The Magic Pudding..

Quote from: Icarus on May 29, 2024, 06:12:46 AM:felix:  My nation has some serious problems wrought by millions who know no better.

Did it used to be better?
If so what happened?
If you suffer from cosmic vertigo, don't look.

Icarus

Yes, it used to be better!

My nation has a population of about 330,000.000.  A significant proportion of then have the poorest of analytic skills. That is not the worst of it. A hefty proportion of them are proud to announce that they have made up their minds and no amount of persuasion will change their minds. Education is for the Hoity Toity and there is no real reason for them to get an education. 

Few of those people have ever read a book, they do not subscribe to newspapers,  If they, did they would only peruse the comic strips. They are conspiracy theorists who are convinced that elections are stolen and the theft is arranged and financed by Jewish oligarchs.............And one  more outstanding trait is that they believe that the bible is the absolute and indisputable word of God. However, they have never actually read their bible. They leave that to the preacher person who extracts money from them on Sundays and Wednesdays. Halleluia brother let us pray.

Here we have evidence of our intellectual shortcomings.
