education is much more indoctrination in an agenda than teaching how to

that this guys students are going to be unbale to think their way through
anything he says? Or just the outrageous stuff?

Google Gary Schwarz. Or Nobel laureate Brian Josephson. Both whackos.

And their influence on the young people is...what, exactly?

They'll be influenced by bull**** pseudoscience. That was *your* point, no?
Bad profs unduly influencing the sponge-like minds of both undergrad and
grad students?
