If it's an important part of your belief system, I won't try to
   convince you otherwise Jay.

   I'm just always on the lookout for unspoken agenda. The more
   polished something appears on the surface, the more skeptical I
   am about why it "makes so much sense".

   I'm careful with documentaries as well. It's impossible to
   escape bias fully, whether scientist or citizen or reporter, but
   in my opinion, it's always important to be aware of what's
   happening when someone is selling ideas.

   But in any case, that's my personal philosophy. I'm
   uber-skeptic. A book does not a charlatan make. Or a line of
   T-shirts or a kickstarter, or youtube videos, or talk of a
   Movement to change the planet...

   ... but sometimes it does. That's all. But I don't want to
   dissuade you from it if it's important to you. I'm just
   presenting my perspective. YMMV.
