What source of information is flawless and can be believed without question? Why do people exhibit good critical thinking skills when it comes to Wikipedia, but swallow wholesale what they get from Encyclopedia Britannica, CNN, Fox News, the Bible, etc?
Perhaps because those others tell them to believe, while Wikipedia tells them *not* to believe, but think critically?
