George Carlin On Mad TV - NASA Moon Landing.

[ArMaP]

I understand your point of view but I never see Carlin pointing himself as a savior, only the messenger.

That's how they do it, they never present themselves as important, only as someone that is just pointing to something important, but the way they present it makes it look like if it wasn't for them nobody would know about it.

But the mere fact to presenting your critical opinion makes people start to think about a subject.

It does only for people that already had that way of thinking. Most people just parrot what others say.

Its not his job to teach a person how to think critically, His job was (or at least what i think he was trying to achieve) to create awareness so people could start to look at it critically. At least, that is my view on this

The best way of being "aware" is to learn how to do it, and you don't do that just by following what other people say. If I wanted to spread "awareness" (I'm not, as I think that implies other people are just idiots) I would start by teaching people how to get information from more than one source and then how to get to the original sources and, by looking at the differences between the original sources and the other sources to make their decisions.
