18.16-《超越感觉》-形成判断-处理可能性1

Despite our best efforts to investigate issues, sometimes we cannot accumulate sufficient evidence to arrive at a judgment witn certainty. This is especially true with controversial issues.
尽管我们尽最大的努力去调查问题，但有时我们无法积累足够的证据来做出肯定的判断，尤其是对有争议的问题上。

• At such times, the irresponsible often raise their voice, choose more forceful words, and pretend certainty.
  在这个时候，不负责任的人通常提高他们的音量，选择更有强迫性的词语，假装肯定。

• That is a grave mistake, first becuase the pretense seldom fools good thinkers, but, more important, because it is intellectually dishonest.
  这是一个严重的错误，首先是因为装腔作势很少能愚弄好的思考者，但，更重要的是，这在智力上是不诚实的。
