Sophistry is the practiced use of false and deceitful argument to win the hearts and minds of uneducated people. How does one become a Sophist? Go to University and study Logic. Logic is taught in the Philosophy, Mathematics and Electrical Engineering Departments. So far there are 19 known logical fallacies. 'Wannabe Sophists' study these and incorporate them in Writing and Speech. The downside of this is that other 'Don't Wannabe Sophists' will detect Sophistry and denounce the liars. The Precautionary Principle specifically denounces Science. The word "Science" is derived from Latin 'Scientia' which means "knowledge". What knowledgeable person would denounce knowledge? Only the delusional, such as Justin Trudeau. The Precautionary Principle is captured in International Treaty Law. Justin Trudeau is the type of person who attends International events with his climate buddy Elizabeth May and these events devolve into drunkard celebrations of false success. The Precautionary Principle Treaty would cause less damage in it were restricted to Climate Law, the UN FCCC and the IPCC. But when it leaks Medicine, it causes a world of hurt for people waiting for surgery. Because of the PP, Canada is 20-30 years behind adopting surgical devices that other enlighted nations would use. Justin Trudeau is the Mussolini of Canada. Justin Trudeau believes in "Magical Thinking". "Magical Thinking".is at the root of many International Treaties from which Canada should withdraw, including PP.
