| We're in an age where, at least in this country, information is very easily and readily accessible. That doesn't make it all true, but at least there's enough that the average person could research and make their own conclusions about things.
So if people are dumb, it's their own fault.
As a side-note... The fact that people don't believe in evolutionary theory doesn't make them stupid. And being "intellectual", while it certainly has its merits, doesn't always mean you should question everything. It means you should draw your own conclusions about things, and sometimes that conclusion is to stay quiet because we simply don't know it all. |
