Ignorance: A Self-Perpetuating Phenomenon

I read this post by Daniel Oliver out of curiosity after reading this take-down by Julian Sanchez.

Sanchez was way too kind.

I've never seen so much misinformation bruited about as "well-known" fact since the last time I read anything by Peter LaBarbera or heard Tony Perkins on a talk show. And the comments are even worse.

I mean, have you ever seen a post with comments where nobody knows diddly about the subject? Not the poster, not the commenters.

I didn't think it was possible.
