A duff attitude toward evidence

"The problem with flat-earthers, creationists, homeopaths, and the rest is not so much that they have a duff conception of truth as that they have duff attitudes toward evidence."

– Simon Blackburn, Truth’s Caper ($), The New Republic, Aug. 13, 2008, p. 40, at 43 (reviewing Beyond the Hoax: Science, Philosphy and Culture, by Alan Sokal).

    Because the book apparently reveals post-modernism as the fool’s errand it is. I haven’t read the book, but I liked what I saw in the New Republic review, and also in the Amazon.com user reviews.
