logic about history

Some people say that history is a little girl, and let future generations dress up; so what is the truth of history becomes the world's always a little question: is it true?

Yes, we need to look at the opinions of others dialectically, even if the other party is an authority; but we cannot doubt everything and deny everything; after all, most of them are facts.

If the other party is just to satisfy his own cleverness, for example: How do you know that the Americans have gone to the moon? I'm really speechless, but I don't need to argue with the other side either, because it doesn't matter to me whether it's ordinary or not. I remain silent, but I secretly choose to trust authority over ordinary "little smarts."

But for a person who is an authority (or potential authority) in itself, can he succumb to pressure or his own ego and make history? Then look at his character, such as Owen in this movie, such as the historians of some former emperors in history!

"Logic", the back and forth between the lawyers on both sides of this movie is the PK of intelligence. Many times the devil is more cunning than the wise man. In fact, it is very difficult for the judge, because the logic of the devil is also normal logic! Therefore, the logic of the judge is required to be fair. Looking at it, my feeling is that the defense's logic has found the fault of Owen's logic, and it is also clever, but at this time he can't justify himself, but he still doesn't think he is wrong, but he admits that he lost the lawsuit (also the last sentence of the judge’s last question).

    Anthony Julius: What did I think? I thought it was the most boring morning we've had in court so far.

    Deborah Lipstadt: My God, you love to be contrary.

    Anthony Julius: Well, the man's an anti-Semite and a racist. It's like having shit on your shoe. You wipe it off. You don't study it.
