So now he’s saying “Oops, I forgot to carry the one. It’s really October 21st.”
Like someone said, stupidity is an endless revenue generator. Any business plan that is built around harnessing stupidity should be funded.
This is all sadly predictable. Let’s see, if we demonize schools, teachers, education, and learning in general, and instead we lionize blind faith, mythology, and being uneducated, what will happen? “That nerd has a bunch of numbers that say that this is a bad idea, but my gut tells me we should do it.” For example, the leaders of that church in Florida who burned Korans – they boast of the fact that they are educated in neither the Koran or the Bible, and instead say “Our faith is simple”, as if that’s a good thing. I’m pretty sure that in their mind, being uneducated is a good thing in general. The numbers of people who believed this doomsday preacher’s prediction tell me that they aren’t the only ones.
Is civilization going forward, or backward? Is man evolving, or devolving? Are we not men?
