Know where they got that tactic from? Marxists.

Sucks when your enemies read "Rules for Radicals" and apply the principles too, doesn't it?

What I've found with a few discussions I've had lately is this self-satisfaction that people express with their proffessed open mindedness. In realty it ammounts to wilful ignorance and intellectual cowardice as they are choosing to not form any sort of opinion on a particular topic. Basically "I don't know and I'm not going to look at any evidence because I'm quite happy on this fence."

Is it? Do you have the statistical research to prove this interesting claim?

Somehow I doubt it, given the fact that the propaganda poster was created by Atheists to support their war on religion, so it's the hammer-and-sickle waving self-righteousness of lots of ignorant Marxist dupes that's actually involved.

Lotta work for nothing, you could have just binned it all, wouldn't have bothered me, but thanks for the effort.

Now, I believe I was talking about Marxist dupes and their rewriting of history...
