&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;quot;Critical Thinkers Versus Intellectuals&amp;quot;&amp;#039;&amp;#039;&amp;#039; is an article by [[David de Hilster]] published on 2 September 2017 on &amp;#039;&amp;#039;Beyond Mainstream&amp;#039;&amp;#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
De Hilster draws a distinction between two dispositions that are easily confused. The intellectual, in his account, keeps current with the latest from big physics and cosmology in order to be seen to know it; the critical thinker is not interested in appearing superior but in whether the thing is actually true. He offers the [[John Chappell Natural Philosophy Society|CNPS]] membership as an instance of the second.&lt;br /&gt;
