I guess I gave up on a large part of the public being able to do logical reasoning in an acceptable manner when I realized over half the population believed there is an all-knowing being in the sky who controls everything. If they’ll believe that, they’ll believe anything. Believing what Trump says is small potatoes compared to the Bible.[/quote]
Yeah, there is that. I’ve kind of dealt with that the same way. It’s human nature that most people will believe in a god of some sort.
I might’ve mentioned this here previously, but I read the other day some guy said, “the human brain didn’t evolve to ascertain the truth. It evolved to survive.” That makes a lot of sense and explains a lot of things. But it seems to me we should be able to use reason, science, logic, etc. to ascertain something closer to the truth than what our instincts tell us.
