Defending Beliefs!
#9
RE: Defending Beliefs!
Pseudoscience.

Astrology, GMO scare, alternative medicine, psychics, those types of things.

I've been in very long arguments about these things because I'm openly very skeptical and people like to challenge that. Very often they get hostile towards the end because they realize they cannot defend their beliefs with anything I would consider as valid and say that I shouldn't belittle these things just because science hasn't understood them.
