This is actually a bad thing to do. As soon as you stop empathizing with people who make silly (or even not-so-silly) errors in their thinking, you become not only a harsher, less pleasant person, but furthermore handicap your ability to communicate with those people in spite of your disagreements. In fact I was very much in error on this post for responding the way I did (not that it’s something worth worrying about in this case). Don’t do this! It is important to remember that you are not only not better than “those people”, you almost certainly are those people in some other domain! Have some intellectual humility!
