        Somehow, we have been convinced that understanding our world is directly at odds with religious faith... that ignorance is spiritual.

        2/2 People choose to believe those that content aggregate rather than content create, with pseudo facts on social media, rather than learn.

        Science must resort to politics to combat dumbing down effect of religion.
