That articles reminds me of when I listened How to Talk to a Science Denier. They're fascinating because their beliefs are so obviously wrong even as they proclaim the real facts and flawless logic are on their side. It's a wonder how people end up believing what they believe.

And then I take a step back and wonder...what am I motivated to believe? And I get where some of my axioms come from.

In any case, that looks like a useful book! Thanks for the recommendation.
