Critical Thinking: The Next Step in Human Evolution | Vegard Møller | TEDxYouth@Oslo
At TEDxYouth@Oslo he will present why we need to learn about cognitive biases, logical fallacies and pseudoscience in school. We learn a lot about what’s generally accepted to be true, but very little about how we know what we know. We don’t want our politicians to commit logical fallacies, be scientifically illiterate or motivated by racism while consciously thinking they’re not. Vegard Møller is a writer and speaker on philosophy and politics. His mission is to eliminate dogmatical thinking. Past experiences include blogging, radio and politics. He now studies philosophy, writes blog posts and makes video essays.

He is very much onto something. His idea of critical thinking being the next step in evolution is something I share, however, he needs to use his critical thinking to recognize that some do not, and perhaps even a majority of us, start life at the same level of intelligence for us to put that critical thinking ahead of everything else. In fact, I see it as the next step in the evolution of human consciousness. We are not as aware of our thoughts and emotions as we think we are, as he explained with confirmation bias and wanting to feel good by justifying eating ice cream. We have better awareness of ourselves and our environment to put us ahead of all species, but we're still animals with core primitive instincts of survival that control our thoughts and emotions at a genetic and epigenetic level.

Analyze critically both sides, pro and cons. Core thesis here.

Google made me a critical thinker... Not University.
Scholarly Inquiry
I dont like that he went over time
All said in a very nice and understandable way but human beings will always be who they are because of how they were raised. Critical thinking should be taught at a young age so the human race can evolve and become better and stronger
as if google is not bias
Well if Critical Thinking is the next step of Evolution. Than we are unfortunately De-volving.

I just can't stand the way he talks and moves his extremely dry mouth chewing an imaginary piece of jerky. Jesus Christ I had to stop the video several times to take a breath and relax. This over-intense look from a white-label Ryan Gosling is just not for me.
