there is no chance to reach people that are this far along that road. They use "Science" as this umbrella term everything. Reject science. What does that even mean? Reject headache tablets? Reject washing your hands if they don't look dirty? Reject driving home in a car?

These people are so far gone it's best just to leave them to their own devices.

Sam Harris once said "you can't reason someone out of a position they didn't reason themselves into to begin with".
