Re: Episode morals that make you mad?

Feeling Pinkie Keen. I'll c/p my blargh about it from the secret 17 thread.

The lesson isn't that you should be respectful of people even if you think they're incorrect? The lesson is that if one day of observation with no control group doesn't reveal the mechanism behind a strange phenomenon, you should accept the improbable folk explanation without question? Really?

I think teaching kids to respect people they disagree with is important, but that doesn't mean skeptics always have to roll over for believers.

Re: Episode morals that make you mad?

Thing is, there's a difference between 'not rolling over' and 'I'm going to do everything in *my* power to disprove your beliefs!' which is pretty much Twilight's attitude most of the episode. While I do think Twilight just accepting the belief was a little odd [though I just assumed to was due to not wanting to deal with it anymore], her backing off and basically doing a 'I'll repect your beliefs, but I don't share them' would have been.

Because, you know. That's more respectful than doing everything in your power to rip apart someone else's belief system [and sadly something a *lot* of people could learn from - from all belief systems.]

I'm all for respectful disagreement. But at the end of the episode, she acts like you should just pretend that you agree when you don't. Or worse, that you should start to believe something because your friend does. It's creepy.
