*** There is a easier way to say “critical thought,” it’s “common sense. “ ***
Yep. Same thing. But critical thought implies a methodology, but I agree, no difference.
Agreed! However, the havad types use that term to inflate their view of themselves.......common sense is so back woodsey and no very polished. Fouchibama is an example: "trust the science." Well who can argue with science.....except there is no scientific proof of any thing covid related......except people have gotten sick during flu season......and people have died of covid because covid was written on a death certficate. But no one has died of a heart attack, cancer, old age etc.
Critical thinking, it seems to me, is nothing more than, a liberal said something therefore I should believe it.
