It's funny, the language you guys use. Almost exactly the same words used by right-wingers and centrists to describe leftists. Is it any wonder that the general population instinctively distrusts our claims and goals? Someone pointed out that 36% of the population believes there is more to the 9/11 story. Your response is to (implicitly) call them nuts, equating error with idiocy (this too, Dwayne, is what I mean by scientism).
