I completely agree.

You can have the most eloquent, well thought out opinion in the world, but if you have your basic facts wrong, what is it worth, except trying to convince others based on your ability to write/speak well as opposed to the way things really are?

I actually think this is something that is a major problem with our society.

Some people have confused a well verbalized argument with a good argument and a poorly verbalized argument with a bad argument.

When I am confronted with this situation, I use two well known phrases as touch stones:

1) let him who has eyes see and him who has ears hear, and

2) I may not know art, but I know what I like when I see it.

In otherwords, don't let a bullshitter shit you when common sense is telling you it's bullshit AND don't judge a book by it's cover.
