaunilt kriitilise mõtlemise duaalsust ja osmootset tasakaalu:

"Mulle tundub, et see, mida nõutakse, on peen tasakaal kahe vastandliku vajaduse vahel: kõigi meie käsutuses olevate hüpoteeside kõige skeptilisem kontroll ja samal ajal suur avatus uutele ideedele. Ilmselgelt on need kaks mõtteviisi teatud pinges. Aga kui suudate kasutada ainult ühte neist viisidest, olenemata sellest, kumb see on, olete sügavas hädas.
Kui olete ainult skeptiline, ei jõua teieni uued ideed. Sa ei õpi kunagi midagi uut. Sinust saab jõhker vana inimene, kes on veendunud, et jama valitseb maailma. (Teid toetavaid andmeid on muidugi palju.) Kuid aeg-ajalt, võib-olla kord sajast, osutub mõni uus idee õigeks ja imeliseks. Kui teil on harjumus kõige suhtes skeptiline olla, hakkate seda igatsema või panete pahaks ning mõlemal juhul seisate mõistmise ja edenemise teel.
Teisest küljest, kui olete kergeusklikkuseni avatud ja teie sees pole kahtlust, ei suuda te kasulikku eristada väärtusetust. Kui kõik ideed on võrdselt kehtivad, siis olete eksinud, sest siis, mulle tundub, pole ühelgi ideel üldse mingit kehtivust.
Mõned ideed on paremad kui teised. Masinad nende eristamiseks on maailmaga ja eriti tulevikuga tegelemisel hädavajalik tööriist. Ja just nende kahe mõtteviisi kombinatsioon on teaduse edu keskne.
Siin on suurepärane lisa nendele kuulsatele teaduse määratlustele.

when I said 'sick' I mean a bad feeling my friends hid in G+.
I can explain another story when I had two people who worked my store they were different clans but same community. So in msn I was chatting two of online one talked bad about the other one and I agreed then the other one talked and I greed yet two of them thought I belong to one's. So if you again look the first version of the story and the last one you can know it was meant immediate actions.
Anyway, it was great you suggested in today's dailygood though I would like friends of that community to ask and see their points. When I saw some people talking Hitler I could call myself Hitler. And some people would feel hurt. I recently learnt his history. It is like that.
Though that we talked, What I don't like is what people I socialized perceived about me. I am very sure it must made them sick but I didn't know but I sensed something was incorrect when one praised a divine. So I lacked sobriety and I didn't know that the buddy knew something about woman who spoke up. But I tell you I know it could hurt innocent people's but you have to follow the facts that I explained last week. That art was though of ten minutes on desktop and what it says except the money was meant immediate actions. Yes some sort of the story was circulated but those statements were not in me. It is very hard someone not an artist can think that.
So you need to understand the theory as wise and not come as a cranky. I really couldn't know where enmity came from when you send me frightening dailygood. If you could say that something was disgusting I could have solved and cleanness would have worked. You know, I am honesty.
This beautiful article by Carl Sagan gives us a new insight into the pattern of human thinking.
Yours Sincerely
