To stupid people, dogma is immensely attractive, since it provides them with an intellectual carapace that serves in lieu of actual thought.

This is why someone like Jordan Peterson has had such an impact. Simply by applying basic intellectual rigour and scrutiny to current dogma, he becomes terrifying to its proponents. They’re intellectually outgunned by the mere examination of ideas. That’s how stupid they are.
Oh. I prefer to treat them as acolytes of the devil, as this allows me to fantasise about killing them with acid, fire and disease, which fantasies are the single point of joy in my existence.
