I fear this is the wrong take on this issue. The rule communities should follow should not be "make sure to get the facts right so that you don't excommunicate those who get the facts right". It should be "don't excommunicate people who get the facts wrong, because you never know if you got them right yourself and if you punish dissidents too hard you'll never be able to shift toward the correct world view".

I didn't say we should excommunicate anyone who doesn't get facts right, I simply said it was sad that people thought like this at all. I think we should all learn to change our preconceptions when presented with evidence against them and that we should help others to do the same.
