Is this a joke? No. This is why Charles Pierce wrote a book entitled: "Idiot America: How
Stupidity Became a Virtue in the Land of the Free," which can be purchased on Amazon, and why Marx said
religion is the opiate of the people. I am most definitely NOT a
Marxist and believe in regulated capitalism but on this one issue Marx
was right. Extreme religious fundamentalist fanaticism and orthodoxy keep our nation
from scientific and cultural advancement incapable of replacing
irrational superstitious hocus pocus with indisputable fact.
As one of my FB friends pointed out
Stephan Hawking said "greed and ignorance will make humans extinct."
Scientific
truth cares not whether one believes in it. Science will do what it
will do despite man's rejection of it to the detriment of us all. The joke in the end is on us!
A quote from the link below:
Trump constantly lies and the elected Republicans in Congress
support him in these lies. These people take the word of Rush Limbaugh, a
high school graduate, over well-respected academic institutions and the
mainstream media which neither supports the Democratic Party nor the
Republican Party. It is pretty neutral. They do not listen to mainstream
science. They do not do the hard work that scientists have done to
reach their conclusions. They simply find some person (hopefully famous,
maybe somebody way out of the mainstream of science whose views have
been proven false, an eccentric) who support (or whose words can be
twisted to sound like they support) their views. We have lost our
ability to think critically and determine accurate, unbiased sources of
truth and information. We have lost the notion of objective truth ! And all of this is extremely dangerous !!!
VOTE BLUE, THE PARTY OF SCIENCE AND TRUTH TO SAVE THE PLANET AND US -- Send this opinion to anyone you choose.
