Vince, can you elaborate on how Peter Singer is an "evil" human being...?

Well, if you're going to dismiss his work, you can't just dismiss him, you have to dismiss EVERYONE in his field, who "somehow" seem to get what he writes about. That includes ALL linguists, both Liberal and Conservative, who don't all necessarily agree with Chomsky's political views.

This is very typical of someone like you, though. You haven't read Chomsky, you allow others like that idiot David Horowitz (and you have the gaul to chastize Ranxer for citing quacks) to read him and perceive things for you. You're worse than David Horowitz, because you're not wrong or slanted, you're just lazy and ignorant.

Also, as far as the "nobody challenging his theories" bullshit, this is QUITE common in all realms of science, both hard and soft (perhaps more so in hard). Folks like Newton didn't have their theories and data challenged until the 20th Century, because they were these larger than life individuals. You can't blame Chomsky for this, blame the nature of the beast. Chomsky is certainly more open and approachable than Newton was, that's for sure.

Also, time and time and time AGAIN he has been proven to be an Ivory Tower idiot.

Wanna give some examples? How's that crushing response on Cuba coming along?

But you don't have to read about someone to understand them. I understand that Hitler was nuts, that Stalin was a murderer, that Pol Pot was an evil bastard. I don't need to be a Rhodes scholar to understand that.

Right, you shouldn't read them. It's better to be a lazy, pompous ass and allow others to determine your opinions for you.
