Introduction

Well, Mr. Ian Greenleigh sure knows how to sway an audience. Greenleigh wrote the article titled "Textbooks need facts, not dogma". When one is trying to convince a person on the other side of where one stands on an issue, it would be wise not to berate them in one's entire argument. A good writer would have the sense to grant concessions to the other side, on at least a few issues. That way, the audience will not be on the defensive throughout the entire argument. However, Ian Greenleigh doesn't show any signs of ending his incessant refutations. Still, he is very passionate about what he writes, and that is all that matters, right? As a good author should, many facts should be provided to back up strongly stated opinions. Oh, but Greenleigh only presents one, maybe two concrete facts. Maybe, Greenleigh should look at the title to his article and provide a few facts himself?
