Skepticism is the scientific attitude. It's easy to find confirming
evidence for a theory. A good theory has not only confirming evidence
but the ability to survive challenges. Challenging an hypothesis
isn't mean-spirited--it's what scientists are supposed to do. It's
the best path to reliable knowledge.
