UM, YEAH, SURE: Josh Claybourn shows some love to The Beatles, and engages in the following bit of questionable reasoning:
"There are more records, and the list could go on. Sales don't always mean greatness. After all, Britney Spears is selling albums. But when VH1 polls musicians, the Beatles are consistently ranked as the greatest of all time."
In other words, even though popularity is not necessarily a sign of quality, look at this sign of popularity! It must entail quality.
"Thou shalt not extinguish thine anger, but shall master it,
that thy conscience may not be blunted by adjustment
to wrong causes."
