The Sceptic Movement

Sceptics are good at giving advice about the importance of changing your mind. But it's not clear how to concretely implement that, says Heslop. It's sort of like telling someone to eat healthy but they can't change their behaviour on a moment-to-moment basis. A cue might be a i read an article that i disagree with. That's just like a trigger. And then the action that i can take is to look for evidence that actually agrees with the article. Jt, a sort of counter to our general tendency to onlyLook for evidence that supports what we believe.
