That River In Egypt

Normally, I'd post this on that other blog, but I can't get to Blogger anymore, so I'll put it here.

From NewScience:

Here's a hypothesis: denial is largely a product of the way normal people think. Most denialists are simply ordinary people doing what they believe is right. If this seems discouraging, take heart. There are good reasons for thinking that denialism can be tackled by condemning it a little less and understanding it a little more.
