Default Re: Jeff Rense and Holocaust Denial

There are no shortcuts to knowledge. Any subject of interest has to be researched for ourselves so that we can judge the value of each article and book. Otherwise we're just getting sound-bites through the filters of others, which have their place as far as it goes. Rense is no different to official sources on that score. Trust neither absolutely and look into it for yourself. When the tone of debate deteriorates into accusations of "denier" as it has with both the holocaust and the global warming issues then something is wrong with the argument itself. If a position can't stand on it's factual merit without hurling labels at the antagonist -- "denier" -- then maybe it is a subject worthy of attention. You must admit, it's an unfair way to demolish an opponent because no argument is required. "Denier!"... end of story. Case closed. Take him away.
