Which debate are you referring to, MrO? ๐ค Weber vs Shermer. If there's another one that'll be cool Ok. Thatโs the only genuine debate I know of too. And Shermer was not an expert. |

Webber is one of the few historians who have fallen for the denier hoax. Michael Shermer was unable to demonstrate any problems with revisionism in this debate. In fact the best he could manage was to rest his case on an aggregate of points. Much like Pressac's incompetence. |

Where does he say that or where does he make this point? Do you have a time frame? Even a rough one will do. Or are you just bull [excrement]ting again? |

It is in the chapter on denial, in the book "Why People Believe Weird Things: Pseudoscience, Superstition and Other Confusions of Our Time" |

It is in the chapter on denial, in the book "Why People Believe Weird Things: Pseudoscience, Superstition and Other Confusions of Our Time" Right so it wasn't in that debate. Turns out in real life he's not so sure. Like you. |
