So who says caring about people is more valuable than caring about ideas?
Maybe the skeptic thinks that ideas MAKE people.
Thus if a person has "strange" ideas...they will be a "strange" person.
I mean...even you say that memes (ideas) make us do things we may not really want to do.
Isn't that the whole point of your book?
So I would think a skeptic would be your best friend...
...they can help you disinfect foreign memes.
And that might be the highest form of "care" he can give to you.
