Skeptic vs. cynic

The following is an excerpt from the soon to be released interview about Knowledge and Nonsense: the science of nutrition and exercise.




W Noble: Do you have any concerns about some people saying this book promotes a cynical approach to the fitness industry?

Coach Hale: No. The only people that will make this claim are people that are not willing to look at truth and people that promote quack science. Skepticism is an approach to claims that investigates reason to any and all ideas. Skeptics do not go into an investigation closed to the possibility that a claim might be true. When I say “skeptical,” I mean that I need to see valid evidence before believing a claim. Cynical on the other hand means taking a negative view and not willing to accept valid evidence for the claim. I think skepticism is healthy and should be promoted in all fields.
