So why did I make this article in the first place? It serves as a reminder that we shouldn't believe everything that we hear and that we shouldn't fall into the logical fallacies of believing something simply because the majority or an authority figure says it. We should all have critical thinking skills and do our own research to find out if something is true or not; after all The simple believe every word but the prudent looks well to his going.
