Most people dont have the capacity for critical thought on every area of ambiguity/complexity. Its too wide a thought surface, and we have too few hours in a day. So we have things like dictionaries in our minds, filled with information via lots of sources from childhood, tv, peers, etc. Human brains arent logical, they are mostly look up systems.

- mistermann 6y ago> Most people dont have the capacity for critical thought on every area of ambiguity/complexity. a) Is critical thinking on "every area of ambiguity/complexity" a true requirement, with respect to the article? b) How do you think you know what people are or not capable of, especially since we've made practically no effort whatsoever to teach these skills?
- godelski 6y ago> Most people don't have the capacity for critical thought on every area of ambiguity/complexity. I'd change that to "most people haven't been taught to think critically". It's clear that the average person has the mental capacity, genetic variations in intelligence aren't that large.
