You make an interesting point about humans being conditioned to accepted wisdom and not thinking for themselves, though I would also suggest that sometimes it is necessary to rely on the intellectual capability of others to explain phenomena as it may otherwise be incomprehensible to them.

Hidey ho. I am lucky enough to be banned by Pharyngula and SkepChick. Is this the last atheist message board I can join without being banned?
