[QUOTE="Dog Moon, post: 8225359, member: 23023"] I read this quote once that basically said, "I don't mind giving part of my money for the school systems even though I don't have any kids. It's because I don't want to live in a country full of stupid people." I felt that surprisingly accurate. Our education is where people are supposed to learn about critical thinking and SCIENCE. It's amazing how people don't believe in science anymore or understand how science can change once new evidence is found out about something. Like how the earth was believed to be flat and has been proven to be round... except there are still flat-earthers! Which makes no sense to me. Although sometimes I wonder... what if knowledge was reversed? What if all the fringe conspiracy theorists are correct and we are the foolish ones for not listening? What if the Jewish space laser in the sky actually did cause the forest fires in California? What if covid really was a hoax? What if the earth was flat? What if there actually was a conspiracy to give Biden the election and was so deeply and skillfully hidden that no proof could be found out? What if WE are the ones who truly aren't good at critical thinking? I know, seems unlikely, but every once in a while, life just seems unreal to me and I begin to question everything. Guess it's easy for me since as a person who enjoys writing, when I have time to think, I alternate between thinking of reality and of one of the many worlds I've created due to novels or campaign settings. "What if" questions are fun. :) [/QUOTE]
