"A friend asked a question on FaceBook...Rory,<br /><br />"A friend asked a question on FaceBook today that I can't answer on FB. Can't answer it there because the answer isn't simple, and FB is a place for simple things." —Both of these statements are, as you would say conclusions, not facts.<br /><br /> The answer if this is a problem, if you feel needs to be addressed, lies within this statement made in the second paragraph.<br /><br />"It is entertainment designed for no other purpose than to get you to read it and spread it."<br /><br />If you take out entertainment, a conclusion, there is nothing prohibiting positive fact based information or that it must be false, misleading or negative being on the Facesbooks.<br /><br />Should MacYoung not use his Website to engage people, or you with this blog. FB is just another medium within a larger medium, and it is what you make of it.<br /><br />If you feel FB is all about the sound bites and not answers, then don't give answers. Maybe provide a link to a blog post, website, book on the subject of what you feel is a credible source.<br /><br />To me there are two types of question seekers. Those looking for someone to give them the answer or as you pointed out comfer a conclusion, because reasoning is hard. I like reasoning vs thinking Rory for what you are describing. If they are asking a question, they have at lest identified/formulated a question. Reasoning is where you come up with an answer/conclusion. But then again this is probable me just nit picking.<br /><br />And the second are those testing thier conclusions against someone's opinion they, trust. An Honerable Enemy.<br /><br />I don't believe you should change your answer depending on which one you think you are dealing with. Maybe it is a waste of time dealing with the first, but then again they just might have a lightbulb moment. But that is a desision we must face engage or not to engage.<br /><br />My 2 cents,<br />JoshJosh Kruschkehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09288700371539530398noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-15723446277874724012013-08-18T15:06:47.943-07:002013-08-18T15:06:47.943-07:00I wanted to 'like' this post but couldn...I wanted to 'like' this post but couldn't find a button to do so... *sighs* Tobynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-16230326869336587052013-08-17T20:22:30.874-07:002013-08-17T20:22:30.874-07:00The Internet in general has created a climate wher...The Internet in general has created a climate where it's acceptable to base our validity judgments on what we don't know rather than what we do know from peer reviewed research. The current thinking is that if you can't absolutely disprove an idea, that idea is by default credible because there is a possibility (however slight) it's right. Because we can't absolutely prove, for example, that GMO's have never contributed in any way to a single cancer incident, activists sell a GMO-cancer link as a valid concern. And nobody stops them because fear and conspiracy are interesting and safe cassava isn't.<br />Back to martial arts, and a few blogs back, maybe Judo survived the death of its founder because the Kodokan has an active scientific research group that develops the sport. As I try to figure out what works and what training methodologies are flawed, I get better insight as a martial scientist than a martial artist.Tianoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14473417.post-71365510951991812262013-08-17T19:10:27.736-07:002013-08-17T19:10:27.736-07:00But if I think, I might question.
