You're welcome brotha. It was percolating in my mind for the past week, and I finally had to do something about it. It really highlights the problem with the appeal to authority logical fallacy and making ethos the supreme form of rhetoric, and therefore the summit of what and who is considered an actual authority. The discussion on ethos then became my next article as a natural extension of this one.

This is an important illumination of the issues that we all experienced and most never think about or discuss to this day. Thanks for this.
This quote comes to mind:
"They must find it difficult, those who have taken authority as truth, rather than truth as authority." ~Gerald Massey
