This whole "Law of Attraction" thing really bothers me on the show. I've been meaning to call in or start on thread about it for a while now, but I guess I'll just rant here.
As I see it, as lovers of freedom and liberty, we have all used the tools of rational thought and logic to strip the veil of legitimacy away from coercive government.
Reason and logic are strongly on liberty's side, and we have all sharpened our mental tools by defending it as such. With our tools we have broken down the pseudosciences of not just government, but democracy and collectivism as well.
We are skeptics of government. But my skepticism doesn't stop there. I use the same tools that have led me to believe that government is not valid to weigh the validity of many other things, including big foot, chem trails, lizard men, and the law of attraction.
It saddens me on a personal level to see someone like Ian, who I know has the tools to see through such nonsense, fall into the so-called "law of attraction". If it is something Ian believes in, that's fine with me, I just don't really like hearing about it, and I certainly don't like Ian professing it as truth to people on the radio who trust him and believe what he says.
"Seeing it work in your own life" isn't proof enough for anything to be considered truth. I wish Ian would raise his standard of evidence in regards to the law of attraction and maybe apply some of those logical fallacies he (and I) seem to love.
I'd love to get your thoughts on this Ian. Thanks.
