Critical thinking is a skill every person should possess. Sadly, it is all too common to follow the heard, to get stuck in old patterns or traditions, and to not see through the lies and deception of the world, whether intended or unintended.

Nevertheless, no matter how you spin it, critical thinking is an important thing to learn more about.
