Amateur pundits, apologists, and thinkers need to recognize their limits and ignorance. A former employee of a certain organization is a frequent contributor to various blogs, but he makes certain claims that are recognizably false to anyone with some training in theology or political philosophy.
Truly--it would be better if people focused on living in accord with the demands of their state of life, rather than presuming an authority or competence which they lack. This is not to say that only the educated should discuss political issues, but that all should be aware of their limitations and ignorance before they speak.
